You're Welcome, Dom.
So, yeah. About to leave.....hopefully we'll be back in time for Christmas. Bon Voyage to us again, all that. Since none of you readers will tell us. *glares at non-existent readers*
Thanks, Gill
Plans are underway, though I really have no clue what they are since this is Gill's thing and I'm just doing what she suggests. Let's hope that's enough. We may drop off the face of the interwebby world for a few days, but don't worry about us! We're just trying to save some guy that I've never met!

I agree...
I like how we still post even though nobody reads it......you don't think that makes us desperate, do you? Nah. Considering we don't even want to be doing it. It's just some sort of project to make us get along, right?
Odd
Hm. Maybe that's just me.

No set date yet
Until then, Dom
(I have a pounding headache. Headaches should die.)
Wednesday, December 8, 2010
I'm not really sure how to put this, but:
I'm not sure when we're leaving. But it will be soon. I'm trying to figure out a way to do this without drawing suspicion. Can't. That's probably bad...

5 ways to effectively distract myself from the portal:
2. Redoing the lights on the Christmas Tree
3. Try to get a halter on Mitchie. She's obstinate, and this takes up all of my energy.
4. Steal all of Dom's left socks and blame it on trolls.
5. Balance my entire body on my shoulders while lying on the floor. This takes a ton of concentration, as I'm not very athletic or limber and I never do anything physical voluntarily. It also hurts my stomach muscles in a satisfying, I-just-did-something-cool-and-exercisey kind of way. This one doesn't work for very long though because when I fall over I don't feel like doing it again for a few weeks.

THE stick
Why didn't you just ask me this morning while we were eating breakfast and I was belting out a lovely rendition of Deck the Halls while you were trying your hardest to ignore me by slamming your head against the wall?
Domino <-- I want people to start calling me that!
Re: RE:
So.
What color is the stick?
Sunday, December 5, 2010
Re: Green
2. I would think of the other Dom every time!
3. How am I going to tell you two apart if you do that?!
4. Whoopee, a stick. *rolls eyes* ...............What color is it?
5. Fans of The Ready Set! Get excited about this new holiday single that I am now addicted to!
6. I still can't tell you how weird it would be for me to see you with green highlights. It would be like me dying my hair purple....and I just got it to wash out from being stuck on the other side!
7. I haven't heard from Anthony/Damien in like, three weeks.
............... I am a little bit worried about this. Yeah, just a bit.
Green
On another note: the portal finally became active again today. It spit out a stick. I'm not sure what that means, if anything. I'm a little worried about telling Gill, but I know she'll find out some time or another. And it's just easier to break it to her over the blog. So here you go, Gill.
Dom
Saturday, December 4, 2010
I'm not sure what to think about Dom's new favorite song....
It was just weird (but also kinda cool just because I knew who he was) when he made a guest appearance in White Collar, which is not as awesome as Psych by the way, but still okay. I never watched the Season Two finale......Wonder if I should? Hmm.
OH! Speaking of Johnny to the Depp, is anyone else excited about Pirates of the Caribbean Four?! Because I am!
Whatever. I don't care about you haters out there - the movies are shiny! And Johnny Depp is in them! What's not to like?! Stop being so critical! Go Watch Captain Jack Sparrow talk to you!
And have fun watching, because I do. Every time.
Lemonade Gill
PS And in case you're wondering, no, I"m not back to normal. Normal for me. I've never been normal, normal, like regular people normal...nobody is regular people normal. I'm giving myself a headache so I'm going to stop. Goodbye.
New Favorite Song

I'm tempted to watch "Twin Peaks" now.

First of all...
Savvy?
2. I also hate this blog right now, but now Mom is being really....insistent about it so we have to post.
3. I am Mel-On-Cholly.
4. I want to go back to the other side.
I knida...
2. Need to finish my homework
3. Want to bop Gill over the head
4. Need to clean my room (but that's never going to happen)
5. Hate this blog right now, because it's making me realize how boring my life really is. Even if we do have a portal...

Disappear
I also wish Justin Beiber would disappear. S/he is just so... frightening...
Dom
Brrr!
And now my throat is dry. :P
I wish.....am I allowed to wish on the blog? Let's pretend I am. I wish something *good* would happen with the portal, instead of always bad things now. The lull is driving me crazy at this point. But I don't want anything bad to happen....
I also wish that Emma Watson hadn't cut her hair, but hey. We can't have everything we wish for.

1, 2, 3....
2. And that our posts from the heart (*snort*) have not been in vain and all for nothing.
3. Please. And then tell your friends. All of them.
4. Because I'm not going to be predictable. Ha! Fooled ya!
5. Farleys' Rusks. Want? I think so. Ever tried them? No. Know I would like them? Heck yes. Weird because of this? Probably. Tired, because I keep asking questions this way? Darn right.
Good night.
My life's goal:
I put very important notes there! Is it too much to ask?
I really don't think so.
Dom
Monday, November 29, 2010
:P
In less dramatic notes ( *rolls eyes* ) I got the tree up today. Yeah, all by myself. Dom was sitting on the couch watching a horror movie while I did it. Thanks for all your love and support and concern, and all that. You show it so well.
I also slept way too late. Again. :P
Stupid sister
I'm worried, okay? Yes. I worry about Gill sometimes. Get over it.
Hopefully, I can get to the bottom of this before she does something really stupid.
Dom
Sunday, November 28, 2010
Can't think of anything clever to put as a status...
1. Frustration. Need to sleep it off.
2. Watching You've Got Mail, again....failsafe movie. ;)
3. Obsessed with staring at the portal. O.O waiting for something come out. Nothing ever does, anymore.
Saturday, November 27, 2010
I'm not sure what exactly, but...you can't do it!
Boring
Sorry.
I'll try to be better.

