I probably shouldn't admit this but I watch The Hills. I'm embarrassed by this fact. I definitely do not admire myself for it but I can't help it nonetheless. It's kind of like finding a beautiful beetle. My sophomore year in high school biology we had to do a bug box.. I forget what they're called but it was an entomology portion of the class and the random extra credit bug was found by me. Strangely, I'll never forget the moment it's metallic turquoise/goldish body, that resembled a badass chameleon paint job, lit up in the sunlight as it jumped from one pile of rocks over the little stream to another pile of rocks. It didn't have a prayer, what with my ninja-like butterfly net. It was mine and I loved it without even knowing that it was the extra credit bug. I'm pretty sure I got an A on my bug box because of it. Anyway, I guess I remember the whole thing because it was a moment when I clearly saw how life is about perspective. Up until that point I would have screamed and danced around the damn things, but once they became my objective I began to appreciate, even like, them. I guess I've learned to like some bugs (more than others (spiders!))because of that. I even like snakes now. Which is weird too, but that's a different story. So random thought. That just came to me out of nowhere. This is why I don't usually share my journal entries with people. They're strange and often make no sense to anyone but me... anyway, back to The Hills ...I loathe Spencer. I think that was my point. I'm disgusted by them but somehow fascinated at the same time. It's a strange paradox. But that's life. There you go.
If you haven't heard Greg Laswell. My God, get the CD.. buy it, download it.... whatever you have to do. Yes there are elements of other popular artists - ColdPlay - for example, but still. I've listened the the entire CD like 10 times today and I'm not bored yet. It's amazing. Speaking of Coldplay so is Viva La Vida. ADORE IT.
So many things to say, share, ponder, elucidate, explore but it's late. Sorry, I've been in word mode all day editing. Ugh. more later to all the folks that read this blog, Mari. :)
night. Night to you too, Beto.
