Wow. It's been a while. I almost forgot this existed. Been busy with school, but I'd like to try and keep this thing alive so...
Well, let's see, today marked the return of my migraine, therefore, more pills. I'm not sure if the pills make me drowsy/lethargic or if they just don't take care of that aspect of my headaches. But they do really help control the pain and side-effects. No nausea, dizziness and I can almost ignore the throbbing pain in my head it shrinks so much. Gosh, I love my migraine meds!
Today I found myself thinking about Romeo and Juliet for some odd reason. Probably because of the discussion of Shakespeare with younger bro and friend after WinterJam Sunday night. We did all discuss how completely and totally idiotic Romeo and Juliet is. Honestly, I've never met someone who actually read the play that thought it was romantic (one or two english teachers excluded). And even among English teachers, most of them, when they were being tactful, said "Romeo and Juliet is not his best work...". I have found several retellings that are okay, like West Side Story (I mean, Tony's killed by someone else and Maria doesn't shoot herself [although I heard that was the original story]). I can't stand the though of suicide, especially over some crush. And there's no way Romeo and Juliet had more than a crush; love is something that needs to be nurtured, it doesn't just pop up like that and cause everyone to kill themselves. It's not all about you, idiot (to person who wants to suicide).
Speaking of WinterJam, there was a flyer for Creation Fest in the booklet they gave us at the door. I REALLY WANNA GO! I'm 20 already, how much longer is my mom going to say no because I'm too young and might end up forced to do something. I'm dead serious. She won't let me go to a CHRISTIAN music festival in Pennsylvania because she's got a fear like that. She did, on the other hand, allow me to go to beach week after I graduated, which is just an excuse for new graduates to go to the beack and get drunk, high and laid. Yeah. That's tons safer than Creation Fest. Anyway, younger bro is really pushing for that instead of Beack Week; didn't work for me, but if it works for him, I'm tagging along. Going to Creation Fest has been a dream of mine since I accidentally discovered it halfway through my Senior year.
Well, I'm tired, so I guess that's it for today. Catch'ya'll later!