2. Went to see Megamind today. I want his outfit. And I also would like to have an abnormally large blue head.
3. Just me. I'm so weird.
There is something seriously wrong with us...
Thought I should share...
Presents are awesome. ;)
Dom
Thursday, November 25, 2010
I'm thankful for....
2. My Family. Love you guys. At least today. ;)
3. The portal. Don't ask me why. I just am. I don't think I could explain why if I tried....
4. Tom Hanks' voice
5. Waffles
6. Socks.
Wednesday, November 24, 2010
Haha!
Anyway, I just thought I'd pop on and let you guys know that I refuse to post tomorrow because it's a holiday, and I don't do stuff I'm supposed to on holidays. And Gill can get mad at me for that, and tell me I owe her $5, but she's not going to get it, because she already owes me about $20. And I've been nice about it. So... No post from me tomorrow. But it's not because I've been kidnapped by soon stupid portal guy. Probably.
Yeah... I'm a little worried about this now.
On the upside: My wrist feels better today... I can actually put some weight on it!
Dom
(And Gill has that stupid song "Love Like Woe" stuck in my head now... :P)
*Yawn*
I've been shopping all day, and that always makes me tired, whether I've got four and a half or eight and a half.
And Anna won't shut up about finishing her story....yeah, remember Anna? :P
Anna. Really. Stop. Talking. About it!

Thanksgiving is only a few days away......
It's also really hard not to dive into the portal. You know, just to see what happens.
On less morbid notes, Mitchie is getting *really* big. When she holds her head up, her ears come to my shoulder. O.o
Today is also Doctor Who Day! Guess I know what I"m doing tonight. ;) (Watching Doctor Who! Duh! And possibly Edward Scissorhands....)
So, since I am now addicted to this song and it is a Doctor Who fan vid, I have posted it. Click Here for Doctory Dopeness.
Thanksgiving foods and whatnot
For all the food, of course. (Maybe the family a little bit. I think Tony's coming... but you never know with him. He kinda skipped out on Christmas last year...)
Anyway! I've compiled a list of all the necessary Thanksgiving day foods:
Turkey (obviously)
Ham
Cream Corn
Mashed Potatoes (with cheese, and chives, and some of the skin still on... and sour cream... I'm really not sure what else is put in them. I don't help with the food.)
Gravy
The classic Green Bean casserole
Buttered rolls (I'm drooling just thinking about them.)
I like some Mac 'n' Cheese...
...
I'm blanking, thinking about all this food. And now I'm really hungry...
Oh! And I hurt my wrist today. It's almost agonizing whenever I put weight on it. Typing is a bit of a pain too, but I'm managing.

Yeah. It is. *Smacks self in forehead*
Love Gill. :P
Calm *after* the storm? Let's hope so...
I know that we can't escape the stuff in the portal forever... But maybe a few months? Yeah? What do you say, portal? Think you can give us a few calm months? That would be totally dope...

HARRY FREAKIN' POTTER!
I'm almost glad I was up until 5 night before last (or... morning, depending on how you look at it), because I was dead to the world the second my head hit the pillow. And I actually slept last night! Kinda... a little. But it was more than 4ish hours, at least!
I was still excited when I woke up. And I still am, because I'm seeing it again tonight.
What?!
Dom out

But I think my friend Anna explains it very well. You should go check out her blog post about it. She too is exhausted, I think.

Explanations and What Not
Well, there is a problem that Dom and I were unaware of before - our Alternates (at least Dom's and Anthony's) frequently switch worlds, and Anthony Alternate is evil. Ish. He's got a different agenda than our Anthony, anyway.
So, Dom's Alternate showed up and told me that I had to come quick, he was in trouble, it had to do with the portal, he needed me to come, so I told him I would as soon as I finished this blog post. Then fake Tony showed up (alternate Tony, I'm sorry) and tried to drag me off. I realized when I noticed the weird glow around them and the green highlights in Dom's hair that they weren't my brothers, so I tried to get a message to my Dom really quick.
The put me in a van for a few hours and drove. I figured out when the colors changed that we had switched worlds. Dom Alternate crawled back and talked to me, tried to explain what was going on and why. I got the idea that he and Tony Alternate don't get along any better than Real Dom and Real Tony. Actually - Dom Alternate seemed kind of afraid of Tony Alternate.
They stopped at a MacRonald's (MacDonald's Alternate), dragged me out of the van, and threw me in front of my Tony, and Tony Alternate said that they would keep me there in the parallel universe and kick Tony out of it forever if he didn't stop messing around in there business on the other side. (here.)
Then Dom Alternate dragged me inside MacRonalds and told me to be quiet. He bought me a Big Mac (surprisingly, it's a lot better over there.) I tried to get him to explain what our Tonys were talking about but he didn't feel much like elaborating, so I tried guilting him, and it worked a little better than it does guilting my Dom.
Anywho, my Tony indicated with his wave through the window that he couldn't get me back yet, but he would. Later.
I was not happy with later.
But since I couldn't guilt Dom Alternate as efficiently as I would like, I didn't have much choice but to wait. I tried guilting Tony Alternate too - that didn't work *at all.*
My Tony didn't get me back until the next day, and he still won't explain to me why he had to wait, and what their business on the other side (this side) is, or why Dom Alternate is scared of Tony Alternate. Or why Tony is scared of Tony Alternate.
Anyway, Tony said we couldn't go back yet, because we had to make sure that Tony and Dom Alternate kept their promise. We had to be out of the way while they did something or other that they probably aren't supposed to be doing on the other side.
I managed to get in touch with Gill Alternate and tell her to go fill in for me, and to not tell Dom, or he might start sniffing around and figure out that the Alternates were doing stuff they weren't supposed to. She agreed and reluctantly washed the purple out of her hair. She was put out with me for that.
Anyway - oh, also, Dom Alternate is supposed to be missing. Apparently he did go missing for a while - he mentioned something about this, Tony Alternate took him away, kidnapped him, or something. But nobody else except for Tony Alternate knows where he is. Gill Alternate is completely clueless in all of this, and has no idea what's going on with Tony Alternate. And she doesn't read this blog unless she's pretending to be me, so....
And Tony - my Tony - said I shouldn't stir things up. At least for now.
I told him I had to be back by tonight (FOR HARRY FREAKIN' POTTER!!!!!) and he said we could do that. So, he got me back a few days ago, and now Dom and I are about to go.
I'm still tired. I'm so confused - I don't know why Tony Alternate has Dom scared into doing whatever he says. Or if that was all just an act to fool me. I don't know. And I'm ready to forget about it. I mean, it was Tony, but...not my Tony. And I wonder why Tony Alternate keeps harassing Dom. Maybe he needs two Doms to do his dirty work. Again, I don't know. And I can't get the purple out of my hair.....
Oh, and. :D Missed you too, Dom. I'm sorry I'm no fun to live with, sometimes, but it's good to be back. It's really weird to be able to guilt you. And it's really weird for you to have green highlights.
Exhausted, Confused, Excited (about HARRY FREAKIN' POTTER!)
Lemonade Gill. (Not Alternate.)
WHAT?!
Watch me fall asleep halfway through... Good thing I'm going again tomorrow! ;)

I would say more, be more sociable, be more like myself and do an epistle instead of a short, lame blog post like this, but I'm so exhausted....so explanations will have to wait until tomorrow. :-/ Sorry!
Real Gillian.
Gillian!
I know this is a lot to drop on you guys... But this is life for us. So -- just imagine how I'm feeling right now. Then multiply that by about a million. And there you've got it. (Maybe add a bit more, my math might be off.)

