Am watching Vampirella.

What a cheesy movie... it's cheesier than macaroni. XD And the props and sets look so low-budget! I think Killer Klowns from Outer Space had a higher budget.

But hey--Roger's in it, and I'm such a shameless fangirl that I'd watch him even if he was sitting around doing nothing.

He rather resembles Dee Snider in his Jaimie Blood costume. O_______o

Dee Snider with Ziggy Stardust's haircut and Roger's gorgeous grin. XP

And that, friends, is all kinds of hot.

Yeah, I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Vampires kick ass. I love vampires; I'll watch just about anything involving them, read a lot of comic books about them, and even own a very large encyclopedia of vampire lore that I read cover-to-cover some weekends.

I write a lot of vampire stories, but Carpe Noctem is the only one I ever share with anybody else. Most of them share the same world and just happen to have different circumstances, different friends, but the same connection--their vampirism.

I'm pondering whether I should give them all their own series and just make Carpe Noctem un-supernatural; it's been awhile since I thought of anything really supernatural for Carpe Noctem (which was originally a story about an angsty vampire and his runaway friend). It's become largely un-supernatural; the only event that's still in from the original is... well, I won't spoil that for you.

I enjoy writing about those other vampires, though.

A couple of them are superheroes, fighting crime for different reasons; some are hippies hanging out on a vampire-hippie commune and draining the juice out of vegetables and fruits; some are just aimless friends wandering the world (like Seth and Lucy originally did); some actually settle down for some period of time. They often interact with one another, but I like peering into their individual lives as well.

My particular favorite non-CN vampires are Mary, Frank, and John. Mary is a descendant of Mary Magdalene and is thus appointed the guardian of the holy treasures; Frank and John are her Saint Knights (supposed to protect her from demons and vampires). Except Frank and John ARE vampires. They're trying to repent and become angels. But it's really not going so well, because they keep giving in to human vice. XD It's quite silly.

("Saint Frank!?"

"It's better than Saint Doobie...")

They're fun to write about. XP

My best-real-life-friend Taylor (I actually had them at one time, though I live about half an hour away from them now, and that's driving at full speed) has really pointy front teeth and he's really pale. I wonder if he's really a vampire!?
