Lecture in a Car

So, I went to a class tonight. That's just setting the stage. Well, when it was time to go home, I asked a guy that lives near me to take me home. I'm always hesitant to ask a ride from him, because he always analyzes my "talkativeness". So were not on the road, before he begins an in depth lecture on how my not talking doesn't help the world. And you don't grow and God wants as to talk. I hardly ever feel angered by people outside my family. And then he asks "So why don't you talk?" First I said, "Because sometimes I have nothing to say." Well that doesn't satisfy him. Oh no, he like, "Did you say that the last time I asked? Can you get a better excuse by then?" And then I said, "I speak when I want to."
"Fair enough," he says. Then he asks, "Then why when you do speak, you speak soft and quiet?" And I said, "Because that's how I speak." I put some stubbornness in my voice. I couldn't get home fast enough. I'm so aggravated. Ahhh! Rant over.

    ARGH makes you just want to slap him and yell "SHUT UP!!!"

    Ha, then he wouldn't think you're soft and quite anymore.

    :P

    It's sounds like my one friend and I... he always teases me, but as frustrating as it is, I always think it's fun. A nice and easy bicker... well, sometimes it can get pretty nasty. :o) Though I think he likes me... wow, I over-analyze things way too much.

    It's weird to think of you with a quiet voice. Actually, it's weird to think of any LRRHer's WITH a voice. :o) I'm pretty quiet too; in fact just today someone told me I need to loosen up and be a little louder.

Library Memorial

^I made this sign. :) A year from today, my public library closed down because of lack of funds. So we had a rally/funeral/memorial service for our library today. A group of people and kids march down our downtown area and up to the courthouse front steps. Reporters from the local news, radio and paper were there. The newspaper that was doing the story could send out a photographer, so I got to be the "photographer" I took pictures and I read a poem I wrote about the library closing. So I might appear on the local news, which is weird and cool at the same time. And here's the poem I wrote: Destruction of a Library World of Words, Their time is ending. On the shelves they sigh a bitter sigh. Why should people cry? Only words on paper Behind brick walls Why do I sigh, This humble cry? Why do the words mean so much to me? How can people not feel what I feel? About an old building that smells like old paste That binds together beautiful words In the arms of ancient paper Old...

Gilmoritis

So, have you ever heard of Gilmore Girls? Or watched it? This is my favorite TV show ever. And this weekend I had a sudden hankering for it, so I found a (possibly questionable) way to watch in on the internet for free. I watched some of the best ones and now I'm starting from the beginning. Right now I'm on episode 11 in season one. The quirkiness and quick delivery of comebacks are fabulous, Lorelai and Rory are awesome. And I love Luke, he falls in with Mr Darcy and Finn for me. Got to love a scruffy guy in plaid. Anyways, that's what I've been doing with my time recently, I've also decided to rewrite a story of mine in a notebook. I got a blank notebook from the stack my mom has from the great back to school deals she finds. So that's something else I'm doing, it's a lot different to write with a pen instead of WordPerfect with a delete button. I hope to get use to it and be able to get my ideas out. Well, thanks for listening.
