2.) How did you get the idea for your myspace name? It... was on my birth certificate. People are always calling me "Holly." The first word of my signature is generally "Holly." So, you know... it's not just a clever rememberance of Christmas-time plants or anything.

63.) Does it annoy you when someone says they'll call but never do? Sometimes. But that person is usally me.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (Why Matt Owes Me a Pizza)
Oh, great. Matt has decided to "tag" me with this chain letter in disguise. Since it is technically a survey, and since I have obsessive-compulsive disorder and therefore cannot turn down a challenge of the internet sort (or the world will explode... you understand), I must fill this out. Matt- you owe me a pizza.
Now, here's the obligotory rules and crap:
"I've been tagged!
So the rules are, once you've been tagged, you have to write a blog with "6 weird things/habits about yourself". In the end you need to choose the 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their comments and tell them to read yours."
1. I can, and do, crack all of the joints on my body, as well as some parts that don't qualify as joints. *Shrugs and crackles*
2. I am one of the few vegetarians you will ever meet who despises most vegetables. I really only like the ones that count as carbs. *Chomps on a raw potato*
3. I'm deathly horrified of the dark. Who knows, it might stab me in my sleep someday! But, of course, it won't because I sleep with a light on! Hmm... and I wonder why I'm single.
4. I've never consumed a drop of alcohol, smoked anything, or done any sort of drugs, and never will. I figure I'm insane enough as it is.
5. Because of my aforementioned obsessive-compulsive disorder, the following words are always running through my head: Love, safety, freedom, fun, courage, inspiration, happiness, friendship, faith, and success. Creepy, eh? And quite annoying too, I assure you.
6. I'm sure that at least 65% my time is spent reading Harry/Hermione smut. What a productive waste of time!
Unwillingly, I suppose I will tag Z-bear, Tracey, Crystal, Lou, Lindsay, and... JPM!

The Cheat is Not Dead. Neither is Holly
Wow. I used to have an online diary! Look! Amazing. Okay, look. I'm really sorry, but I've been distracted. Yes, for the past year. I'm sorry I haven't gotten around to writing, but I'm going to make up for it right now... with a survey! ...Of sorts. Okay, who's ready for the popular internet game... Guess the Song Title! You all know the rules! I listen to random songs on my iPod and type some'a the lyrics in here and you all get to waste time guessing which song the lyrics came from! And I'll even throw in a bonus and give you pictures of who the lyrics are by! Huzzah! Heeeeeeeeeeeere we go!
1. I would die for you... I would die for you. I've been dying just to feel you by my side. To know that you're mine. I will cry for you, I will cry for you. I will wash away your pain with all my tears and drown your fear.
2. From the first breath of her life, she flew straight into my arms. I used to catch her from the swings when she was 5. Now she dances on the wind in a world as hard as stone. She's so anxious to begin and read to fly.
3. We were drawn from the wheels. We were brave like soldiers, falling down under the pale moonlight. You were holding me like someone broken and I couldn't tell you but I'm telling you now: just let me hold you while you're falling apart.
4. What's the time? Well, it's gotta be close to midnight. My body's talking to me. It says time for danger. It says I wanna commit a crime. Wanna be the cause of a fight. Wanna put on a tight skirt and flirt with a stranger.
5. I can't be losing sleep over this, no I can't. And now I cannot stop pacing. Give me a few hours, I'll have this all sorted out. If my mind would just stop racing... 'Cause I cannot stand still. I can't be there so sturdy. This cannot be happening.
6. It's like you're a drug. It's like you're a demon I can't face down, it's like I'm stuck... It's like I'm running from you all the time. And I know I let you have all the power. It's like the only company I seek is misery all around. It's like you're a leech... sucking the life from me.
7. I worry I weigh 3 times my body. I worry I throw my fear around. But this morning, there's a calm I can't explain. The rock candy's melted, only diamonds now remain. By the time I recognize this moment, this moment will be gone.
8. Hold me now... stop the morning light from breaking, something's coming over me. I don't know what it is I'm saving. The clock ticks by and it just might change everything. If I don't give you all that's waiting, who knows what tomorrow will bring?
9. Well... the Poopsmith, he could talk. And Mazipan would rock. And the stick would be this big ol' tree who tried to eat everyone except the Cheat and me. And the King of Town would be underground in a box filled up with peas.
10. We went to the coffee/tea shop on our first date... and it started off great. We made with the talkingn and it was just fine but it soon turned into that awkward silence and I didn't know what to do next. So we sat there with all the couple kissing. And soon, things began deteriorating. And you began turning into the human hosepipe.
11. I had it tough when I was just a little kid; it didn't matter what I thought, it didn't matter what I did. I felt the doubt for what I lacked right from the start. It did a number on my head, but it could never touch my heart. 'Cause I had just enough imagination, just enough to keep the faith.
12. I linger in the doorway of alarm clocks screaming, monsters calling my name. Let me stay where the wind will whisper to me. Where the raindrops, as they're falling, tell a story. In my field of paper flowers and candy clouds of lullaby, I lie inside myself for hours, then watch my purple sky fly over me.
13. Creeping up on you is the wrong thing to do. I found your address, got you phone number too. Visit all the stores where you buy all your clothes. Been to secret places you think nobody knows. If I have to live without you, nobody could. I need to be around you, watching you.
14. It's so quiet, walking along the edge. It won't be long now till I forget who I am. I am so afraid to move forward. All the mistakes I've made surround me. So I run away. I cannot face what I'm throwing away. It's just as well. You could always tell when I was hollow.
15. They were the sweetest wonds I've ever heard, my heart could barely take it in, like water offered to the lips of a tired and thirsty man. 'Cause it's a tangled web I've woven and I don't know all the reasons, but it amazes me to wake up to your mercy every morning.
16. Oh, I couldn't live a single day without you. Actually, on second though, well, I suppose I could. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, honey, you're the greatest. Well, at any rate, I guess you're pretty good. Now it seems to me, I'm relatively lucky. I know I probably couldn't ask for too much more. I honestly can say you're an above-average lady. You're almost just what I've been looking for.
17. Well, he looks at me with those innocent eyes and says, "It looks like you're wearing some kind of disguise because your hair sticks up, your shoes are untied, and I hope that you got that shirt at half-price." And every word I say falls flat on the floor. I try to tell a joke, he's heard it before.
18. Move your body like a hairy troll learning how to rock and roll. Spin around like a crazy elf dancing by himself. Get down like a unicorn. No stopping till the break of dawn. Put your hands up in the air... like an ogre who just don't care.
19. We like to buy, we like to spend, to keep up with the latest trends, but we don't get no satisfaction living like a slave to fashion. No more thinking for yourself... just get it off a shelf. Oh, why be perfect? No, it's not worth it. Don't be so obsessed. Come on, give it a rest. This is not some contest. Just do your best. 'Cause nobody's perfect.
20. I don't want to stand on a stage with a sword. I went to a pantomime once. I was bored. I'm not a poetical sort of a person like you. When I need a poem, the street and the gutters will do. There's Tommy Flannigan who lights the gas lamps. 190 lamps in Phoenix Pack alone. He's done it drunk for over 57 years... in Dublin.
Here's hoping I'll write a real entry before 2007! Woo!
<3, Holly

