Today

I went with Lauren to her friend's child's birthday party. It was decked out in Mickey Mouse. From Mickey-shaped sandwiches to the parents coordinating in red and yellow. The mom even had yellow fingernails, haha. It was really cool but also made me anxious to start a family. And contrary to popular belief, I do want a family. :)

It's still two human beings trying to get along, so it's going to be complicated. And love is always complicated. But humans must try to love each other, darling. We must get our hearts broken sometimes. This is a good sign, having a broken heart. It means we have tried for something.

Imagine a world without free knowledge

Today, Wikipedia, Google and others are protesting against government legislation that will prohibit people from searching about piracy.  Of course, what most people fail to realize is that this is just another part of Big Brother seizing your "freedoms."  I think it's cool that these huge search engines have stood up in protest.  It's definitely one of the best ways for people to take notice.

Today begins the year countdown until we know if the Mayan prophecy that the world will end on December 21, 2012 is true.

And it's National Hamburger Day.

Mind Your Own Business

I know I've already semi-covered this in a previous post but I can't get over it.  Maybe I'm just simple-minded to not be able to grasp such things..things that have been around since before I was born.  Well, since forever.  But then again, time doesn't mean it's right..right?  I believe gay rights issues are the "right now" issues of the time.  The current movement.  I hope one day soon everyone will be content with the fact that some people are gay and some people aren't.  A simple, private fact is all it comes down to and I can't wait for the day that everyone minds their own business.  Business that probably needs tending to since they've been so busy perusing through others.  If we'd just mind our own business about many of the "big" issues in the world, we'd be able to focus on the ones that really matter that receive not even half the air-time.

It's been so long.  It's weird to lose your touch.  I mean, to lose whatever.  I don't even know how to eloquently word that.  I used to be able to write every day.  Whatever came to mind...I craved it.  Then, I just lost it.  Now, it's a serious struggle to feel that I'm saying something worth revisiting.  See, I've lost it already.  My thoughts are encompassed in bubbles that pop just before I reach them.
