[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

When Jason and I heard this, mouths closed mid-sentence. Worlds paused. Our hearts grew and we were just glad we were together to share it. 

I hope you will feel it too.

weird times man... man man man

This is jumping on the bandwagon. I don’t really care because I like blogging even though I try to convince myself I don’t need to. I usually stop blogging when I’m unhappy, but seeing how I have been more than happy over the last few months, I don’t see why not. Besides, Tumblr makes sense. Not like this nonsense “Twitter”. Fucking Twitter. I receive text messages, “I’m following you on twitter now!!” Well, I don’t know what it means to ‘follow’ but when it comes to my Twitter account, everyone ‘following’ me has to be walking in place. Marching in place. Whatever. 

A list of things that I hate about the internet and what it has done to people:

  • Twitter
  • Facebook or what I like to call ‘E vomit’
  • When people use html to make everything they type centered… there are only certain kinds of people who do that it seems. They are either 16 or an asshole. 
  • Cryptic bulletins on myspace aka a plea for comments.
  • People who say PC4PC?? Is that right?? I think that’s what they say.
  • Me being a hypocrite for having a Twitter and Facebook account and not planning on getting rid of them.
  • People who post bulletins directed toward one or two of their friends. I get it. You’re liked!
  • Distant relatives in their 40s and up that I’ve never met before that send me a friend request on a regular basis followed by a message that says “I’m your cousin!!” You are creepy.
  • How social networking on the internet and people from church don’t mix.
  • How Tumblr is making my livejournal go away after 7 years.

I haven’t had a real job since December and it didn’t phase me until last week. I need a job. I am hoping to move across the country with Jason (my beau or boyfriend) to Portland, OR. We want our souls to be open and clear and to be married on top or inside of a glacier. We have a thing for the west coast. I have a thing for towns that aren’t in Florida. 

I feel like I have been talking about moving for the last 2 years and nobody believes me anymore. New York City, Los Angeles, Milwaukee??, New York City again, Portland. The furthest I’ve gotten is downtown St. Petersburg from Clearwater. I was 30 minutes away from home and I felt like I was exploring other planets. I felt separated and I liked it, so, imagine how across the country will feel! Other universes. Alien friends. “the multiverse!” Jason says. 

I am just ready for a public transit system.
