[EM] 22 - Truth... and Freedom
Oh what a confusing wicked web the truth can weave. You would think that such a simple word that is supposed to bring this feeling of relief, and maybe even some inner peace would actually be able to MESS EVERYTHING UP!!
See the truth isn't quite as easy for me as it is to all of you people. Yeah you people, the ones with the normal lives and the lack of actual thought beyond the whole, "Oh Magic is a nice story and a way to make a pumpkin into a stagecoach that is all pretty and white!" See for all of them the truth is just something they learn, and then deal with. It's how your son or daughter failed algebra even though you paid for that tutor... it's the teeny white lie that you told about actually paying for the bottle of water as you roamed the grocery store. See those things? Easy. You expose the lie, tell the truth and Phew! You feel a whole lot better.
Oh but for me? Well.. for me and my sisters even? The truth is ugly. It makes guys faint, run away, stop calling, stop coming by... stop saying hi... It makes the guys basically stop. Everything.
Of course there are ways around it, because you could go and try to get their honest reaction to something... you know just to test the waters? Well then the truth turns out to be how the guy is already married, and how much his wife would just love all the stuff you are telling him about.
See the truth? Sucks. It hurts and it confuses and generally? Doesn't set anything free.
Now going without a bra for a weekend? That is freeing.
Trust me.

That'd make you feel better.

Hmmm... I don't recall this.. Jacket.
no subject
When I borrowed your cell phone, you have a picture of you and someone else as your wallpaper. You were wearing the jacket.
It's okay. The jacket looked better on you anyway. Your shoulders are slimmer than mine.
no subject
Who the hell is in the picture with me? I have to go look.
[locked]
It wasn't demon related wear and tear though. That's a perk.

no subject
Some guy. Maybe someone from P3? The lighting was club-ish.
[locked]
HOORAY! That means I can sew it up without fear of demon.. juice? making the seam all smelly.
That sounded so much more disgusting and dirty than I meant for it to.

Hmmm... well I looked and I have NO clue, but I look cute. Although why do I have myself as my wallpaper? That's just randomly conceited. I should change that...
Hmmmmm... wow. That Yellow Piano Music big head thing? Yeah I could have *that* as my wallpaper. Wheee.
[locked]
Mmmm... dirty. HA! You make it sound like it was a Monica Lewinkski Demon Scandal!

I have a picture I took of an orchid. It's boring me. I need something new too.
[locked]
It'll be sent out for DNA testing, and the Source (y'know, if he was still around) would nearly be impeached!
Or something.

I made a Sim of you at work the other day. You lit yourself on fire when you tried to make toaster pastries and died.
I think I managed to create a damned good virtual you.

I should so be quiet about the whole Source thing... because there are SO many jokes I could make.
[/locked]
Wow, so that's what you do all day? Play SIMs? And you all get on my case for the internet chat stuff.

Shush, you.

When the printing presses go down, my article is in, and my editor is INSISTING I stay in the office because I haven't 'put in the hours', yeah, I play The Sims. I made Piper and Leo too, and me and... Me. I made me.
no subject
Did you make a little Cole? Do you guys have the Woo-Hoo??
no subject
Yes.
Hot tub Woo-Hoo.
I should recreate your character and give her the family aspiration. Get you barefoot and pregnant.
That, too, sounded weirder than I meant for it to.
no subject
I mean it.
Give me some tons and tons of safe sex aspiration or something.
no subject
Which of those works well for you?
no subject
Bleh.
Attention whoring it is!!
no subject
Damn, I'm good.
I almost wished that on-fire Sim Paige would've tried to hit on the fire fighter trying to put her out. Because that would've been hilarious.

I'd never seen someone drive, text message on her cell phone, AND get 3 phone numbers at the same time. Your flirt-fu is strong.

But, for future reference, if you're going to flaunt them in my clothes, please bring them back in one, cohesive piece.
no subject
That means I need to remember to take it off first. Which just doesn't seem like so much fun as the clothing being *taken* off of me.
no subject
For some reason, the 40 Year Old Virgin comes to mind.
"Masturbation..."
"Playing with yourself."
"Mututal masturbation..."
"Playing with a friend."
We should make Leo watch the boys and you, me, and Piper have a movie night sometime soon. I miss doing that. We should do horrible, cheesy slasher flicks.
no subject
It's... wrong Phoebe. Wrong.
I actually hated that movie. I might be the only person that didn't like it.
no subject
I liked it. It's not really a movie I'd watch more than a few times, but it has it's funny points. Man-o-lantern, for example.
no subject
Yeah see that joke? I don't get it because? I stopped watching the movie about 10 minutes in.
no subject
And if you haven't seen that movie, then we MUST have a movie night in the near future. I must pass these things on.
no subject
Besides I wouldn't mind movie night, but being subjected to that? Not fair.
no subject
Now, we just have to con Leo into taking the kids to Chuck E Cheeses or something, then we can have a night in, just the three of us.
