I was excited.
I thought you weren’t going to go out tonight. And I know that may seem quite selfish, but I just didn’t want them to have yet another chance to hurt you before you leave.
So now, it’s going to be another one of those nights. One of those where I worry. But really, that’s not your fault at all… it’s my fault that I worry about this stuff. And like I said, I...

Today.
Today is a Dog Problems, by The Format, kind of day. The opptomistic side of the record, though.
It’s a good day for me, and I hope the same for you :)
I'm trying
to save you. But you have to let me. And when we’re hundreds of miles away, you must be honest about if you’re alright.
I can’t read your mind. I can’t tell what you’re truly feeling. I can only gauge your thoughts from the sound of your voice.
If you really are breaking down, tell me. I will gladly be the one to save you, because the truth is, I’m the only...
I feel like
I’m forgetting something. But I’ve checked my calendar, checked my to-do lists, thought and re-thought everything, and still have this feeling.
It’s just one of those days, I suppose. I usually tend to not like Sundays, I guess this is another to mark down for that fact.

For you. From me.

“Letters I Never Sent: November 14th, 2008” [12:11AM] I just know that one day I’m going to look back on weekends like this one and completely bask in the sun of the memories of us meeting each other midway. Seymour, Indiana. Our halfway point. I had never heard of the town before either, but as it turns out, I lost a pair of glasses at a half pint hotel there on...
nevermind about the photo thing.
My fucking amazing girlfriend found it for me!
But does anybody know how to speak Korean by any chance? Seriously.

gregbrown:
I’ve spent like ten minutes watching the videos on the Countdown to Election blog. They’re youtube clips from across the world of people counting down to the closing of polls on the west-coast and declaration of Barack Obama’s victory.
After watching a few, it gets kinda surreal since they all hit the same tempo of counting down, half-heartedly celebrating at the end of the...
sometimes.
I fucking hate life.

sooooo funny
Ha, I could not stop laughing at this. Frickin’ awesome.
Whomever you may be.
(Just in case you, by chance, read my blogs, too.)
I did have a nice set of choice words typed out for you, however I’ll do us all a favor and spare you the childish bullshit.
The main point of my side of this, and I’ll say this very nicely for now, is: I would appreciate it, very much so, if you’d stop doing whatever you’re doing that’s bothering her.
My search for today's newspaper.
I’m somewhat of a procrastinator, and I just plain forget things a lot. At 9:47pm tonight I looked at my BlackBerry and remembered I hadn’t gotten a newspaper from today, for a keepsake to show my kids and grand-kids later in life, of course. I seriously just spent the last hour and twenty minutes driving around Murfreesboro, TN, getting out of my car and right back in after being...
I cannot believe Prop. 8 passed.
I just read the following quote in an article posted about how Proposition 8 was passed in California:
“Look at the bible.” he said. “It’s not a man and a man.” - Christopher Miracle (19-year old student at CSU)
And I’m sorry, but I am COMPLETELY FUCKING OUTRAGED ABOUT THIS. I am not, and never have been a big supporter of gay marriage, however, I’ve...
Also.
Tip of the hat to John McCain. I don’t think he could have chosen better words than he did tonight. I don’t agree with the man on many of his views, however, that doesn’t mean I don’t respect him entirely, especially for being such a good sport about this.
Believe in CHANGE.
Thank you, America.
Congratulations, President Obama, it’s an honor to have you as the man that will lead my country to reach new heights. I have hope, again. I am proud, again.
And I was scared I wouldn’t be able to ever say this again, but goddamn do I love my country.
And to everyone, this may be the end of the race, but it’s only the beginning of a very bright future for...
breathtaking.
I’m watching CNN, and they just showed a camera setup in Chicago where Obama will be hopefully making his speech as President,… and I don’t know why, but the shot of people running to get a spot to see it, it was beautiful. You could see them laughing, with smiles on their faces, excited beyond reason. I’m excited for my country, I hope this all works out for the best.

I just can’t stop welling up with tears today. This article didn’t help any.
Holy crap, beautiful. Reminded me of the Sedaris New Yorker piece but more wonderful.
Oh wow. Yeah, this made me just full on cry. Fucking beautiful.
