Bah. So.. at approximately 6:30am I set out on my bike in hopes of finding a quaint spot to have a traditional breakfast.. I biked half way to the mall... Altogether I biked about 6 miles this morning looking for breakfast.. I was so hungry. Everything was closed until 10am.. 10am??? bah.. that's almost lunchtime. So.. I thought well, I'm on this side of town.. might as well buy a fern at the local nursery.. sweet sweet I thought.. But.. though it was bustling with activity it turns out it too was closed. bleh.. So I ended up just going to Albertson's and buying stuff to make my own damn breakfast.. but then by the time I got home I felt faint and too lazy to cook. The irony is.. it is now almost 10am and I still don't have breakfast.. if I had chilled until now I would have had the breakfast I wanted..
Bah.. I have awful timing.. oh&btw boo on stinky roadkill. Mm.. appetizing.
Yesterday I heard that my friend died. I thought that it was ok, bc it couldn't be helped. I felt really numb.
I went to his myspace page.. and I started crying.. It seems I am actually quite sad that my friend is dead.. I feel bad for skipping out on his parties and not staying in better touch.. I feel like a rotten friend.. but for a person surrounded by so much love I don't think he felt any lack..
I know a lot of ppl are really sad about him dying.. I hope that people will remember the man that was always optimistic and dedicated to living his life fully.
I definitely remember that man. If there is an afterlife, I imagine his will be a happy one.

Things Fall Apart
By
The Roots
Release date: 1999-02-23
The depths of my sentiments.. who could deign to understand.. who could bear such weight without winged feet.. and it is becoming ever certain that no such cherub shall come.. No seraphim shall bring my release.
I watched the most delightfully sorrowful movie today.. another tragic love story.. I cried.. Bitterly wept tears of recognition, because I too have felt such pain..
How many times on silver platter have I lain my still beating heart.. but now I fear it beats no more.. inconsistent at best. One too many injuries can leave a person desolate..
..Yet still even as I wander this desert wasteland I have some hope for an oasis.. but even so.. who could call such a temperal relief home?
Let's get tested! (yay)

I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!
Refuse to be victimized! Refuse to be subjugated! It is your choice.
I am not pleased to hear about the two sexual assaults happening downtown in the past three weeks. I am more than not please, I am MAD! I am ANGRY! I was afraid but now I am feeling very action oriented. I refuse to be victimized, I will not go down without a fight.
I plan on doing everything within my power to assist in the creation of an informed and empowered populace!!
I'm mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore. Shout it from the rooftops.. shout it out your windows! Tell your mom, your neighbor, your sister.. use your voice! use it loud, "I'M MAD AS HELL AND I AM NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!" Say this with your mouth and say it with your heart.
I am on a mission to create positive change in our community, who is with me???
Repost this! Blog this! let this become a unified message!
Together we can strike fear into the hearts of our oppressors!
