another opening.
so, congress upheld Bush's veto of the supplemental bill to speed up the return of troops form Iraq.
Ugh.
Today was a down day, sort of. no work anyways. And only two classes. However, I did spend the majority of the day consumed with schoolwork. I did get a bit of cleaning done though too, so that was nice.
Nora comes home for the summer on Friday. I am glad, she doesn't so much feel the same way. :) I am just so happy at how much she likes it in Portland. She's totally come into her own. Basically, I am oober proud she's my sister.
I really would like to buy Val Emmich's new cd, Sunlight Searchparty, but I haven't yet found it at a satisfactory price. I may very well just end up giving in and buying it anyways.
the absence of god will bring you comfort, baby
and plannings for the poor so let's pretend that we're rich
and i'm not my body for how i choose to destroy it
folk singers sing songs for the working, baby
we're just recreation for all those doctors and lawyers
there's no relief for the bleeding heart
'cause they'll be losing bodies tonight
and Rob says you love love love
then you die
i've watched him while sleeping and seen him cry
with closed eyes
and you're not happy but you're funny
and i'm tripping over my joy
i just keep getting up again
we could daytime drunks if we wanted
we'd never get anything done that way, baby
and we'd still be ruled by our dueling perspectives
and i'm not my perspective
or the lies i'll tell you every time
and morgan says, "maybe love won't let you down
all of your failures are training grounds
and just as your back's turned, you'll be surprised," she says
"as your solitude subsides"
and like i'll teach you how to swim
if you turn the bad in me into good again
and i say there's trouble when everything is fine
the need to destroy things creeps up on me every time
and just as love's silloughette appears
i close my eyes and disappear tonight
and something's gotta change
'cause our love's the slowest-moving train
