Im Only Happy When It Rains..Im only Happy When It's Complicated
Hello all,
I havent felt like updating but Sara just called me and she was so upset about Hunter S. Thompson's death. He was her hero and I felt like there was not much I could say to help her feel better. All I can say is "Im Sorry" and sometimes those words can be meaningless to people. I wish I couldhelp her feel better. How do you help someone cope with the loss of their hero, especially if he commited suicide. What kind of message does it send out to people who admired this person? Is it that life isnt worth living anymore, or is it that if he was gonna die, it wasnt going to be a mystery date, he would be the one to decide his fate? I dont know. He was in his sixties. I wish I read his stuff. This will make me appreciate great writers and read their work. Like Sara said, I guess most great writers kill themselves, like Ernest Hemingway and Sylvia Plath.
Ive been home alone all weekend and I wish Andres could have come to visit me. Ive acted a little selfish and spoiled because I complained about it to him, even though I know he cant. It just sucks when Im this far inthe pregnancy and I just want him to be with me. I caught up with one book for class. It's such a good read. It's called "war and genocide" , i recommend it if you like History. I was watching a baby story but Im gonna finish reading this play. OH GOD, i have to start memorizing my lines for my class. I have a lot of work to do, but i dont feel like doing it. All i want to do is sleep and rest. I just dont feel very productive. Well, i think I'll make caldo de pollo today. Its raining nonstop. It just feels like a soup day.
Yesterday I saw "the Haunting of Jim Crow". It was really good. It was about Strom Thurmond and his illigitimate daughter Essie Mae Washington, who was half black. I felt that it challenged me, because it just showed me how much our country has progressed in 50 years, but at the same time our country is regressing. I look at our country and I cant beleive the kinds of laws we use to have. We werent that far from Hitler's Germany in some ways. (im not saying we were like them though) That is the kind of theatre i like to see. I like a challenge. I cant imagine how that woman must have felt holding back that she was Thurmonds daughter until after his death. Anyways, thats enough of my rambling. Im gonna go read. :( Goodday all!