Monday, November 15, 2010
Not Gill
Either that, or I'm just going insane. But I'm pretty sure I'm not.
Dom
Pointless.
Does anyone actually think it's going to make me and Dom be friends and work together better? Pfft. No, it's not. It was a stupid idea. Sorry, Mom, Dad, but - ?! How is this supposed to make me and Dom better siblings? Fact is, we can't stand each other and that's how it is going to stay.
I mean, if anything, the blog only makes us more antagonistic towards each other. Especially when we have to pay the other one five bucks. It would be so much easier if I were an only child....
Other things that I find pointless is English. Why do we have to write papers on stuff we don't care about? How is that going to make us better writers, huh?
Because we have to do the blog or pay money, I decided to do a pointless post, in case you can't tell. This post has absolutely no point. Yeah, it does, but those of you who are not smart enough to highlight don't need to know that. At all. Maybe I should stop, but I'm kinda having fun with this. Probably I will stop in a few paragraphs. You are all free to post comments about it's weird that I don't like English, and about how badly written this post is. Whatever you like. :P Totally, one hundred percent, completely pointless post. (I'm still talking so I can get the right letters for this code for Gill.... :P!!!!!)
I'll try talking about what I did today, how about that? Because it's completely pointless, like this blog, so. I went and suffered through school. I decided to dye my hair purple (guess what color it is now? Yup, that's right. Gold star for you!!!!). I then had to explain to Mom why I suddenly wanted my hair purple. She was okay-ish with it. (Not rlly.)
I then proceeded to trim my layers myself. Mistake. I had a Seinfeld marathon and tried again to organize my closet. Mom came upstairs to investigate the weird sounds coming from my room.
Went out to see the unicorn....she tried to spear me with the horn. Succeeded. I have an ugly scratch on my ribs now. For now, I am going to stay away from the unicorn.

Wednesday, November 10, 2010
123 posts!
Either way, there's nothing wrong with being nice, Gill, like I told you earlier. But after almost sixteen years of constant arguing and screaming, it's just weird. And I'm really creeped out by Anthony. He texted me earlier wondering if I wanted to go get ice cream.
Am I really the only one who finds all this weird?
Dom
Tuesday, November 9, 2010
....
I was kidnapped, all right? I'm bound to change a little, sheesh.
Mad Season
Anthony/Damien keeps coming by, just to check in on us. And when he's not over here, he's constantly calling. After he moved out, an entire year passed without him talking with me. And now he won't leave me alone.
So, I guess I'm still just really confused. Maybe I never did leave the world the portal leads to. Or maybe I'm just dreaming. I really hope so. It would explain so much.
Oh, and here's the song my title is referring to.

Apparently I enjoy posts entitled: 'The Facts of Life.'
The Facts of Life:
1. I have no idea why everyone is freaking out about this. I was gone for a few days, with friends, out of town. I asked my Mom and got permission!
2. Yeah, Tony's our bro. Get over it.
3. Again.....I was *not* kidnapped. :P

Friday, November 5, 2010
Confusion
I just wish everybody would pick one thing and roll with it. Because I haven't talked to Anthony (that would be Damien. Yeah, okay, secret's out. Damien is our older brother.) since yesterday, but he won't stop calling me. Anthony doesn't call me. Ever. And Gill won't get off my case about her not really being gone.
I'm ready to hunker down in my closet. Except that's where the portal is... Maybe under my bed.
Dom
Okay...
Look, I am very sorry bout all this. My friends must have hacked into my account and posted all those...I've just been out of town for a few days! Sorry!

I don't know who you're talking about. I don't know who not to trust. So, for now, I'm assuming everyone.
Don't do anything stupid. Don't worry about me. Just don't get caught. If you're where I was, they won't hesitate in killing you. Please, just be safe. As safe as you can, at least.

Still no sign
Mom and Dad are freaking out. They haven't had a chance to recover from when I was gone, and now Gill is too.
The portal has been pulsing non-stop since Gill's last blog post, it's grown bigger than normal, and seems to be whispering in some foreign language.
I just hope she's all right and comes home soon.
Dom
Tuesday, November 2, 2010
Tired
I don't know what's up with Gill. I don't know what happened. I don't know who took her. I don't know if anyone took her. I don't know where she is. I don't know how to get her back.
I just don't know.
Damien is on his way over.
Until then... I don't know.
I thought this was all over, but I guess I was wrong. We all were.
I feel like I'm going to pass out from the exhaustion this stupid portal has brought on. I wish we'd never found it.
Clueless (Dom)
Good Morning, Monstropolis!
Okay. I'm running out of good blog post ideas.
Well, actually, I have run out of good blog post ideas.
So, I'm going to ramble for a minute and then try to make this totally awesome and worth your while.
Okay I'm done rambling now. So I guess I never really did. OH! I have an idea. :) Never mind. I got nothin.'

