I posted some new songs today. Go check ‘em out. They’re a bit more in line with my mood. I left Summertime up there just ’cause… well I dunno. It’s certainly not summertime here. It’s barely broken 50 degrees today and it is completely grey outside – not a single cloud outline in sight. Just bleh grey.
I went to the US Embassy to light a candle yesterday after work. It was nice. Though one completely retarded comment I have is that I don’t understand why people don’t take the plastic wrappings off of flowers that they lay down. The piles and piles of wrapped bouquets actually looks like a mound of garbage, instead of beautiful flowers. I think I will go back and light another one today.
As much as I am trying to stay away from everything, I just can’t.
I had a nice talk with an old boss in ICQ this morning. He was saying how really random people were e-mailing him to find out how he was, etc. And that he thinks this is because they just want to know someone who has been hurt, so they can legitimize all the feelings of sorrow they are having. Hmm I never really thought about like that.
I’m not having much trouble legitimizing my sorrow. I am having a problem keeping myself together tho…
