(no subject)

The weirdness of yesterday:
1. Wrote a parody poem of Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky featuring Naruto characters. Is incredibly stupid and lord knows if I'll share it. Needs to be worked with some, at least. >_> But I wasted worktime midday for it, which is especially bad of me considering the next point.

2. Had an asthma attack at work in the afternoon, while my inhaler was at home. :x It just hadn't really sunk in, I guess, that it's not like it used to be, where I'd only get short of breath during exercise or when I had bronchitis or some such resperatory illness. Even though my dr. and the allergist said it's a permanent, all-the-time, asthma, it just never occurred to me that I should have the albuterol around always, just in case. So got really wheezy and gaspy (still no idea what triggered it), and our department chair had Kelly drive me home to where I had my inhaler. If it'd been a little worse, I might've thought about the ER >_>; But the inhaler did help, though things still felt off all evening (and still feel a little not-quite-normal this morning). But I go into my physician this afternoon anyway to start those allergy shots, so I can mention what happened then and see if there's any more she thinks I should be doing. Other than having my inhaler with me at all times, which yes, I am doing now. *is slow, yes* I like my cargo-pants-with-pockets, guess I should use said pockets once in a while.

And Kelly drives like a madman when she wants to. I just figured that should be said.

No WoW last night. D: Though really, there wouldn't have been anyway--was dead tired and so needed the chance to sleep all evening and then all night. But it seemed an especially good idea to take it easy. So anyway.

Having our work holiday party during lunch today, which means decent food. And not getting terribly much done if I don't get cracking. Wasted time yesterday was especially not good considering stuff's been piling up as it is :x

Teh funny: http://uploads.ungrounded.net/content.php?id=207627&name=207627_emmyxmas.swf&title=Emmy%27s%20Christmas%20Gift&date=1103000400&quality=b&uj=0&w=480&h=360

And yes, another comic link, but is also teh funny for those of us who used to play the game 'Lemmings': http://www.frozenreality.co.uk/comic/bunny/index.php?id=104

Okay, the stupid

*coughs* Yes. Like I mentioned earlier, a parody poem based off Carroll's Jabberwocky. Though I did not try to work in nonsense words, but I did borrow structure, meter, patterns of rhyme, general feel, and so on. Even tried to mirror the style of punctuation, as much as I could. Anyway.

Oh, and yes, it's slashy, because this is me we're talking about here and we are thus not surprised. I mean, c'mon.

Uchiha...-y. >_>
(A Naruto parody of Jabberwocky; With sincerest apologies to Lewis Carroll)


'Twas Monday, and in Konoha
Tsunade bopped him on the head:
Naruto flailed and snarked, "Oi, baa-...!",
She growled and once more said

"Go find the Uchiha, you brat!
You tell that obsessed, brooding twit
I'm sick of his avenger act!
It's all a load of shit!"

He took his vulpine demon seal:
Long time the bastard boy he sought --
So perched in place on a carved stone face,
he stared at where they'd fought.

He scratched, then froze in disbelief,
The Uchiha, with eyes that spun,
Came skulking toward the Hidden Leaf,
And smirking like at fun!

One, two! One, two! Chi red and blue
As Chidori met Rasengan!
But both shots missed, and...what? A kiss?
There was a change of plans.

"So, brat, you find the Uchiha?"
Two young men blushed, but answered not;
Though one grumped "Blah~..." at her "Yee-ha!"
(She'd won the gambling pot.)

'Twas Monday, and in Konoha
The time for payback came to pass;
Naruto snogged his Uchiha,
Then happ'ly kicked his ass.

JABBERWOCKY
Lewis Carroll
(from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
