V-D #3: thoughtful vs expected

As promised, this is the 3rd & final part of my Valentine's day trilogy. It's a little after the fact, which is mostly due to not having access to pictures/programs from my then broken, now fixed laptop . . . .and also equally due to my inability to finish a project without the pressure of a deadline.

I decided to make anti-valentine's a couple weeks before V-day. Dark and dreary, bloody and spiteful. I made a bunch, and then forgot about em a little bit, and never sent them out. Yet another example of my enhanced procrastination . . . unless there's another name for this. I do this all the time with b-day, christmas, thank you, etc. cards: fill them out put them in an addressed envelope and they just sit, never reaching their intended destination.

Long story short, I was inspired/influenced by the presence of new friend to make this random present based on a random silly message they left me -After getting it I instantly thought, damn this is A. funny, B. great timing, C. something i could totally have great a comeback for, D. This person would totally appreciate the effort (well damn, if it were me i'd be psyched to get it!) So here i am sitting on this virtually completed project, 2 or so months after the fact, and i'm still as excited as i was with the original idea . . . .and I keep thinking WOW, it's amazing what you can create with some old mags, tape, glue, access to several thousand cds & random choice words.

This is it, the Pants Party collection. A 2-disc compilation of lust-driven songs about getting it on or wanting to, or just a little inspiration to get in the mood. And yes, this is packaged, ready, and waiting to be mailed.*

All the construction was actually done the day before V-day, and I thought, oh crap, this would be a hilarious V-day present! And then thankfully, the motivation was killed by the unfortunate events of getting sick with the flu, lack of positive reinforcement, and the realization of how much cooler my present would be on any random day in the near future. Ultimately, I would be succumbing to the evils of this fake love holiday if my gift were received for February 14th. Then I would have to deal with the uncomfortable “oh crap, she loves me, I can’t deal” nonsense, which isn’t really my style of bombardment, wooing, or random gift bearing. Honestly, although it may appear blatantly otherwise, I swear i didn't have any romantic intention with this . . .i just thought it was a great random idea . . . that just so happens to be open for (mis)interpretation. Everyone that already knows about this project doesn't believe me, i suppose i wouldn't believe me either. Whatever, it's dope, i'm dope, and y'all can suck it.
