honestly, i can't post. there is just too much going on. the potential war with iraq is why mostly. this war which may or may not be a political ploy (for elections) depending on who you talk to. and if it is, i am just hoping that somewhere in that republican party, there exists one person, a sole good person, who can come out and just tell the public, that in fact it's true, that it is a political ploy. b/c if it is a ploy and we do have a war, and there are many, many, many people hurt or killed...i just will not know how they can sleep at night.

there is a close friend who is in a relationship who is dealing with things that are hurting him, and so they hurt me.

those three men, the medical students, f-d up it's true. but what do people know about racism, about having people judge them as terrorists even b4 they open their mouths to talk about bombings. why is it that people cannot put themselves in others' shoes,for a minute...why did they do it? i think, trying to put myself in their shoes...i think that they were dealing with anger at being judged, fear of being in a place that is unfamiliar to them, and wanting to poke fun at a society that chooses to blame them for the actions of idiots(the real terrorists). if they did not have a sense of humor, then they would be broken, they would give in to the shame, guilt, fear, anger, the feeling of not being american. did they want it to get to this level, of course not, they just probably wanted to bug eunice (robin told me that he read somewhere, possibly msnbc, that her son had told her that they were acting like it was a joke, and to not worry about it!). these medical students are potentially going to be kicked out of school b/c they were overheard (heresay) mentioning sept 11, bombing, sept 13 (that day), etc., the hospital that these students studied in is getting threats, now why are these threats not called terrorism, is it not causing terror to the administration of the hospital, the patients who are in the hospital.

any good things? well, on friday i saw wilco's new movie i want to break your heart with preeth and robin. we all thought that it was a good movie, of course we all like the band alot. i particularly liked this documentary of wilco making their fouth album, losing a member of their band, and losing a record label, b/c i used to be in the music business. i used to work with bands who have artistic differences and break up, i worked with b/s people, who wouldn't book the band for a primo spot b/c someone else is more well known, but brings in 5 people, while band brough in 100...the industry was fun and glamourous, but very b/s-y. it was fun though to know that i was a part of it, and this movie brought it all back for wee while!



on saturday i went to kari's pre-wedding party. it was fun. we all met at an irish bar, so we heard some good music. talked. laughed. it was fun to get out and not think for a while.
