Long time, no entry

I haven't written for awhile because I was getting sick of writing about the same things all the time. I noticed that all I ever write about is the family I work for (kids supply endless topics) and the environment (President Bush provides endless topics). Then I realized, those things are my life and frankly, I have nothing else to talk about. So I will continue to talk about them. However, I found something else for today. I am sure a lot of you have heard of YouTube. I discovered it when someone emailed me a link to the Evolution of Dance. Then today I was reminded that I saved the web address (as I often do so I have things to look at later when I have nothing to do, which is always) when the Today Show featured the website. So tonight I explored it. And the first video I looked at was one called Where the Hell is Matt? There isn't really a point to this entry expect to recommend YouTube and this particular video. Something so simple brought me much enjoyment, I hope it does for you too. And may I leave you with some wisdom that Matt (from the video) said in his 'Less frequently asked questions': "Why is the world so screwed up? Men. How do we fix it? Women." What a smart, smart man.

A friend of mine has been asking me to tell you to hurry up and blog again; she loves your topics. And so do I.

I like hearing about the family you work for... I mean, are any of us really writing about the most amazing things? No. My last entry was about hair... and I wrote an entry about a blue notebook once. It's life and yes, sometimes it's boring to ourselves. But life is exactly what makes books, movies, and stories exciting, it's not our life, it's someone else's.

Oh, and while you're on YouTube, check out the Butte, Montana clip from the Daily Sow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuFy1pvHzsg It's a pretty funny clip related to the hole in the ground full of toxic water that just sits there (the Berkeley Pit). You all should believe that Montana has nothing to see too cuz then it might stay just the way it is - my own personal playground ;-)

P.S. An Inconvenient Truth is coming to our little culturally diverse theater and we are expecting such high numbers that it might be here for weeks. Exciting!

I wasn't doubting that you all liked my topics, it was more of me getting bored with what I was writing. But thanks for the support, glad to know you like reading what I'm writing. And bdoc, about An Inconvenient Truth, maybe we can see it together when I am there (if it is still there, that is). I haven't seen it yet because I don't want to see it alone, I will be depressed and have no one to talk to about it.

I have a hard time believing I'll be able to wait until you get here in 14 more sleeps.

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder"

I was always a bit skeptic of this phrase. How can being away from a person make you fonder? With time, you will slowly start to forget the sound of their laughter and the scent of their hair. You will forget the way they dance and the way they like their toast. Sure, when you see them again, when they laugh or dance, all those things come rushing back. Being away may make you yearn for them, but you no longer know them as well as you used to. At least that is what I used to think. I should have know this phrase was true since whenever I would see my sisters again, it was like no time had passed. I don't know what it was that made me realize all that I took for granted, maybe it is being away from home for so long or my travel mishaps or my friend's car accident or maybe just that I am getting older, something made me see how I took everything for granted in my life before I came here. It was so easy, I could go up the stairs or across the hall or get in my car and spend a day ...

I Heart The Office!

Image
My sister introduced me to the television show The Office . And I heart it. I saw Seasons 1 and 2 on dvd in the past week (I watched all of Season 2 between last night and today). The only problem now is that they are half way through Season 3, so I have missed several episodes and it won't come out on dvd until at least this summer... hmm, problem. But you want to know the one thing I heart even more than The Office ? Jim Halpert/John Krasinski (character/actor). He is on the show and I have a huge crush on him. I know what you are saying, you are 25 years old (turning 26 in 2 1/2 months) and crushes on famous people at this age is a little weird, and usually I would agree. It has been many years since I have had a crush on a star. But Jim/John is so an exception. In fact, if I could find a real life guy here in Minnecrap that looks like Jim/John, makes the same facial expressions, has the same sense of humor and is as nice, sweet and kind as him, so basically exactly like Jim/J...

All you need is love?

This is a question people have asked for a long time. Is it true? Is love all we really need? I think it would depend on who you ask. When it comes to young children, love is all you need. You know your parents love you and spend time with you, that is what is most important to a child. You don't understand the importance of money or work or health, all that matters is love. Maybe that is what is so appealing about childhood, why we would all do anything to go back, because we were innocent and love really was what made the world go round. As an adult, I now see things differently. Love isn't all there is, we need so much more. Some would say that makes me cynnical, but I am not. I want to believe that love is all we need and for the most part I agree with that statement, however I see that there is a lot more that goes along with love. As a parent, your role is not only to love, but to protect, comfort, support, provide, but common sense says that those things automatically go...
