shanmonster | I Want to Live to See Your Body Burn

I get to see GWAR tonight, and I'd be completely jazzed about it except for the fact that I feel nauseated. Gah! I hate this pukish feeling. I only hope this GWAR show isn't a repeat of the Ministry show, where I had ass flu. In any case, I have no intention on going into the pit today, because my foot has been freaking out on me for the past week again, and even walking makes it throb like a reanimated heart.

I'm going to make some breakfast and hope it settles my stomach. Maybe I'll have bananas and blackberries on cereal. That sounds pretty tasty.

Have some tasty links.

The Richat Structure: The Eye of the Earth: "The Richat Structure, Oudane, Mauritania, is not really a structure but a huge circular formation (50 km in diameter - 30 miles), that resembles an eye when looked upon from space. Originally thought to be a crater, this volcanic dome is most likely a product of erosion, an ancient geological artifact in the middle of featureless Maur Adrar desert, in Africa's Western Sahara."
