A Visit
posted August 12, 2009 - 8:27pm
Can you believe it? Oh, I forgot to tell you - I was visited by an angel. A weird angel but an angel none-the-less. So, can you believe it? Well, let me explain exactly what happened.
I was sitting around doing a whole lot of nothing when I hear this voice.
"Hey"
I looked around real quick, freaking the hell out because I live alone, wondering if someone had broken into the house. I mean I probably leapt about 5 feet above the couch when I heard it. After a little searching around the house I found a whole lot of nothing. So, I sit back down, still a little freaked, heart racing, to settle back into my nothingness when it happened again.
"Hey, spaz"
I jumped again and again I find zippy. Now I'm starting to wonder if someone is playing a trick on me.
"No, I'm not playing a trick on you."
With my heart feeling like it was about to burst it was beating so hard, I decided to answer my disembodied voice.
"Well, wh-where are you-u then?" I stammered.
"Right here, I've been watching you for awhile now."
"How long is awhile?"
"A few weeks."
"Did you see me when I did...well...you know?" I asked suddenly embarassed and no longer frightened.
"Of course."
"Sorry about that."
"No problem. Don't worry about it - I've seen it all before, sadly many times."
"So...why are you here?"
"Well, the honest truth is that I need you, or at least someone, and I picked you."
"Why me?"
"I don't know. You seemed kinda pathetic and I felt kinda sorry for you."
"Uh huh. So, what do you need me to do."
"This may sound a little odd but I need you to kill someone."
"Huh?"
"Yeah, I know its out there, but trust me its kinda important."
"I'm not going to kill anyone."
"Oh, sure you will."
"Why do you think so?"
"I don't know, we just think you have it in you."
"Who the hell are you anyway?"
"Me? I'm, uh, Michael. Yeah, that's it the Archangel Michael - that's me."
"The Archangel Michael, huh?"
"Yeah, that's what I said - the Archangel Michael."
"Ok, Archangel Michael, why do you want me to kill someone?"
"Well, ummmm, we think she may be the anti-christ."
"You want me to kill a woman?!"
"Yeah."
"So, who is it and why?"
"Abigail Durst because like I said before we think she is the anti-christ."
"Really?"
"Yeah, really."
"The mom next door?"
"Yep, that's her."
"She's the anti-christ?"
"We think so."
"What makes you think so?"
"Because she's kinda mean and kinda enjoys being mean."
"That's it?"
"That's it."
"So, kill her because she's mean."
"And she may be the anti-christ."
"Oh yeah, almost forgot. So when do you want me to do this?"
"Maybe now, she's home by herself."
"Nah, not tonight - I have stuff to do tonight. How about tomorrow?"
"Sure you can't do it tonight?"
"Yeah, pretty sure."
"Because it didn't look like you were doing much."
"Trust me."
"Alright, alright, tomorrow is fine."
"Ok"
So, can you believe that an angel visited me?

It was because of you I did not post the really
great xxx but clean stuff I wrote. Guaranteed to be stimulating. And where be ericka?
Yes Darrell -- Very good. I feel as dense as Misty Jo not recognizing the lawyer of the foundation. . . .
Great.
Oh, I remember
the "good 'ole days"
You may remember me as erikadarrell. Yeah, I was one of those idiots that got myself kicked off the Xomba planet - I didn't really write PG-13 stuff.
The post still looked good to me - I think you may be running a bad web browser.
One of my fondest memories of those days was when Bryan A got mad at me for saying one of his uninspired posts was not funny (something on office politics). So he ran to my Senior Year serial (it was called something different at the time and I was only a few installments into it) and proceeded to rant about it saying it was like a Lifetime show. Little did he know that that was exactly what I wanted. I was leading the reader down a path only to have it violently changed in a whole other direction. Kinda made me proud and made me laugh.
Ah, memories....

Most of you weren't here for the "good old" begin days on Xomba.
But Idle was, and Publius and people you have not read about -- some of them exceptional writers and thinkers, and several I miss very much, including such as Antonia Dwells, Cara Gunderson, and so many other exceptional storytellers that from then to now is markedly different.
Nick's editor for input was troublesome, and did not know how to handle white space, needed for many things, and paragraphs were run together and here is a link to one that starts with Idle's response to publius that involved . . . well, read it when you have time.

It is not "easy" reading. It probably is one of the last instances of democratic discussions amongst a small cadre of members with anyone and anything more or less welcome.
The difficulty is, of course, the formatting of the content. It is all jammed together if you go to the link above.and any of your early stuff archived might look like this.
I have been thinking of resuurecting "CSI Xomba, and the dangerous Pyro virus. Hitch hikers were welcome when we all had the freedom we seem to have lost now.
Darrell might not feel the mean, mean as meanly.
How many of these voices are coherent ?
Keep going, but watch out for the hitchikers you give a lift to.
Weird things
bounce around the 'ole head :)

let's see
Joshua 5:13-15 Once when Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing before him with a drawn sword in his hand. Joshua went to him and said to him, ‘Are you one of us, or one of our adversaries?’ He replied, ‘Neither; but as commander of the army of the Lord I have now come.’ And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and worshipped, and he said to him, ‘What do you command your servant, my lord?’ The commander of the army of the Lord said to Joshua, ‘Remove the sandals from your feet, for the place where you stand is holy.’ And Joshua did so.
In the War of the Sons of Light Against the Sons of Darkness, Michael is described as the prince of light, leading forces of God against the darkness of evil, who is led by Belial.
Enoch 10:15 Yahweh says to Michael; "Go and announce his crime to Samyaza, and to the others who are with him, who have been associated with women, that they might be polluted with all their impurity. And when all their sons shall be slain, when they shall see the perdition of their beloved, bind them for seventy generations underneath the earth, even to the day of Judgement, and of consummation, until the judgement, the effect of which will last forever and be completed."
In Catholic teachings, Saint Michael will also triumph at the end times when the Antichrist will be defeated by him.
Got all that from wiki when I was doing research.
So, yes I did pick Michael on purpose. He is the warrior as compared to Raphael and Gabriel (the only other two that I know) who are kinda wussified. *ducking the lightning bolts*
Good question!

building a monster
We could build a page on one persons site, then that person cuts and pastes from the comments to the story periodically and build our monsters that way..... just a thought.
That would be fun!
Yep, that was me. Like Scott said, you end up with something unexpected. And as expected, inspiration for writing comes from other writers. Scott, your parallel dialogue was great and complemented nicely Darrell's voices in his head, ha ha.
~Peace, Mia
