I need to start off by saying: My roots are out of control.

Now that that's out of the way, I can get on to bigger and better topics.

My friend Mike from work is like...out of his mind, and I love it. He's the general manager of the store, but he's so awesome. He's only like...26 or something. Anyways, yesterday the store was completely empty, so he put on a Bob Marley CD and played it over the overhead speakers. Then he made the mistake of asking me to dance with him in the middle of aisle 2 to
"No Woman No Cry", since I was stocking potato chips. Everyone who knows me knows I can not dance...but that doesn't mean I don't try! I felt so horrible, I kept stepping on the poor boy's toes! He was nice enough to just laugh about it and serenade me.

~~My Dad really needs to stop telling people I was named after a very famous Rastafarian singer.~~

So that was fun. Then we started to make choreography to "I shot the Sheriff" which was basically me 'shooting' Mike who was trying to shoot me (I swear it was in self defense!), and then me being like "OH NO!" over Rob, the 'deputy' who I totally didn't shoot. Because...I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy!

Yeah, we're absolutely out of our minds, and we get paid for it. How awesome is that? Unfortunately it isn't like that all the time, though. Sigh. Whatever, it was a lot of fun, and my stomach hurt from laughing so hard.

Uh.

I'm pretty sure that these vision things are becoming more common, and a lot longer than they usually are. I swear sometimes it's like I'm watching an entire film.

Okay, exaggeration, but still. And it's never anything really important. It usually happens when I'm really bored and my mind drifts. Like, I was thinking about how I want a dog, and I started watching this lady walk her golden retriever for like 5 minutes. She was about 20 blocks away or something, too. I recognized the street names.

I don't know why, but I feel like I need to share any changes in this...thing I have with you guys. So, that's about it? I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

Marlie, I need your help. The day I quit my job, we are going to have a bonfire and ritual burning of Dean Martin memorabilia. I have heard "That's Amore" multiple times a night for the past two years, and it makes me want to punch babies.

I think it's a good thing. I mean, I started out catching totally random memories in the form of like, snapshots, where now I could sit there and watch somebody's memory of an entire day, in theory. I think it's only a matter of time before you'll be able to like, choose what you see? Like say, concentrating on a specific place or a person and seeing what's happening there.

	That all depends on how much you're willing to pay, good sir. (Reply to this) (Parent)

Dude, I know what you mean... are we almost ready to go back to out natural colours? Or we could go like neon pink and blue! OMG!

Impromptu breakdance contest in the produce section coming up, I don't know when and I don't know why- but one day I'm coming into my lovely local grocery store with some cardboard boxes, some duct tape and my ghettoblaster.

I think it's probably a good thing that you were the only child of Eddie Loke and Nessa Lordes because like... I can only imagine what your brothers and sisters would be named. I can see it now... Ziggy Stardust Loke or Axl Rose Loke. O_O
~~Oh that's a scary thought~~

I don't see why it would be a bad thing and I mean who knows what you could be capable of if you could hone your skills. Pretty much what Gabe said is what I'd reiterate. Maybe we could like work on it or something? I dunno. Man, screw you guys that at least have some semblance on control over your powers! >:[

...you're the second person who has mentioned pink hair to me! IT IS ON. Or, I'd like to think it's on. It all depends on whether or not I have the nerve to actually go through with it. GULP.

Oh man, oh man....the excitement of the ghettoblaster may be too much for me to handle!

"Oh hey you guys, have you met my little sister, Slash? Or, maybe you'd like to meet this little guy over here! He's my little bro, The Artist Formerly known as Prince!"

I need as much help as I can get, man.

And...your time will come! D:
