It's dark and her name is Crystal, so... Dark Crystal, get it?

I play Ned Kelly sometimes at the Old Melbourne Gaol. As part of a show they put on for the tourists on Saturdays. Much of it is played for laughs, despite his story being a pretty dark one.
Unlikely as it seems this is not my first job in a gaol. I used to work at Fremantle Prison as a "screamer". This job consisted of throwing a life-sized dummy over the 3rd floor railing and down on to the suicide-netting over the heads of the tour group, while letting out your best blood-curdling scream. The punters would scream, and then laugh at themselves. There were marks drawn on the walls of the cell I waited in, some of them left by prisoners counting out the days (the prison didn't close until 1991), others made by 'screamers' counting off to tours. (We got paid per tour). Amazing how a place of so much misery, violence, and despair can be re-invented as a place to bring the kids for a few laughs. It always makes me think of the quote, "Comedy is tragedy plus time." There were no working lights in the cells either, so it was pretty dark in that sense too.

When I carpool with Mike from work, I typically pass the time by walking to the Y so he can wrap up loose ends before he leaves. Today, as I was about to walk out the door, dark clouds approached and began to downpour. I was not prepared with any type of rain protection, so I had to settle on waiting for my ride.

Tonight will be a dark night in our house..

Elle won a fish at the street fair. She actually lost but they gave her the fish anyway. So she named him Barney and was super excited. We stopped and got him food on the way home but it was too late. RIP Barney the fish.

My school changed it's hours so I have to go in way earlier than I used to. I have to leave in the dark and when I get there 40 minutes or so later its still dark. Because its dark we pretend we can't see signs like this in the parking lot.

i decided to go in the 'stemming from evil characteristics or forces' direction of dark...
this photo was inspired by the darkest thing i know... the musical, lyrical and visual stylings of fever ray, an amazing artist with a flair for the creepy. in her video for 'if i had a heart' she wears makeup like this and, well, i thought it was super scary cool...

"this will never end
cause i want more
more, give me more, give me more..."

dark, right?
