"What is love? Great minds have been grappling with this question through the ages, and in the modern era, they have come up with many different answers. According to the Western philosopher Pat Benetar, love is a battlefield. Her paisan Frank Sinatra would add the corollary that love is a tender trap. The stoner kids who spent the summer of 1978 looking cool on the hoods of their Trans Ams in the Pierce Elementary School parking lot used to scare us little kids by blasting the Sweet hit "Love is Like Oxygen"--you get too much, you get too high, not enough and you're gonna die. Love hurts. Love stinks. Love bites, love bleeds, love is the drug. The troubadours of our times all agree: They want you to know what love is, and they want you to show them.

But the answer is simple. Love is a mix tape."

Just a few thoughts.

This poem is what we were told was grandpa's favorite part of the Mason ceremony

and there was more, but I forgot. oh well. it is a pretty poem. brought us all to tears.

I just want to take you out and get you drunk
So I can have my wicked way with you
Im just being honest 'cause I know the other guys
Are thinking just the same way too
And Im not gunna lie and say
That I will take you out to dance, there's just no chance
'Cause I don't even like the same music you do
I just want to have my wicked way with you

Girl, don't you fight it
Don't knock it till you tried it
Just show me some skin, I might bite it
I want to have my wicked way with you

I'm not gonna come over and meet your mom and dad
They know that I was bad
I don't want to meet your friends
Oh, just pretend I like you
I don't want to talk about what happened
On your favourite TV show
I just want to get you close enough
So I can take off all your clothes
I don't want to make you cry or break your heart
Girl, we don't have the time
I'm just thinking of three hours or more
So I can have my wicked way with you

Now, don't you fight it
'Cause I know you're gonna like it
Show me some skin, I might bite it
I want to have my wicked way with you

Thursday, I hung out with the dogs.
( dog paw! )

Friday, I went out with my roommate and one of our friends and some of her work friends.
( wow )

Today! Today I went to the zoo. I should have called one of my sister's high school friends and invited her and her kids to come with, but I didn't think about it in advance. >.< Oh well! I'll go see them tomorrow.
( ohmigod otters! )

I have nothing really interesting to say here, but I thought I'd insert some pics for fun from today, yesterday, and my sister's birthday.
First, my sister's birthday, I went and picked her up from the airport when she flew in from Las Vegas on the red eye. I then took her and her boyfriend out to lunch at Johnny Rockets, where I had a nummy chocolate malt, and there were ketchup smileys on plates
( picture here of ketchup and another of me )

More recently (just the other day, in fact) there was a crazy-foggy day, and it was amazing to me that it was -still- foggy at like, 4:30, so I took a picture of the road I was driving down at that moment..
( fog! )

And, just today, I was driving to go meet my roomie and her dad for dinner, and I saw a pretty sunset, so, out came the camera, and I took a couple of pictures as I drove over the intercoastal. :D
( the pretty! )
I don't know how well I did in my aim of pretty pictures, but I tried.

Anyways. Things have been ok here, hope things are good with all ya'll. :)

I was talking to my roommate earlier... She's never heard of Kinder Suprise Eggs. This needs to be fixed.... Just sayin'. <3

So. Despite the fact that I had an absentee ballot, I -still- went down to Brevard to vote today.

Why?

Because I'm a dumbass that didn't have the postage to mail the ballot before it was too late. There was some debate about whether or not I -really- was going to drive down there, but I did anyway, because not only do I believe my one vote counts, but there are issues on the ballot I _REALLY_ feel strongly about.

I don't want 2 to pass. I want 4 and 8 to pass. I want some of the people I voted for to pass, like extremely.

VOTE people. your vote really does count.

Also? in other news, my mother is among the people photographed waiting to vote on floridatoday.com
