Whales and American Horror Story

Yesterday I took my little brother's girlfriend to the museum to see the whale exhibit. Whales are her favorite and dolphins are mine so it was a lot of fun! We also hunted down all of the gnomes hidden down in the displays throughout the museum. We had so much fun and I just love that she is a part of our lives!

To add to yesterday's fun, Scott and I watched American Horror Story: Freak Show last night. After a bit of a slow start it began to pick up this episode. I thought this season would be scary but it hasn't been too scary yet. I think with *Spoiler! Don't read further if you want to be surprised with the show!* Dandy being the newest (and now only) clown killer it should get more interesting. He is way more demented than Twisty was! Thanks to last weeks episode of AHS I have been obsessed with Lana Del Rey! I am definitely looking forward to next week's episode!

I hope everyone has a fun Halloween tomorrow! Stay safe and be scary!

Seriously Jessica Lange is my hero!

The Re-Written Gatsby

George was devastated and fuming. Gatsby killed his Myrtle and he had a feeling that Gatsby was also the one sleeping with his wife. He was the one who gave her those pearls, the one who made her want more than George could give her. He had to kill Gatsby for killing his Myrtle. He drove to the enormous mansion in West Egg. He heard Gatsby talking to someone. He waited until Gatsby was alone and walked towards the back. Gatsby was just jumping into the pool when George walked up.

“You son of a bitch,” he whispered under his breath as he lifted the gun up to shot Gatsby as he rose out the opposite side of the pool.

“NO!” screamed a voice behind George. He turned around in surprise and a shot rang out. A silence filled the air after the cracking echo of the shot flitted away. George looked at his bloody hand as a tear fell from his eye. He dropped to his knees and dropped the gun he brought to end Gatsby.

“Daisy!” shouted Gatsby as he ran to his love, “You do love me,” he shook as he grabbed her close to him in a wet embrace.

“Oh Jay, I couldn't go back. Tom told me everything. He told me about all the girls. The one who calls every night Jay, she is the one I killed. He was so angry but he swore he was changed. He swore he would stay faithful. The only one who has stayed faithful is you. I had to leave, I had to go Jay! I love you,” Daisy was breathless as she kissed Gatsby.

“Mr. Gatsby, Nick Carraway is on the phone sir,” said Gatsby's butler to the reunited couple.

“I cannot thank you enough for saving Daisy,” responded Gatsby, “Tell Nick I will ring him shortly.

“Sir I was saving you.”

Gatsby and Daisy stood in solemn quiet for a moment before embracing again and walking inside. The butler called the police. Tom tried to take Pammy and force Daisy to leave with him. Wolfsheim used his connections to encourage Tom to give up Pammy and leave town. The next summer Daisy and Gatsby wed in his specially made garden just for Daisy, and this momentous occasion. Nick grew in the stocks and bonds business and married Jordan shortly after the Gatsby's wed. They moved into the city after a few successful years in golf and stocks. After Daisy and Gatsby had a few children they sold their palatial estate and moved to Paris to start anew from Wolfsheim. It was a love of a lifetime, a decade, a century. It was a love that only Jay Gatsby and Daisy could have.

I Love Lana

He used to call me DN that stood for deadly nightshade 'cause I was filled with poison but blessed with beauty and rage. This is what makes us girls, we all look for heaven and we put our love first somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse. In the land of Gods and Monsters I was an Angel living in the garden of evil. Screwed up, scared, doing anything that I needed shining like a fiery beacon. Hello? Hello? C-can you hear me? I can be your china doll if you want to see me fall. Boy, you're so dope, your love is deadly. Tell me life is beautiful, they all think I have it all. I'm nothing without you. All my dreams and all the lights mean nothing without you. I'm feelin' electric tonight, cruising down the coast goin' 'bout 99. Got my bad baby by my heavenly side, I know if I go, I'll die happy tonight. They say I'm too young to love you. They say I'm too dumb to see. They judge me like a picture book, by the colors, like they forgot to read. Not even they can stop me now boy, I’ll be flying overhead. Their heavy words can’t bring me down boy I've been raised from the dead. No one even knows how hard life was. I don't even think about it now because I've finally found you. Oh, sing it to me, All the pretty stars shine for you, my love. Am I that girl that you dream of? All those little times you said that I'm your girl. You make me feel like your whole world. I'm not afraid to say that I'd die without him. Who else is gonna put up with me this way? I need you, I breathe you, I never leave you, they would rue the day I was alone without you. You're lying with your gold chain on, cigar hanging from your lips, I said "Hon' you never looked so beautiful as you do now, my man." Being a mistress on the side, it might not appeal to fools like you. We been around on the side, wanna be somethin' you would do.
