political virgin

now if you also are a political virgin that feels like you are then only person that truly does not understand whats going on around you during these political runnings, then you too will feel and understand my thoughts of the note. If you know everything and anything about politics and can show me and easy and truly understandable way of understanding politics then please share your great knowledge with me.

let me start out saying i grew up in the same united states you grew up in. Almost every election day through the years i would go with my mother to the voting place watch her as she filled out her ballot, then the nice man at the counting place would give me a "I voted" sticker as well i loved it. I always said yay for elephants and nay to donkeys because my parents basically shunned any other way of thinking. i would stay up all night on the couch going in and out of sleep waiting to hear if my republican candidate that i was going for would make it in the election. I liked the excitement about it, but that was all i knew. A very serious matter only depended on what animal i liked better.

when i was 18 it was time for me to for real vote. It was the interesting battle between Kerry and Bush. Still not knowing or understanding what was going on i was told to vote for bush ( and personally he seemed like nice cool guy) so i did.

well as the weeks became closer to november 7th the tv ads for different political positions in nashville became intoxicating. How is this going to make you vote for a certain person, and in real honesty just plain vote. I shall admit i thoughtmany long times about not voting, because of how upset i was with the battles of stupidity on the tv ads. if thats what politics is then obviously its not helping our country, and there is no need for me to put my two cents in for something i think is plain stupidity. when i would mention to somepeople that i was thinking of not voting it was like there heads were about to pop off. i unleashed a dragon inside of them, my question why is that dragon there, is it because you truly believe in these politics and if so then good be strong and passionate about something but if you unleashed the dragon because thats what your mom or dad did when you said something weird about voting then maybe you need to rethink why your so strong about it. I asked a couple people why they were so passionate about, i did not get one good answer. they all could really not remember why.sad.

last night after i got off work me and my mother stood outside of our local library, in the pouring raining for thirty minutes. then once we got inside the building we waited for two hours to vote. imagine i was not being the most Godly person at the time feeling my attitudes about the voting system and not eaten dinner and was board out of my mind. i thought about itfora long time, i thought how people really have fought to get a say in the country. but does our one vote really truly decided anything anymore. i want to know.  well i voted. im not really sure for what but i voted. when i was standing in the rain listening to the people around me say how it was for a good cause , you know booting them selves up trying to make the horrid situation better. all i could think of was the Global Night commute for the invisible children. I thought how i walked so many miles in the rain, and did not have sore thought in my mind at all. Now that was for a good cause. I know im probably missing the big picture, and obviously i wasn't that good in my goverment class. but i think something is missing, and i want to see what we can do about it.

its cardigan time.

 it's found inside a strip of color

wedged between a interesting moment

sitting on top of that exact note

hidden under a blade of grass

sometimes not even seen -just known from the chill bumps on the skin

- That is the development of complete joy.

in this time of not knowing, i have focused on what i do know. Joy in simple things, will never leave me. It is almost october, everytime i step out of my car and look at the roof of my house it is a shade darker from more and more leaves piling on top. it is six o clock and the sun is slowly fading. soon the flip flops will start to pile up in the closet, and the toboggans will have to be dug out. Im oddly excited, of the unknown.

ooo ga goooga

so one out of 4 slashes in my mouth decided to bubble up today it was a pretty weird random pain, and then it popped so i guess were ok.

im at the best friends new home in erin, tn. my absence was way to long. But i have rejoined with my good friend, and seen here new way of life. im a fan.

she got a dog yesterday. i dont know if you know anything about me, but i dont know nothin' about animals. this is the point where people laugh and say yeah me either. guys im not jokin i have no knowledge of how to act around them just the normal basics of what do with them. well duke (the new dog in town) is just becoming potty trained there have been several incidents on the carpet and many moments that he has growled at us and i feared my life. but i  think that im doing pretty good, i like it when it just lays there. yeah goodtimes.

well no work tomorrow , thank you labor day action.

another one bites the dust

so the bruders married. It was a gorgeous wedding, Elisa looked like a model and we partied like crazy at the recption. nazarene style.

so the nazarene seinfeld gang had more then a thousand inside jokes in three days. i love them so much , why do we have to live so far away. but hey i get to see them in a week! yaya!

I was sad that i could not go to shelley and chris's wedding also, i heart it was also purely amazing.

So i got my wisdom teeth out today, no more wisdom friends, no more.

so who sings that song "She's crazy" i really like it alott. who sings it people?
