200,000 in counterfeit 50 dolla billz.



readers. hey.

you know what i noticed? there are two kinds of people in this world. there's the kind that are ALWAYS sick. like.. at least once a month you see them and they have huge bags under their eyes, that mopey walk, that apathetic outlook on the universe.. you know who i'm talking about. they're your friends.. but you want to say away from them. they may be sick all the time, but it never seems to last for long. it's like their immune systems are sleeping, then they get sick.. get thrown into overdrive.. and then by the end of the sickness, they're tired and go to sleep until the body gets sick again. it's a terrible cycle.

then, on the other side of the fence, are the people who are NEVER sick. they can go months, even years without showing a single symptom for anything. they have some magic gene that will keep them from all aliments. but when these people get sick.. they take it hard. they're out of comission for weeks, and even when they do get 'better'.. a part of them was lost in battle.


and with this.. i realized something. there is no intermediate anymore. it's either 'all or nothing', 'this or that', 'me or him'.. you get the drift. the world has taken out all the wiggle room from all decisions. there's no room to just.. learn and grow.

politics. red or blue. sure.. there is the option of green.. and there is supposed to be some sort of 'yellow' or moderate party.. but not really. when it comes down to the line.. you are red or you are blue. what if i'm a gun slingin', home bred, tobacco spittin' gal who just happens to be pro-choice? what if i'm a tree hugging, peace loving vegan who thinks darwin was a hack and is a big believer in intelligent design? who do i vote for then? there is no in-between

throwing up. there are no people who throw up 'every once in a while'. no. you either throw up all the time, or never.

diets. there are those people who are always on one form of a diet or another. atkins, nutrasysem, you name it.. they've done it. and then there are people who have never been on a diet.. and never will be on one. you're never 'sometimes' on a diet.

open or closed. black or white. in or out. wet or dry. cat or dog. star wars or startrek. you name it.. i've thought about it today.

there is no intermediate. there is no in-between. so let's stop pretending there is such a thing. i know.. it's a terrible loss. but let's get over it and go to free pancake day together tomorrow.


bye! sorry this was boring.

i'm about to lose control and i think i like it


reader(s)!! you made it!!

happy friday. i always loved fridays. i mean.. every day is awesome, and we should treat every day of the week equally.. that's a big 'should'. you can't possibly love all of the days of the week the same. and i don't. whoops.

and it's not for the same reasons that everyone else likes fridays. or most people. [i don't know why everyone likes fridays. i'm not god.] i don't see fridays as just a reason to go out and party , or the end of classes for the week. no. i see fridays as a little triumph. a 'win' for you in a world of 'loss'. think about it. every friday is another week you didn't lose to the cruel, cruel game of life. every day, people die. people are hit by busses or choke on their pudding pops. their wives drug them, or they use the sex swing the wrong way. and you didn't. you made it through the week without something [too] horrible happening to you. think about it. you can go out and say 'SUCK ON THAT, WORLD!' and not even feel bad. because you won this time. 

that's not to say you will win every week. come on people, only some of us can live forever. but i'm not here to preach fear. i say, continue to live, love, and do what you do. there's no way to beat the system. but this week you won. congratulations. my hope is, that i continue to do so well in the game, and one week.. even beat you.

i think that's all i've got for today. lucky for you, i kept this entry extremely positive. i'm nice that way. so until next time, enjoy yourselves.


PEACE OUT!

i've got a fever.. and the only prescription is more cow bell


well hello there bloggers

blogging is something  i've always wanted to do. seriously.. ever since i knew what blogging was, i've wanted one. i've had livejournals [several] but i feel like that's just a lame attempt. i wanted a real blog. and now i have one. look how cool i am. 

hmm.. i guess this is harder than it looks. what to write about? i can't write about too much.. because that'll just confuse my reader(s).. but if i don't write enough.. no one will come back. hmm. what to do, what to do. it's easier once there's an established blog. there are no awkward salutations, you can just jump into your topics. aahh screw it. i'm doing the same thing. it's my freakin blog

topic of the day: stupid people.
i can't stand them. point blank.

i mean.. i know that i'm not the sharpest tool in the shed [example? i just spelled shed 'shead'.], but some people just DO. NOT. GET. IT. 

i've found facebook is great breeding grounds for stupid people. it's a great place to 'connect' or 'poke' or what have you.. but it also gives people a lot of room to be stupid. maybe it's the fact that they don't hear what they're saying when they type it or that the person they can't see the person they are typing to so it doesn't matter.. but i see a lot of dumb things on my mini feed. people comment on ended relationships saying 'oh no! what happened?!' like they really want to talk about through comments on their little pink broken heart? no. 

or how about when someone stalks your friends on facebook.. and then goes ahead and tries to forge relationships with said friend. yes, i've made friends with friends friends.. and various famous people.. but i know how to deal with people. there are some folks out there who have NO common sense. like, i've seen wall posts up the wazoo that just make me cringe. people [trying to] talk up storms with someone they don't.. talking about nothing.. and the poor friend of a friend is so obviously uncomfortable but can't ignore them and be rude! 'never! this is a friend of my friend!'

and that's just facebook! this is not to mention all the people out in the real world! i hear some of the dumbest questions fly out of people's mouthes. i see some of the dumbest things go down. it's like there are people who are born without a filter to clean out all the stupid ideas. there are people like me who only let a few bad ideas out. and then there are the other people. woah. just thinking about it makes me angry. like.. grow a little sense! 


alright. i don't know if there is anymore i can add to this angry little rant. i'll let you know now [because this is the first entry] that the best part of all of this is the links. click on them. enjoy them, in and out of context.

oh! i bet you were wondering about the title of this entry? what do you think it had to do with this entry? .............. take your time.............. ready for the answer? well if you thought 'it had nothing to do with anything.' you're wrong. it ties all of this together with a nice little bow. 



THANKS FOR READING! i'll be back with more mindless nonsense. most likley on friday. that's gonna be my thing. a new blog [at least] every friday. but if something pops into my head.. know that i'll be back here.


adeu for now.
