you are seagreen
#2E8B57

Your dominant hues are cyan and green. Although you definately strive to be logical you care about people and know there's a time and place for thinking emotionally. Your head rules most things but your heart rules others, and getting them to meet in the middle takes a lot of your energy some days.

Your saturation level is higher than average - You know what you want, but sometimes know not to tell everyone. You value accomplishments and know you can get the job done, so don't be afraid to run out and make things happen.

Your outlook on life can be bright or dark, depending on the situation. You are flexible and see things objectively.

How much of our lives are spent leaving and being left behind. Angry red taillights trailing off in the distance.

I am in the midst of going through my soon-to-be-deleted umich mailbox. Conspiracy theorist that I am, I am beginning to think ICTS must be in cahoots with local bars and liquor stores, because even though it's noon on a Sunday, I now very much want a drink.

Pearl Jam's new CD is not helping the mood either. "Life Wasted"? I'll trade you anytime, Mr. Vedder. But Pearl Jam is a time-honored traditon in my life just the same. I remember making a tape of Ten off my brother's CD back in the day, and listening to it when I was supposed to be asleep.

I picked the trifecta of the Preakness yesterday. Too bad I didn't bet. But sadly my childhood hero, Gary Stevens, is now in the announcer's booth.

Anyway, I should get moving. Having dinner at my brother's house.

They took your life

They could not take your pride

3rd April 1968
"We’ve got some difficult days ahead. But it doesn’t matter with me now. Because I have been to the mountaintop. And I don’t mind.

Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I’m not concerned with that now.

I just want to do God’s will. And He’s allowed me to go up the mountain. And I’ve looked over. And I’ve seen the promised land.

I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people will get to the promised land. And I’m not fearing any man.

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord."

I thought I was having a bad day

It's been a rough couple of weeks. Mostly emotionally. And I worked 40 hours for the first time in several years (while still going to school, doing homework, etc).

I wish I could focus like I used to. Now it's just deadlines whizzing by and an ever-growing mess surrounding me. Quite literally, even. If you hear about a girl being crushed by a pile of dirty laundry, it'll be me.

Last night I dreamed about the music video for Belinda Carlisle's song "Heaven is a Place on Earth." Mainly the glowing blue globes from it actually.

Which led me to find this today:

I remember being maybe 4 or 5 years old, on one of those winter evenings when it's dark by 6pm, going through the drive-through at A&W with my mom, and listening to that song. One of those one-moment, indelible childhood memories.

EDIT: Guess it doesn't. http://www.youtube.com/v/t_Ot4mOxvtM to see it anyway.

Can this afternoon go any slower?

U2. Tonight. :D

I don't know whether it's awesome or pathetic that U2 is one of the only constants in my life.

It may be corny, but I'll probably tear up tonight. And the ONE foundation honestly gives me chills.

Everybody's got something they get seriously, sincerely geeked about, right? Well, if not they don't know what they're missing.

:D

I feel the need, the need for speed
