Yes, David, tweak those nipples.

Tonight was David Bowie Night with Angela and Lindsay.

David Bowie Night consisted of the following:

1) Renting "The Man Who Fell From Earth" from Hill City Comics, with me nearly getting myself killed on the way when I nearly ran through a red lighted intersection because I was looking for the correct turn off. I am a fantastic driver, as breaking heavy on ice covered roads is the absolute best form of action when one is FACING IMMINENT DEATH.

2) Making a David Bowie cake. Our David Bowie cake was magnificent. Made of chocolate, as the real David Bowie most likely is, David Bowie in delicious moist cake form wore sparkly festive pants, a t-shirt emblazoned with "Kitty" (with a picture of a kitty over top), a purple guitar and a super fashionable red mullet. And, lest I forget, his pants had the tell-tale bulge that accompanied The Bowie in the Labyrinth. You can't do a David Bowie cake without the spandexed package, and that's all there is to it.

3) We also watched the Labyrinth. We couldn't finish "The Man Who Fell From Earth" as it proved to be all over the place, entirely confusing and full of strange Freudian sex scenes. Plus, watching David Bowie stare in wonder at his nipples and start tweaking them as though he was pretty sure any second they'd explode into party sparklers or fluffy kittens chasing balls of yarn or something (At least this is what my nipples do.) was just too much for me. Watch out for the scene of David Bowie screaming at the tower of televisions. FUNNIEST THING I'VE SEEN ALL YEAR. But I love the Labyrinth. Even though it's terribly over acted and nearly everything that Jennifer Connelly said made us laugh uproariously, it's still a great movie.

4) Salad Fingers. (Creepy and yet strangely hilarious.)

Salad Fingers scares me a lot! I tend to tremble and look around me when an episode is done.

It is quite freaky. The second episode creeped me out rather a lot, but ... yet. Margorie Stuart Baxter. It was oddly hilarious.

ImageHi. My name is Sarah
and I live by the sea. I like pirates and vikings and my audio cassette tape player. I am 25 years old and pretty much covered in sand all the time. Also, I like cookies. My profile.

ImageHey Sarah, what are ye listening to?
Lots and lots o' stuff, like St. Germain's "So Flute" and "Ghosts" by Ladytron. I can't believe Robyn is out with new stuff and it doesn't make me want to show her love by jabbing rusted forks into my eyes. It's actually really catchy and kind of endearing. I have been looking up the songs from So You Think You Can Dance all year, too, because it's all awesome and at heart, I'm still a spandexed little dancer ready to punch Annie in the face and show Daddy Warbucks a thing or two about tap musicals.

ImageI'M READING:
Walking Dead:

    Frigging awesome. One of the best books about the Zombocalypse I've ever read (one of the only good books about the Zombpocalypse I've ever read). I think there's something about zombies that is so hard to construe via text ... I mean, honestly, you can only use the word "purtrid" so much, and the visual, awesome aid of comics really helps.

ImageI'M SEEING:
Quarantine, a movie that's kind of the equivalent to being on the Disney spinning teacup ride, except, also, there are RABID ZOMBIES ON BOARD. Honestly, I missed quite a bit of this movie because I spent a good portion of it with my head nestled into my boyfriend's armpit attempting not to vomit. The camera movement is, at times, insanely choppy and all over the place, and those of you prone to motion sickness, you might want to skip this one. I'd give it about 2 1/2 stars out of 5, because it's decent -- I'd even watch it again if I could keep the room from spinning.

ImageBOOK CLUB!:
The Kite Runner. I love this book. It wasn't necessarily a book I'd choose to read (these days I appear to be more interested in books geared towards teenage girls.), but I'm so glad I did. Beautiful writing. Next choice... I'm going to volunteer the Bell Jar because IT'S THE BEST BOOK EVER.