All Hallows Eve
My take on the Thriller: I didn't finish it because I didn't have time.
I shuddered every time MJ spoke. His voice is unnatural.
Stupid special effects.
Song sounds uber cheerful to me.
Doesn't get stuck in my head nearly as easily as Ghostbusters Theme Song (watched the sequel tonight) or The Witch Doctor (ooo, eee, ooo ah ah ching chang walla walla bing bang) OOOOORRR Break Even by the Script.
This is Lemonade signing out.
Spooky Lemonade.
Spooky Gill.
MWHAHAHAHAHA!
Halloween
Anyway. It's Halloween. Thought I'd do a post surrounding said "holiday."
So here it is, one of the scariest things you'll ever see.
Here.
And it's up to you to decide if I meant the song is scary, the video is scary, or the man in the video is scary.
Personally, I'd go with all three...
Dom
Saturday, October 30, 2010
So....
2. very addicted to this video. (The song on it...but I like the video, anyway. :)
3. very hungry.
4. very happy to no longer have hairspray in my hair. (I dressed up for Halloween tonight. I was a Star Wars character - Princess Amidala - and my friend managed to get my short, spikiness up into all these cool little braids, but she sprayed it mercilessly with hairspray to make it stay. My hair felt like wire.)
5. Mmmmmm.........................
Paranormal Activity -- don't look now... but there's someone right behind you....
I watched the first one a few weeks ago, and found myself mildly freaked. Not scared, not... not scared. I was intrigued even. Why was this demon shadow following her?
Paranormal Activity 2 answered those questions. Kinda. Something having to do with her great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great (<--that's really fun to do) grandmother asking a demon for wealth or whatever. And the price was the soul of the next first born son. This movie centers around Katie's (from the first movie) sister and her family. Who have just happened to have a son. The first son born since the 1930s. They find themselves shrouded in mysterious noises and random happenstance. Much like the first movie. But it progresses (again, like the first movie). Starts with bangs and bugging the dog, moves onto whispering and making big, "scary" shadows, then on to actually lifting the baby out of his crib, forces all the cabinets open (I really did jump at that part, it came out of nowhere), then goes on to yanking the mom down the stairs -- twice.... in a row, hurts the dog (badly), and takes over the mom's body. I got lost after that part. I'm not sure what was happening, because the light was off most of the scene and it was all just screaming and clattering.
And then the shadow demon thing moves on to Katie and Micah (where the first movie picks up) and leaves her sister alone again. It then proceeds to take over Katie's body (as seen in the first movie), kills Micah. Then (what wasn't seen in the first) goes to her sister's house. Kills her sister's husband. Kills her sister. And takes the baby.
It ends after that.
This one was definitely better than the first. More suspenseful, more "jump" moments. And really, a better plot. Seeing it from more than one POV helped, too. But I still can't help but wonder just why these people had their cameras on most of the time. Aside from the security camera footage and the few home videos (the baby walking, etc.) it didn't make any sense why they'd have the camera going. Except maybe when Ali (the daughter) was "documenting" what was happening at night with the evil spirit thing. Why would you be making a home movie of you talking with your sister about the evil shadow? Doesn't make any sense. And is just all around too convenient.
It's obvious that this movie was made to fit around the first, but still, surprisingly, better than the original. (I guess that's not really the right word, because this wasn't a re-make. But I'm not feeling creative word-wise at the moment.)
So, if your into this kind of stuff, go see it, but don't expect the best movie ever. Don't expect to be scared stiff. Because it's not going to happen, unless you're a total wimp.
If you aren't into the horror genre, may I suggest Max Keeble's Big Move? With the evil ice cream man?
...Yeah.

The Facts of Life, (Again)
2. I did, in fact, bring back Dom a venti Starbucks when I did finally go out. And then I drank it myself and drove back because I accidentally got the wrong thing. Then I brought him back the right thing.
3. No comment about the nice cup of 'mitchie...'
4. I have finally made a decision about college! Anyone who has a problem with this decision can stuff it, kick a cactus, butt a stump, stow it and then eat dry, stale cereal without milk!
5. I think that right now....everything's okay. It's not perfect, but...it's okay. For now. I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts.
6. Except for the missing knitting needle.
7. Yes, I knit. If you call me a dork I'll hunt you down and stab you with it! (Not really, but it's fun to say things like that. :P I'm actually a really nice person....want me to knit you something? :D)
8. Don't actually put in knitting requests. I have too much to do because of other knitting projects.
Coffee maker on the side
(Why, Dom, did you get up "uber" early?)
Because I did. Get off my back.
Anyway, back to the coffee. I asked Gill nicely -- several times -- and she still won't go buy me one at Starbucks. Maybe I should offer to knock it off the money she owes me.... Nah.
I gave some coffee beans to Mitchie (I don't recommend) and she chewed them up, spat them out. And the beans, mixed with her magical unicorn spit, make a fairly convincing coffee substance.
Makes me wonder if anyone would be stupid enough to fall for that.
...
Hey, Gill! I have something for you!

CYBERMAN!
I carved a pumpkin today.
Look what's on it.
That's right.
A Cyberman.
From Doctor Who.
That show has warped me.
And the carved Cyberman looks a little warped.
It all works out.
*Doctor Who "WHAT?!"*

A lame blog post
Let's try a list. I like lists.
1. I owe Dom money. Again. :P
2. I see chickens on the window sill.....plastic ones.
3. I would very much like a glass of water right now.
4. Would very much like to burn all SAT tests everywhere.
5. Will not do the above.

To our loyal followers:
Anyway, we'd love for you to share us with everyone you know. Post us on Facebook, or do the Tweety thing about us! Run up to random people in the mall and hand them a piece of paper with, "domandgillian.blogspot.com/ -- Check it out!" scrawled messily, hardly legible on it.
If we're gonna be forced to do this stupid blog thing (Thanks again, Mr. Q), something might as well come of it.
I'm sure your goldfish would love to read about us too. You should go tell him. Now.
Now.

Is it sadistic of me to enjoy this? Yeees, prolly.
Either those are really hot, he's a really big wimp, or he likes acting like a really big wimp. I'd love to hear your opinion. Which is it?
Five celebrities and how they bug me
2. David Letterman. You're not funny. Okay? Not. Funny.
3. John Mayer. You're creepy. Your songs are creepy. Your hair is creepy. Your voice is creepy. You need to take a shower. Go do that... Then wash your mouth out with a bar of soap and stop writing creepy songs. I don't want to hear about it.
4. Tom Felton. Dude. You play Draco Malfoy! One of the best bad guys of all time! Chill out and be more outgoing! And... maybe take a page from Draco's book. At least throw stuff at people to show them that you can be evil. You have it in you, I know you do. Now show it!
5. The local news anchor (who's name I'll leave out). You're old and I think you probably smell weird. What happened to just being on the commercials? I could change the channel then. I don't want to hear your voice while learning about the latest gadgets. You obviously have no clue what they are. Stop pretending. And when they bring in animals from the shelter, at least pretend like you care! You act as if these animals are diseased! You won't even touch them. All they want is love, and there you sit, cringing away from them. Seriously man, just retire.

