Great Balls of Fire
I couldn't believe what i was seeing on every channel this morning when i got up to take my dog out. I coudln't find anythign other than this thing flying through the sky that looked like an asteroid or something. Turns out it wasn't an asteroid, but it was Shuttle Columbia.
It's sad! For some reason these national tragedies are the things that get to me, other than that i keep a stern face and a cold heart and never let on that something may be sad or actually get me choked up. But these kinds of things do it.
I can't even watch tv now because i'm sick of seeing the same footage its like they ram it into your brain so that you can't get the image out of your head. It's just like the same footage of the towers coming down on 9/11. I couldn't watch much of that either. I think its because its sad when you think that the families of these astronauts were there wating to greet them and hug them and tell them how proud they were when they finally landed, but instead Pres. Bush greeted them with his condolences and they were sent back home. How awful would that be?
I dont know, i just think its horribly awful though and its on every station minus the crappy cable channels that don't give a fuck about stuff really.
I have to get out so that i don't go back and turn on the tv. I'm going downtown today i think. I love this awesome little antique store down there and I know the guy that lives above it now so he's usually there, or at least he has been since i was in high school so now that i know him he'll be a fun person to go chat with over little crappy broaches and cigarette cases i still can't afford. I love that antique store, i really do!
