Spring and other things.
Spring. Boing!~! I guess it's nice to have more time with the sunlight again, but for some reason I get a little more ADD issues at this time. You know how in Seattle they say there are higher occurances of suicide due to SAD Seasonal Affect Disorder? Well, it seems that my issue is more like, drop the S put on a D and gimme my A.D.D. I get all introspective. I also get ready for my kids to dump on me for being me. Oh well. Had an AWESOME dinner with Tom last night. Great to spend some time with him- AND be at a restaurant that I enjoy the food at- it really made me smile! Seeing Tom makes me smile anyways. Cool guy, IMHO. So.. let's see. Rant? Nah. OH! I'm going to see Wicked on Tuesday night. Most excellent! Haven't been to a show in so long; other than the ballet which I, of course, enjoy. But you know, there's just something about a musical, a live performance that feels good to me.
Speaking of live shows, saw the school play this weekend. Very cool! I laughed so much, rather unexpected, I might add. It was pretty neat to see J finally on the actual stage instead of doing the sound. Sound's inmportant, for example, what would a show be without the sound effects? It would be a Charlie Chaplin revival, that's what. But, it just was pretty neat to see him do more. The whole cast was great. Sure wish more people in the area were adventurous enough to go see Shakespeare- in comedy style.
Ok, final thought. Know what I wish I could eradicate? Aside from genocide and atrocities and all that.. I'll start small here. I wish I could wipe out this: Know how there's always people out there, who know absolutely nothing about what you do, or like to do, or want to do, but feel they are the absolute, know all, God-power about it? They're the ones who'll be first to tell you what you do, or want to do, is a waste of time or stupid. They're also the same ones who'll tell you their life pretty much sucks wind and they get the raw deal all the time, aren't they? Or do I just know them all and you guys don't.? I say, if it's not going to cause harm or destruction and it's a challenge, go for it. If it doesn't work out, at least you actually gave it a shot instead of sitting there, all scared of what might be or might not be. Right? I'd rather have my laszt words be more like I'm glad I gave ____ a try, it was an experience. Instead of, gee, I wish I took the time or chance on _____ it might've been a nice experience.
I pray for the courage to go full steam ahead.
