I am a flittering june bug...
Do-over
Most peculiar experience, this morning. I went out of the house to go to work and I noticed the weather and thought to myself, man, it's cloudy, kinda sucks...the sun is usually out to this time. Then, I realized that I had forgotten my water bottle back on the kitchen table, so I went back into the house to get it. So when I went BACK outside, it was totally sunny, and it totally felt so weird. It was like I replayed the last minute, and made a few changes for the better. So my day already started out a little better on that note...
It completes me
I forgot my cell phone in my friend's car last night after bible study. Maaaaaaaan, I feel so naked. And yes, my cell phone is that important to me. My family always laughs and teases me on how I'm always on my cell phone, but it's true...I can't live w/o it. It may have me on a leash, but it's my connection to all those I love and care about. If I was going to get stranded on a desert island destined to be alone forever, I would ask for a never-need-to-be-charged cell phone and I would die a happy man. But yeah, I feel so weird walking around w/o it...it's like even if I'm not using, it, I know it's missing. I can't wait til the end of work and my friend is done w/ class so we can meet up and I can get it back.
Same time, same place...once...
I was thinking this morning after listening to the news about how we think about what famous people we went to school with, well at least I do, and what feats will be accomplished by people I was around, or on the same campus with. But the thought occurred to me, what about how many of these same people that I see, run into, am in class with, etc., how many of them will go the WRONG way or do something crazy and bad. I mention this because I heard something about that Brian Danz(sp?) dude that went to Irvine and raped and beat that 15 year old chick a few years back. Homeboy was convicted on 4 counts of sexual assault, and some other stuff...I mean the guy lost it, he carved a freakin swastica on her forehead and arms!!! So they were saying he supposedly will get life in prison for this. A lot of my friends and I were on the same campus with this guy, he was in someone's dorm, he was someone's roomate...W-O-A-H. Crazy to think that in a world where there is so much potential for people to succeed, and we wonder who those are, there is an equally strong potential to go the other way. We always see what good peopel can do, and not wonder about how bad they could be...but I think that's good...shows that we are generally more optimistic. Life is so chaotic sometimes...and this is just the tip of the iceberg...I didn't even know him personally...but I wonder who I do know personally that could have gone this way...