Spooky Playlist Cannon!
1. She's My Ride Home by Blue October
I've actually only listened to it once, but....the opening lyrics are especially creepy. O.o
2. The Shankill Butchers by The Decemberists
The first time I heard this one, I absolutely was afraid to go to bed. Just listen to it once....or twice....consider the possibilities. O.o I was much younger when I heard it for the first time - it doesn't phase me much now. But it is still the most disturbing lullaby ever.
3. John Wayne Gacy Jr. by Sufjan Stevens
Here's the thing with this song....it's about a real person. And even though the melody itself is calming and nice to listen to, if you pay attention to the lyrics, you'll be creeped out for lots of reasons. I'm not sure when this guy lived, but he was a vicious serial killer. Have fun with that...
[And now, on to more funnish songs for October.]
4. Bones by The Killers
This isn't one of my favorite Killers songs. But it's called Bones, and the music vid was directed by Tim Burton. It had to come.
5. This is Halloween: Nightmare before Christmas Soundtrack
I'm really not a big fan of the movie, but would it be a spooky playlist cannon without a song from it? I mean, really? Especially since we're on a Tim Burton stretch? My favorite song is actually What's This? but that one'll probably be included in my Christmas Playlist Cannon, because it's more about Christmas than Halloween.
6. Friends on the Other Side: Princess and the Frog Soundtrack
I'm afraid all of you will think I'm a demented, dark person if I don't include this one. I'm really not. I don't even listen to creepy songs like that very often! I just thought it would be appropriate for this month....so no judging. This movie is awesome, by the way. I whistle/sing it to myself all the time.....
[On to the odd portion, which consists of one song:]
7. My Boy Builds Coffins by Florence and the Machine
I really do listen to this one often. I like it. It's very odd, but I like it.
[For you mushies:]
8. White Demon Love Song by The Killers
I actually really like this song, and even though it's actually from the New Moon Soundtrack, I gave you the Doctor Who version. ;)
[BONUS SONG THAT IS NOT AT ALL SPOOKY:]
9. The Beauty and the Tragedy by Trading Yesterday
This song makes me happy, even though it's sort of....sad. Probably because the first time I heard the song it was on a Primeval fan vid. Primeval is awesome, btw. It's like a kid's version of Fringe with dinosaurs and not nearly as good plot lines or effects. But it's worth it.

Gillian did a bad, bad thing...
It dead.
Also, in school, I am now reading Romeo and Juliet and Juliet.
What?
Evil minds of the far less disturbed
I know, I know. I was just kidnapped, I should be traumatized, and grateful, and what-not. But that's not how I roll. (Yes, I did just say that. Problem?) I can't sit and talking feelings, which is probably why Mr. Q refuses to leave me alone. Mom says I show love by being sarcastic and getting people's nerves.
You be the judge.
As for the title of the post, it makes no sense. I can see that. But it's dope. Just revel in the dopeness. It would be a great band name, too...
Oh, and Gill... Have fun with your shoes in the morning.

A horrible slap in the face
Football was on.
Me: What?! No! No! No, this is not okay!
Dad: *laughs*
Me: What's going on?! Oh. *realizes that there are no more episodes of Fringe until November.*
It was horribly disappointing. I had made myself a cheese wrap, chocolate milk, plate of chips, and gotten a protein bar from the pantry just to watch with Fringe. Also because I was hungry. Horrible!

OH NO! I just realized that changing the way things sound is something that Andy from the Office does! I don't want to sound like Andy from the Office! This is really bad! AAAH! Well, I tried to find a video of Andy, but I couldn't find a good one. But I don't sound like that when I sing. I don't. Stop it! I don't!
Oh! So, Stevie Nicks. Stee-vee. See, I am pronouncing it right now. Edge of Seventeen! Listen here if you wanna be a quarter as awesome as Joan Cusack from School of Rock. Just a quarter. Don't ask for any more than that. Don't be greedy.

PS I was trying to be light, since everything has been so heavy lately. There's that word again! Sorry. I like Doc from Back to the Future.
Officially no longer a dream.
I'm not sure where that leads me now.
And I've got freaked out parents I don't know how to deal with. I can't tell the about the portal. I can't tell them where I was. I can't tell them what happened.
I just don't know anymore.

Impending Doom.....Thanks, Brandon Flowers, for that excellently put phrase.
The lizard is staying curled up on my stomach, for some reason. Dom's asleep....
And downstairs, anxious mutterings. Something sizzling on the stove. Smoke alarm goes off occasionally because Mom keeps burning the cookies. And as normal as all of this is supposed to be...I can't help but feeling like it's just that moment of silence in the horror movie before something jumps out and kills you.
Oh, I am so optimistic.
Oh, and our best friend, the Portal-That-Constantly-Causes-Danger-and-Turmoil- To-Our-Lives, is back. Strong as ever. Tested it earlier, and I got through okay. Also, it keeps spitting candy out at me and hitting me in the head. Thanks, P.T.C.C.D.A.T.T.O.L. That almost looks like the word 'pterodactyl.' Maybe we'll just stick with that from now on.
Oh, and the song I was referencing is Losing Touch, by the Killers. You can listen to it if you click right....here.

Dreams and reality
Right? It was just a dream... Right? No, yeah it was! It had to be. It was so unrealistic! And... I don't know, maybe scary.
I fell asleep and woke up in a dark room, surrounded by grubby blankets. After several hours, a man came in and talked about the portal. I was really freaking out that he knew about it until he said something about killing me and then I was freaking out about that. He gave me a sandwich then left. I heard him leave the house a few minutes later and snuck out, got his computer. It wouldn't let me send an email, so I had to leave a blog post, warning Gill. The doorknob literally started jiggling just as I pressed the "publish post" button. Then I went back to the dark room. Stayed there for... I don't know how long. But it was a long time. There was a lot of sleeping. I had nothing to do except freak out or sleep. (The door was suddenly locked. I'm wondering if he'd wanted me to leave the post on the blog.)
After so long in the room and a few more sandwiches... there was a really loud commotion outside the door. Lots of punching, kicking, wall slamming, and cussing. And I heard the name, "Damien." This went on for at least thirty minutes with me hitting the door and yelling for Damien to come. Then he did. And wouldn't let me look around the room. Said it was gruesome, and I didn't need to see. I think he may have killed those guys...
We got in his car, and he told me I was on the other side of the portal. Been kidnapped by these guys who were trying to clean up the streets. (Ironic.) They reached in through his portal -- I'd been at his house when it happened -- and pulled out the nearest thing. That happened to be me. I'm just glad Gill wasn't there.
Anyway, Damien explained it all and it all went over my head. Then he told me to take a nap. I argued with him for a while, but eventually did what he said.
I woke up in my bed. With Damien right beside me. His eyes hard. Told me it was just a dream. Freaking out over a dream. And I was believing him until I left my room for breakfast. (Not to forget the fact, wondering why in the world Damien was in my room.) Mom was crying in the kitchen, hugging on Dad and Gill. When I asked what was going on, everyone attacked me with hugs and shouts. Asking where I was. They didn't believe I never left.
So does that mean all that actually happened?
I'm just so confused.