You Can Only Talk About Potatoes So Long
Jerry was in a play called A Man of No Importance recently. I'll talk about that next entry. I've actually already written most of that entry. I just don't feel like finishing it right now, and I've got to get to work. Perhaps I'll write about that later, too. But the point I'm trying to make here is, Jerry leant me his Man of No Importance soundtrack, and this chick who plays that girl in the blue coat sings, "You can only talk about potatoes so long." Well, I've got news for her.
Potatoes are delicious. They're full in carbie-goodness. Why, I love potatoes so much, I could eat them every day of the year. If I were a potato farmer, let me tell you, I would be a happy Holly. Just last night, I ate mashed potatoes with a side of fries, which were filled with... YOU GUESSED IT! ...potatoes. Earlier that day, I had some hash browns. I never understood what was up with that punishment where they make people peel potatoes. I mean, dude--you could turn those babies into sweet potato cassarole! Man, my mouth is watering just thinking about potatoes.
Alright, I guess I should get to work now, but you kids remember to eat your frickin' potatoes. They're delectable. Now just sit back and enjoy these lyrics by "Weird Al" Yankovic.
"Addicted to Spuds"
Potato skins, potato cakes
Hash browns and instant flakes
Baked or boiled or French fried
There's no kind you haven't tried
You planned a trip to Idaho
Just to watch potatoes grow
I understand how you must feel
I can't deny they've got a peel
Wo, you like 'em whether they're plain or they're stuffed, oh yeah
Better face the facts, it seems you can't get enough
You know, you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to spuds
Your greasy hands, your salty lips
Looks like you found the chips
Your belly aches, your teeth grind
Some tater tots would blow your mind
And you don't mind if they're not cooked
You need your fix, I guess you're hooked
And late at night you always dream
Of bacon bits and sour cream
Wo, you like 'em even if they're lumpy or tough, oh yeah
It's pretty obvious to me you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to spuds
Might as well face it, you're addicted to spuds
Might as well face it, you're addicted to spuds
Might as well face it, you're addicted to spuds
Might as well face it, you're addicted to spuds
Might as well face it, you're addicted to spuds
I'm giving up, it's just no use
Another case of spud abuse
What can I say, what can I do
Potato bug has got me, too
Woah, I used to hate 'em, now they're all that I eat, oh yeah
I've often seen 'em whipped, but they just can't be beat
Now I'm gonna have to face it, I'm addicted to spuds
See, blue-coated girl? Weird Al wrote a whole song about potatoes! I guess I showed that fictional character!
