| So, I realized that only Xanga users can post comments on here, and since many of my readers are non-Xanga users, I might have to do something else for my blog. I'm thinking about that, and I'll figure something out. I want everyone to be able to read it and comment. So hold on all you non-Xanga users - like Neva - I'll have something better before too long. | | |
| So I watched The Brothers Grimm the other night. Kinda interesting. I love those old-style movies, or whatever you'd call that. The medieval setting and the swords and the knights and fairy tales. I certainly wouldn't say it was my favorite movie, by any means, but it was pretty interesting. I'd say it was worth the 2 hours, or whatever it took, to watch it. But then, I seem to not be so critical of movies as other people are. Someone may tell me that a movie sucked, but then when I see it, I think it's alright. Maybe my standards for a good movie are lower than others. Or maybe I just know how to appreciate things when they're less than perfect, or less than quality. 
Saw another movie a few weeks ago that I'd been wanting to see. That was Aeonflux, and it was pretty good. Remember than one, Lecia?? That was the one that Himy and Lecia and I said we wanted to see, but Taylor was like no way - or something like that. Anyway, it was a pretty good movie. You should watch it. Those are my favorite kind of movies - the ones that portray society like something like that. I don't know how to explain it, but yeah, I like those kind of movies. The Island was another good one. And The Thirteenth Floor. I like things that are outside of what we think of as normal or real. I like to dip into the fantastic and extraordinary, or even just plain weird. If I want to watch normal, I just have to look at the people around me. I don't need a movie for that. 
And there are my movie thoughts for the day. | | |
| So yeah, my name was on national television last night. And probably nobody saw it, but it was there!!! That's what counts, right? So this is the story: my uncle and aunt work at a tv station here in Arkansas - Safe TV is what it's called - and they have some work for me to do while I'm here as well. Every Wednesday and Thursday nights they do a live show - America Talks on Wednesday, and a Sports talk show on Thursday. So last night was the sports one, and I got to run the camera for it. It wasn't hard - was really easy actually - not much action and all - but it was fun and I totally enjoyed it! And then my name was in the credits at the end of the show. How cool is that?  So that's my cool story for the day... | | |
| I'm really touring the country right now. It's been pretty interesting. I went over to Arkansas to visit an aunt and uncle I have there, and my cousin - their son - was graduating this past weekend, so I came up to Michigan with them for that. The graduation was neat, then they spent the last couple of days house shopping - not the most interesting thing I've ever done with someone, but it's all good. We actually looked at a really awesome house yesterday. I call it the Art House - it was like an old fashioned manshion, with totally cool colors, and huge beautiful rooms, four stories, just BEAUTIFUL!! Totally my kind of house. | | |
| I left South Carolina yesterday evening, and with a couple of stops, and a wrong turn and some backtracking, I arrived in Springdale, Arkansas this afternoon. I'm starting to get a bit tired of driving. (Did I really just say that???) Or at least of driving alone. It was a lonely drive. Just me and my little blue car. Funny thing, I didn't even listen to music the whole way. I just didn't really want to. Am I crazy? I don't know. Guess I had a lot on my mind and didn't want any background noise. Yeah, quite possibly I'm crazy.
So anyway, I'm here, but I left my heart back there. Driving away from Salem yesterday was the hardest thing I've ever done. I mean, how are you supposed to leave the one person you love, the one person you want to spend the rest of your life with, and just drive away - say goodbye and drive away? How do you do that and live through it? I feel like everything's over. I left my heart back there, and I can't imagine how to go on. That was where I wanted to be - it still is where I want to be. That is the man I want to be with, and I can't imagine loving anyone else. He holds my heart like no one else ever has, and to just drive away, even though I know I have to, is like dying a bit inside. There is nothing I can do, nothing else I can say, absolutely no way I can change how things have turned out. Damn.
Well, all that aside, I'm here, and I'm surviving. I'm hanging out with my aunt and uncle here in Arkansas, and they have some work on their house and whatnot that I can help with, so that should keep me busy and occupied, and maybe I'll be able to figure out what to do next.
And life goes on....... | | |