Update
The “infamous” Damien Zion updating. I know where Dom is. He is in danger, but that can be overcome. I will get him out. He has been taken by what you would consider “the Portal Mob.” They think highly of themselves. Ridding their world of people from our side. They consider us to be the scum of the earth. They believe the portals – the holes – on our side were mere accidents. And they aim to get rid of us one – by – one.
Many times they have succeeded. Many times they have failed. They will fail this time; I will not let them kill Dom. He has done nothing wrong. Neither has Gill. (I can not say the same for myself, but as far as I know, this is not about me.)
I needed to tell you, Gill, not to worry. I have got this. If you trust anyone, trust me. You know you can. I will get Dom safe. And take care of business on this side, so you will not have to worry about this happening again.

A Note to Mr. Porkchop
To Maximus Aurelius Porkchop:
You sound like you have a name from the other side, and you're one of the 2% that can see portals.... Do you live over there, or are you from our side? Maybe you are related to us... In which case, you shouldn't be calling Gill a gorgeous babe.
On another note, Hot Topic won't hire me either....

Promises, Promises
Who Damien Zion is.
But one day, soon, we will get more detailed. We're sort of waiting on...something.
On less serious notes, I laughed very hard today when I found out that Dom was fired.
I really should have seen this coming.
You sweep hair backward not kinda backward! Duh!
Remember this. It'll come in handy later in life.

Wow. I'm a little bit worried about this.
Later, I took Dom's lizard to the vet's office, and Dr. Paul gave me some medicine for him (he cut himself on some sort of broken ridge on the bottom of the fridge. Nothing to worry about) and so I took him out to the car, got in, didn't see the medicine. I just assumed it was in my purse or on the other side of the seat. So I went home, got the lizard (Dom won't tell me his name, which is why he is grandly referred to as 'The Lizard') settled back into Dom's pillow (I did it for the lizard. Not Dom) and then went to look for the medicine in the car. It was not there.
I drove back to the vet's parking lot - not there. Started home, and decided that I should really call them to find out if they had seen it. I passed a turn off back just as she told me that she had it on the desk; therefore, I had to go halfway home in order to get to the next turn-off. I got the medicine. I went home.
Is anyone else worried about the number of things going on in my head so that I cannot remember all of this simple, easy little stuff? GAAAH!
Lemonade Gill
PS I cannot give details about the portal trip yet. Only...well, not only. A lot. It's a big deal. It's not an only. I'm really scared. Something bad's going on. And, wouldn't you just know it? We're in the eye of the storm.
Who'd've thunk?
I get to sweep the hair up in a barber shop. It's thrilling, really; I get yelled at if I don't do it right away.
I'm so looking forward to a long, lasting career here.
No really. I am. No sarcasm at all.

Sometimes.
Sometimes, I hate going to the other side.
Sometimes, I hate coming home.
Sometimes, I want things to be different.
Sometimes, I make lists like this because I'm too depressed to put any effort into anything else.
Sometimes I start sentences with the same word over and over.
And then I break the pattern at the end, just cause I can.

Potentially Problematic Things
(1a. Her hair is purple! What is that about?! Why would anyone do that to themselves? I mean, she looks thumpin' dope, but still!)
2. Apparently, it is illegal for a non-sider (me) to have a unicorn. Oh, I am very passionate about this. You just can't tell because I'm backspacing the angry, Shakespearean things that I keep typing. But Mitchie will be coming back with me - make no mistake.
3. Damien Zion is still missing. For some reason, I feel that it is my job to find him.
4. Dom....your face.
That's all.
I never thought I'd get to say this but...
That's all I can say right now about her stupidity... and her trip into the portal.

The Facts of Life. Accept them or don't.
Damien Zion is missing.
The portals have been spitting like crazy. What does this mean?
Well, I didn't have Damien to ask, so...I did something really stupid. I went into the portal, alone, while Dom and Mom and Dad were all out. I stayed at home to finish homework, and then received a note from the portal saying this:
Crazy things are happening on my side, Gillian. Come on over. It'll be fun.
So...yeah, I, even though I took into account that it could be a crazy psychopath writing me this note, luring me over to the other side for bad reasons (like to kill me or something) I still went. Mitchie went with me. (Yeah...she comes into the house when no one else is around.)
Why did I do this, you may ask?
I analyzed the note. Damien Zion taught me how.
Note's in my handwriting. And it wasn't forged.
Wanna guess what else?
I'm still over here. On the other side. Yeah, right now. And I'm typing in Klingon, but I think it should translate into English once it gets published.
Gillian
Fine!
I would know. Don't ask.
Don't worry about him, Gill. Not for another week or two. If he's still gone then... then you can worry.

2. Had a sugar high. Fun, till it wears off.
3. Became even more obsessed with X-files.
4. Tardis ride. Oh! I wasn't supposed to talk about that... *blushes*
Today I:
2. Went through 1 1/2 boxes of tissues.
3. Drank a giant carton of orange juice.
4. Convinced myself Damien was watching me, through my window. (He wasn't.) He was in the kitchen eating my cookies. Stupid Damien.
5. Got a little bit of sympathy from Gill.
6. Played endless video games.
7. Sneezed up a clump of snot that looked oddly like Gill's unicorn.
8. Didn't get out of bed for anything (except using the restroom).
9. Threw up.
10. Slept for fifteen hours straight. I feel so accomplished.
I've had a busy day.

