Thinking...
I often find myself thinking, "Gosh, why does everyone have to be so tight about everything?" Ya know? Why can't we all just get along and...what in the heck is the deal with some stuff? What's the deal with funky strict curfews? "Be home by eight so I know your safe (because I'm more worried about that than I am glad that you're having a good time, since usually what you do is look forward to said good times)." Geeee...thanks.
What's the deal with those old people who think that black is the reason people go to hell? You know the ones. They do a lot of other stuff to. They say things like "Would you wear those spikey bracelets and that bandana in front of God?" Well....Yeah. I kinda figure that while God isn't really interested in my clothes, He's probably got the Father-of-all fashion sense, and if He DID want to judge me for something, He knows for certain all the bad stuff I've done. He doesn't have to get on my case about something as trivial as my headgear.
What's the deal with those people who think life is a matter of money, or grades, or cleanliness, or beauty, or getting stuff done so they can invent more stuff to do. I mean, it's not like I think I'm better than they are or anything, but I just can't help but wonder: Are they really happy doing nothing but work all day? Do they just like cleaning or studying constantly? Why else would they do it all the time? The ones I've seen almost seem to like doing it, but they always eventually end up cranking about it in some way or another...Or they find out they aren't spending any time with their kids...Yet they wake up they next day and do it again.
It's around this time, that, while I AM only musing, I usually either come up with some clues about these things: Perhaps some people just enjoy doing stressful things because they're used to it, perhaps we chould cut the curfew nazis a little slack since they're just trying to play it safe, and maybe old people are just dumb and snotty. I smile at my new set of discoveries: Today has been a productive day.
In other news, uh, some stuff happened...Yes it definately happened. I went across the street to the church that gives out free food every first Tuesday of the month. The program is called Feeding Frenzy. I hadn't tried it until now, but I was really impressed, thinking for the first time in a while, "Wow, people are so cool!" You would think so to when--for free, now--you just walk into a building and random people give you plates with burgers on them! You pick up drinks! FREE ONES! Lots of people smile at you and say "Hi" and "Welcome" and other polite things, instead of "Shut up" or "Can I borrow your phone?" or something random and profane. There is yelling, but it isn't raucous and course, because there's laughter too! And people are just talking and having fun. No one runs into or shoves you out of the way! And a nice lady comes and brings you chips, then someone prays for your food. I don't care what anyone says: Being inside a church is ten--no fifty times better than being inside a public school building.
*sneezes all over keyboard* Ikki...That'll be the fifth time today. Sneezing is exciting, especially for me...I have no allergies, I hardly ever sneeze, but I think I'm coming down with something.
I'm regretting having watched some of both Peewee's Big Adventure and Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction. Peewee is just dumb, and funny, but it gets obnoxious....And while some of the writing isn't so bad in the other show, the actors aren't very good at all. And all this sort of rubs off on me, for some reason...so I think I'm just going to surf for a while, maybe make a phone call or something ^_^ Maybe recieve a call, myo. Maybe blow my nose, heh. Ciao.
