...lass of grapefruit juice.
I envy you. Not that you have a glass of grapefruit juice, because you most assuredly do not, especially not pink grapefruit juice. However - I most absodefinitely do have pink grapefruit juice. That's not the moral of the story though.
I woke up this morning to voices in the house. This isn't unusual. Actually, I told a lie, let me start again:
I woke up this morning to my phone alarm's rather soothing (for a phone) tones of Radiohead's "No Surprises". If anyone can tell me a better phone alarm tone to have I would like to hear about it. The phone was telling me (in its own special way, as it has neither vocal chords nor lips with which to speak human language) that Jade would be here in a matter of minutes. As I was lying in bed wondering if I could just hold court from beneath my doona like some terminally ill monarch I heard voices from the main room of the house. This isn't unusual. I usually awaken well after normal people have reached the talking phase of their morning, but one of the talkers was Dad, who should have been at work (making money to buy me food and electricity damn you). Ambling out of bed and towards the shower in my towel, I was confronted with a huge police guy talking to dad.
My sister was assaulted in our house at about 6am this morning, while I was sleeping less than 10m away. There are forensic guys all over the place wearing little plastic boot coverers and dusting for prints. Brie is apparently not harmed in any major physical way, but I haven't seen her yet as she's been at the hospital and the police station.
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do now. Jade visited briefly and then disappeared. Understandable really, there's enough police cars outside our house at the moment to make it look rather inhospitable.
/Edit: Oh, I just remembered. Yes the film is finished now (well, mostly) so I will be able to talk and interact with people once again. So sorry for being unresponsive the last couple of days. I think I put more hours into this project than I would have for all my other subjects this semester combined, including classes.
I'll post a DivX as soon as I have encoded it, so you can marvel at my mania.
/Update: I'm just back from giving a statement to the police. I still don't really know what happened with any detail, but Brie is ok . She's here and has a group of her friends looking after and keeping her company. Apparently something was reported on the 5:pm news, and there's a pretty big investigation going on. I don't know what else to say.
Bloody hell!?!?
I was going to talk my usual shit, but it seems somewhat inappropriate now. Not to mention totally less interesting.
<3 to the lovegays
Heh, thanks Dave, and yeah, that's pretty much what I've been thinking Pesh.
So did anyone watch the news? Apparently the neighbourhood has been crawling with fucking TV crews. Brie has gone somewhere else for the night. Shitty shitty situation.

(despite the fact I thought the above comment was perfectly appropriate, I still dont feel comfortable comment blogging here.. so.. its over kiddos. its been fun (im lying, and so are you, but its okay to lie about things being better than they were once they're over))
Don't feel uncomfortable around me dave.. You said things weren't going to get weird.
I just got back from the premiere of the film. It was ok. Jade was utterly stunning. I think I'm going to blog it, and I'll post the film. Why am I writing this here?
