I was made for a different era

Good morning sports fans. I know you've probably been awake for awhile, but I'm a college student and most of you can understand this. It's been a good couple of weeks filled with school and vacationing to the beach. All I can say currently is that it's the weekend and thank God, but I've woken up with a terrible headache and everything is very loud. So besides the fact that I feel as though my writing sounds retarded and boring, we'll keep going with this.

I heard about and recently ran across an article on digg about a documentary coming out with Jack White, Jimmy Page, and the U2 guitarist. It's essentially a history of the electric guitar mixed in with what these guys are doing with theirs. I'm excited to see what's going to happen when these 3 get in a room together with all that genius and tear it up.



I also saw an article on digg about a lady in some foreign country that married her dog. Of course the page was filled with comments of people making fun of her and calling her names. She said that "other men are skirt-chasers, cheaters and liars", but her dog was loyal and respected her. The priest, along with a few curious locals were there to witness this unusual pairing of beings. The priest said not discourage her, because she found true happiness at last and why would you want to take that away from her? Pushing aside the fact that this is a bit unorthodox, the reality is that she has every right to be happy. There are too many terrible things in this world and sometimes the only thing left that will not disappoint us is the thing that makes the least sense. I feel like to the normal everyday person that believes in God but doesn't necessarily follow him, following him would seem like it makes no sense. Well isn't it so simple to drift day to day relying on yourself and your relationship with others. Of course! But where can we find out true happiness? Who the hell has the answers when all of this becomes monotonous and drains your happiness instead of filling it? I believe God has that happiness. Why would you take that happiness away from someone? Or for that matter if you had that happiness, why would you use hatred to spread that message? Some people are just too much. So think about that... love, happiness, and all. And when you really give that a thought... get back to me.

They call you Lady Luck,
