Well yet another day and another entry, I am posting more on here than myspaz for several reasons
1)My Space wreaks of the same douchbaggery as Starbucks does they are both filled with overly caffeinated emos, 2)yet I keep my page because it is one the very few links I have to friends during times such as what is going on here in New Orleans. So today I got some kudos on accomplishments I have done such as the juice fasting in the past, however today I actually had a few solids... a granola bar and a feta cheese and spinach stuffed chicken braut. Not bad but once I am completely healed up I will tackle the juice fast. Honestly I am not able to do so atm and two drinking the protein supplements makes me feel like I am cheating on it so soon I plan on dropping by whole foods for my juices or making juices from scratch as I have the tools to do it.
In other news the "Silent Hill" Zombie fest is going good for the most part tho I am semi stuck in one area I seem to forget where a few of the manikin pieces are hiding at.
As for the PHP MySQL studies I need to crack a whip on that as I want to learn but right now I am a bit scatterbrained due to the reeling of the panicky people I had to deal with today... its rather disheartinging to see people so distraught but I understand what they are going through all to well.. I was here for katrina, and now possibly Gustav.
My feelings are this, the storms gonna come or miss us, are we ready? And two no matter how ready we want to believe ourselves we aren't to some degree because of Katrina. With myself like I message a friend today and said " I am irked, I just get to a point in my life an am fricking happy, I got a good job, a wonderful boyfriend, and a nice home and now this shit. But like all else I am prepping for the worst but hopping for the best. After all what does all the fear and panic in the world going to do me?
Like after Katrina once I got outside the city, and in Baton Rouge and working it wasn't so bad I woke up at the crack of dawn caught the florida to segan lane bus,or fairfield to highland'/bluebonnet bus sometimes the airline and to bestbuy or compusa i went. In my down time I was at the Mall of Louisiana having a blast with friends.
So tonight we went walking at the levy's again... I feel bad because there was no weights today and I wanted to hit the gym and do some weight training but maybe tomorrow night... as again I just had the minor surgery and should be resting a bit more but yet I am not one who anymore wants to be in bed doing nothing I like doing things..
So anyway speaking of doing things, a friend of mine from Memphis calls she wanted to know if we was going to be safe for the storm, I hope so as again we are heading a hair bit north of here for it. I just hope I can work from there if I need to as my employer is wanting me back to work asap...
So what to do for tomorrow?? any ideas I stop and think hmmm ideas for tomorrow on what I can do aside work, pack and study my proggy crap and play games... ideas anyone.. after all I want to do a lil celebrating life....
but with all thats going on this is how i feel best summed up..
I mustve dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
Theyre moving into the street.
Now did you read the news today
They say the dangers gone away
But I can see the fires still alight
There burning into the night.
Theres too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Cant you see
This is a land of confusion.
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands were given
Use them and lets start trying
To make it a place worth living in.
Ooh superman where are you now
When everythings gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour.
This is the time
This is the place
So we look for the future
But theres not much love to go round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion.
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands were given
Use them and lets start trying
To make it a place worth living in.
I remember long ago -
Ooh when the sun was shining
Yes and the stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As I held you tight
So long ago -
I wont be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
Were not just making promises
That we know, well never keep.
Too many men
Theres too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Cant you see
This is a land of confusion.
Now this is the world we live in
And these are the hands were given
Use them and lets start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for.
This is the world we live in
And these are the names were given
Stand up and lets start showing
Just where our lives are going to.
