SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.....
"In Germany they came first for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist.Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up." - Pastor Martin Niemoller

It's been way too long since my last entry, and it's really hard to describe how I've been feeling as of late. It kind of reminds me of that feeling you get when you've been constipated for a really long time. You know the feeling - something akin to discomfort. Then as more time passes, the less pleasant you become and your responses to everything quickly turns into quirky variations of "fuck it" or "fuck you". At this point you know you're in bad shape because nothing you've tried seems to be working to help release the pressure, yet it seems to be getting worst....
Congradu-fucking-lations - you are now entering the state of delirum, where your wine glass is always half empty and you can't find your bong anywhere.
I just wanted to commment of my current mental state......because (like a crazy person) I thought that calling to confirm my docotors appointment would be a simple thing....but now, after 26 mins and 55 of listening to the phone ring....that fact that I have been on my period since july just doesn't seem that signifigant anymore. The fact that I have been waiting for MONTHS to see a doctor that's just gonna refer me to someone else just doesn't seem that infuriating anymore. The fact that I was able to write, re-write, edit and proof read this entry, while waiting for someone to pick up a phone that has been ringing for close to half and hour now is actually kind of calming. It's as if someone pressed the pause button on the remote control of time, and the only thing I can feel is the air as it slowly escapes from every pore of my body.
only a few more hours till voting officially starts here in phill...and i am optimistic about the prospects of barack obama becoming the next president of the united states. i've been real short on words lately, for some reason or another, but i did want to make a quick post (with another video), before the election comes to a close, so that when I look back on my blog years from now, i will be reminded why i felt so strongly about barack obama. the other day when his 30 min ad was aired on all the major stations...one thing that he said really hit home:
"I am not a perfect man. And I will not be a perfect President. But I
can promise you this - I will always say what I mean and mean what I
say. I will be honest about the challenges we face. And most
importantly, I will wake up every single day ready to listen to you,
and work for you, and fight for you not just when it's easy, but when
it's hard."
I'm only 26 years old, but for my entire adult life, I have only known the president of the united states to be a wolf in sheep's clothing, plain and simple. if you look at the past 8 years wouldn't you agree? the way george bush ran the country, he made it seem as though the concerns and opinions of the american people was just background noise. and in many respects, he really didn't run the country at all, and america was fine with that (he got re-elected, right?). he played hooky on the presidency without remorse towards, or regard for his the americans he swore to campaign for and that is the opposite of the way the country should be run.
for the last few years, america was bush's playground....but the reality is that it's our country. every last one of us. we've allowed it to be hijacked for too long, and it's time to make our voices heard, and get our power back. barack obama really is going to be a breath of fresh air, and the changes we all make together over the next 4 years will redefine america as we know it.
ok, i'm getting off the soapbox now. but it'll be interesting to see how many people actually turn out to vote here in center city, and across the tri-state area. i'll be out and about taking pics...hope you will be too!
ps....
i think i might be crazy, but swear i just get a phone call from scarlett johnasen. is anyone else getting these random machine calls to vote tomorow? hahahaha...sigh....and mayor nutter called me twice earlier also....go barack!
i just saw this on YOUTUBE and thought that it was a pretty low blow. really? obama is a slave driver now? nice...really mature for someone trying to become president of the united states. good luck there "my friend"..
and why did they have to use a picture of him looking like that? hahaha....mmcain is off the chain!