A bit of Dialogue from Dopest of Dope Musicians.
*Playing guitar in a completely dope awesome way as only Bob Dylan can whilst playing harmonica at the same time*
"D-Don't let that scare ya!" *Continues to pick at guitar* "It's just Halloween!" *Laughs.* "I have my Bob Dylan mask on!" *Laughs again - audience laughs with a very loud round of applause.*
"I am masquerading!" *Laughs harder, audience laughs with him.*
Is Bob Dylan dope or what?!
And can I get a Doctor Who - What!
Ah, Thank you. Thank you very much.

My playlist cannon -- What now, Gill?! :-P
1. Stayin' Alive -- Bee Gees
Like Lord Farquad! Find it here.
2. Rockstar -- Nickelback
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars...
This song is really stupid, but funny.
3. One Week -- Barenaked Ladies
You think you're looking at Aquaman! Right here.
4. 7 8 9 -- Barenaked Ladies
Vampires will have to come up with some other method, because without their K-9s... how will the suck?! Best. Song. Ever.
5. Don't Take Your Guns To Town -- Johnny Cash
Bill sounds like a really stupid person.
6. In the End -- Linkin Park
Doctor Who style! (I haven't gotten far in the series yet, and there's a lot of clips I don't understand... Gill's gonna kill me for ruining it for myself.)
7. Me Against the World -- Simple Plan
I tried to get the one with Peter and Sylar (Sylar FTW!), but the sounds wasn't working... So this one'll have to work. At least it's still Heroes.
8. Joy Ride -- The Killers
I couldn't find a good version with dope clips from an awesome show. But this one is good enough.
9. The Good Life -- Three Days Grace
Official music video. Can you say, "WHAT!"?
10. Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
This one is pretty morbid. So, if you ignore the lyrics and just listen to the music, you'll understand. Especially from about 2:40-4:30ish.

2. Whether or not we actually did do this...well, it's up to you to choose whether or not to believe it.
3. You also have to choose to believe or disbelieve the fact that I nearly died.
4. Your choice.
5. I think aliens are real, and it has nothing to do with the parallel universe.
6. I'm excited about Scooby Doo and the Curse of the Lake Monster.
9. 7 & 8 were crucial facts about the portal trip, but since I'm quoting Feist you don't get to hear them. You may now stand in awe at my cleverness.
10. Dom.....I have nothing nice to say. So I'll stop there. OH! Wait, yes I do. Thanks for that last piece of cake in the fridge. Loved it. ;)

And yes, I did have to do this over the blog because I don't want to leave my room right now, and my cell phone is dead.

Darnit, Gill!
So I'll just rant about Band extravaganza last night.
It was freakin' awesome. At least our school was. Completely original, great sound, great formation, even the flag people did kind of okay.
The smallest high school in town did good considering their small size, so no bad words for them.
However, the one that all the preps go to (they know who they are)... well their performance was great, until they took our school's best thing. Running around the field like idiots, then forming the school's letters. Stupid preppy school.
And the other big high school... Their uniforms weren't even their school colors. And they were going for flash. This stuff isn't for flash, it's for the band. You don't dress all 50 (I'm exaggerating) people in your Color Guard in light blue, when everyone else is in black. This isn't for them. You don't have your twirlers act out a violent love scene between the band members with their fake swords. And then kill each other. This isn't for them either, and this was a family show! This is about the music, and the marching. And that's it. Not the stupid flash. I feel very strongly about this.
Oh, and of all the people to look like, Elvis is the best. So I take that as a compliment.
Dom
Playlist Cannon!
So. PLAYLIST CANNON!
1. Don't Cry Daddy by Elvis Presley
Man, is this song ever sad. But it's Elvis. It's pretty. And kind of an obscure Elvis song, I think. I listen to Elvis radio on our telly sometimes. *points and laughs* Dom actually looks a lot like Elvis, except not nearly as cool. Anywho, listen here.
2. Jacksonville by Brandon Flowers
One of his new ones! I still don't have his album, but I really like this song. For some reason I'm reminded of a desert in the middle of the night, maybe on a different planet....sorry, it's Star Trek and car commercials and my imagination all twisted into one. Anywho. You'll probably get a completely different idea when you hear it.
3. 1,2,3,4 by Feist
This song makes me happy. It is happy. It's fun! Here, have the Psych version - enjoy!
4. Blue Bayou by Roy Orbison
It was on Fringe episode, and I found it. He's got such a pretty croon! It's kinda sad, though....
5. Crash and Burn by Lifehouse
I woke up with this song in my head for some reason. So, that's why it's here. And here.
6. Crash and Burn by Savage Garden
Because it is dope, and when I start listening to it, I rarely stop. Get addicted, here.
7. Baby Let Me Follow You Down by Bob Dylan
It's soft and sweet and one of the best Dylan songs ever. I prefer the version from his first album. I couldn't find a good link for it, so you're on your own.
8. Song for the Dead by Sea Wolf
I'm pretty much sold if a tiger is mentioned. Listen and love it.
9. Any Other World by MIKA
I found this while I was obsessing over Dustfinger the other night. And thanks to Love Today and Grace Kelly, I like MIKA. Here you go!

But easy to sum up: A bunch of lame rides, fried food that I'm now regretting. And a dope concert on the other side of the portal. That's right. The other side. And there were no people to beat me up. What!
In fact, as soon as they saw Damien they all just left us alone. Which I found odd, but didn't question it, because even they seem to know that death follows him. And he was able to get us in and out of the portal with no problem.
I admit, I don't like the guy. Something about him grates my nerves. But he is pretty freakin' awesome.

TARDIS!!
I made my new closet door into a TARDIS today. It's sloppy, and the fumes from the Sharpie made me lightheaded. But it was so worth it. Freakin' dope!
Dom
The Slender Man
I didn't even read all of it. I have read it before, but the way that he lurks in the picture kept me from looking too hard. I was literally too afraid to go on.
I do not believe that he is real. But....if you think about it...if he was.....
BOO!

This is Captain Crunch signing out.

