Vampire Conduct

In one week, almost to the minute, I begin my third shift adventure. I'm hesitant, naturally, but hopeful that it will bring better muscle tone and look great on my job resume. Plus I'm curious to know what it will be like to be a night owl. A night walker. A creature of the night. I'm waiting for the day when I end my shift and walk outside to see the sun rising. That will be a sight to see, a sensation to experience. I also feel like this will be a friend filtering several months. I've informed practically everyone of what is going to take place, and I'm interested to see which of my friends stick around, which ones leave me to the night, and which ones remember me when May rolls around. Plus I have to find out which ones endure my inevitable cranky moods, I'm sure I'll be quick to bite and draw blood. The good ones will endure, and the superficial ones will drop like corpses. It'll be like thinning the herd. Can you tell I'm very carnal today? I watched Big Cat Diary, a show about my favorite animals on Animal Planet, which is always a pleasure. And then I YouTubed some Buffy clips, just for shits and giggles. So I'm very bite marks and jugular veins today. I meant to see that Ethan Hawke movie about vampires that came out earlier this month, but never got around to it. Can't believe that it's already February, that seems so fast. I despise February, fake holidays and harsh weather. I still think it's lame that no one credits Buffy for truly bringing about the vampire craze that our culture is currently in. She started it. She did it the best. All these Twilights and Moonlights and Spotlights owe it all to her. She made vampires en vogue. And Spike made them sexy. I always took after Buffy when it came to making my priorities, putting friends and family before homework and social responsibilities. Fighting the good fight and leaving math tests to everyone else. Apparently I'm rubbing off on the boys. One of my housemates literally just sprinted out of the house and sped off down the street like a seventies action movie. Apparently someone needs his help. Chances are he's blowing off homework, and he might not even make it to all his classes tomorrow. But friends, and family, come first. We help each other because it's what we do. Another reason why I'm so bent on getting bigger muscles and being healthier. Since I wasn't technically born with or imbued with "Slayer strength", I kinda have to make my own. Excuse me while I do some push ups....