Bob Dylan and coke
Yeah, yeah I probably should.
About the whole portal thing, that explains a lot. (About the circus, and other people thinking we're crazy.) But I don't see what the portal at the fair has to do with ours. But, if Damien was there, then it probably does.
And Gill, seriously, you gotta stop talking to that freak. Death is never far behind him, and you know that. Forget him.
As for my phone, it wasn't working because I dropped it in the toilet. Don't ask how, just accept that it happened.
Dom
The Fair...again.
Guess who was there?
No, never mind, don't try, you'll never guess.
Damien Zion!!!!! So I went up to him and asked him what he was doing there, and he pointed - because he was staring at something really intently.
"What?!"
He pushed my head the direction he was looking. "Look, Gill."
There was a thumping portal at the fair. But nobody was freaking out. Apparently, only about 2% of the population can see portals, according to Damien. Which means that Dom, Damien and I are part of that population. The portal spat out a girl that was painted white with really colorful clothes and painted accents on her skin. I'll draw a picture later. She looked around, saw us, and then looked terrified and ran back in. I, like the twin of Dominic that I am, followed her in there.
All the freaks from the old carnivals came from the parallel universe. That is all I can safely say.
Gill
PS Dom does not know about this because he was gone last night and was not answering his phone. Stupid brother.

A list of important things.
2. I am going to the fair today! I am excited, mostly because the atmosphere is so cool and busy and weird in a creepy, colorful, awesome way and because of all the greasy fried food and strawberry lemonade I am going to consume. Lemonade!!! *squee!*
3. Last night I watched a Macaulay Culkin/Elijah Wood movie called 'The Good Son.' A) And I thought Culkin was creepy before! B) I really hate the kind of situations that Culkin put Wood in. Like how they both know the truth, but Culkin makes Wood look like the liar, and everyone believes him! That's messed up! C) The ending was just...weird. D) You should watch this trailer and become even more creeped out by Culkin's creepiness. Or dopeness. Whichever one. Perhaps both!
4. What?!
5. I'm ready for it to be chilly outside all the time. Hot chocolate, rain, good books, writing, good television...all those things. Fall! Autumn!
6. Always bring a banana to a party.
7. I like making lists.
8. I thought this list would be a lot longer than this, but...it's not. I thought there would be fifteen things.
9. I'm done now.
NINJA!!!!
So today, while mom was working on lunch, I decided that I want to be a ninja when I grow up. I practiced. I put on all black and my balaclava (which I have no use for here in Texas, but it's still fun) and sneaked around the house, being all stealth like.
"Flip the Jackal switch!"
In ten minutes, I managed to scare Gill twice, surprise Dad once, and sneak past mom three times. On the last time, I scared her stiff.
She screamed and threw a raw egg at me.
She claims she thought I was someone who broke into the house.
I don't believe her. I think she just wanted to throw something at me.
But now I know that I can be a ninja when I grow up.
Dom/Artichoke/Judd Nelson/a little bit Maxwell Smart (even if he's a spy, not a ninja. He's still dope!) -- the very successful ninja! What!

Yes, Gill...
Maybe you're Emlio Esteves...
*Coughs*
I'm not at liberty to give details on the scratch...okay, four, long, deep scratches...on my arm...or how I got the cold. But it happened.
Also:
I was not aware that I sounded like Shawn and Gus when I'm scared. But I do. I screamed for five minutes last night, because an owl flew at my car and scared the living water out of me. (Not literally, but...) And I was already freaking myself out. It was awesome.
Gillian
PS Judd Nelson? Really, Dom? Sheesh. Does that make me Ally Sheedy or whatever her name is?

Bushed.
So I had to listen to Bob Dylan in the car to wake me up, and now, I am going to have a coke. What?
I'm also going to watch Jurassic Park II. Is it just me, or is there something really appealing about a baby t-rex? It's prolly just me. But I'd love one. *Runs to portal and shoves face in to find one*

Detention
Five misfits, defying the teacher for really no reason other than rebellion. I wanted to start singing That one Twisted Sister song: "We're not gonna take it! No, we ain't gonna take it! We're not gonna take it.... ANYMORE!!!"

I recommend watching the video, just for how freakin' awesome it is. (Though all I can think while I'm watching is: I bet those guys smell weird....)
Anyway, we've already moved his chair just a little to the left once he was out of the room. Filled his sandwich with paper. Set a minor fire.... (Yeah, don't ask about that one.)
I think I'm Judd Nelson in this whole situation....
Sweet!

Dom
The Fair.
I. Heed the posters. It is coming.
II. Let all colors be seen. It's the fair, it's colorful.
III. Eat the heart attack on a stick. It tastes yummy.
.....
Wow, that actually sortakindamaybealmost worked! (Combining the village and the fair! What?!)

Ice cream, cookies, and zombies = pure dopeness!!!

Now you know what I did today.
All homework ignored.

Three Conversations I Had Today:
Unnamed Person: I think you're stupid.
Me: Thank you.
Unnamed Person: It wasn't a compliment.
Me: I know.
Unnamed Person: Then why'd you say 'thank you?'
Me: Why not?
Unnamed Person: *Confused* That doesn't make any sense.
Me: It do to me. Want a coke?
Unnamed Person: No.
Conversation Two:
Unnamed Person: Haven't seen you around in a while.
Me: You need a better pick-up line.
Unnamed Person: That one usually works.
Me: Well, I'm not the usual. What do you want?
Unnamed Person: *ignores me* What'll it be? Chocolate?
Me: Nope, Coffee.
Unnamed Person: *scoops it out and piles it in cone* Well, it'll keep you up. I don't recommend it.
Me: Did I ask what you recommended?
Unnamed Person: No, you didn't.
Me: No tips for you. Give me the ice cream.
Unnamed Person: Pay me for it.
Me: I already did. And I'm in a hurry.
Unnamed Person: *hands me the ice cream.* What're you doing Thursday night?
Me: Watching the Season Three premiere of Fringe. Why?
Unnamed Person: Oh, you can watch it on Friday.
Me: Because?
Unnamed Person: Wanna go see a movie with me?
Me: No. Can't cancel.
Unnamed Person: What about Friday night?
Me: No, I'm busy then, too.
Unnamed Person: Doing what?
Me: Not going out with you! Thanks for the ice cream. *Leaves*
Conversation Three:
Me: Mom, I got asked out today.
Mom: By whom?
Me: Kid that runs the ice cream shop.
Mom: Oh. What'd you say?
Me: No, o'course!
Mom: Good answer. Done your homework?
Me: Wrong twin, Mom.
Mom: Oh, that's right. DOM!
Me: *snickers*
Aaaand that's pretty much the kind of conversations I have every day. Stupid, in'nit?

Secret Agent Man
We're totally secret agents now. O.o
Watch this video and you'll be more in the mood for it, I think.
Limited information
Anyway, no more info on the portal trip. For now.
