4th of July
And then there were none.
No filler seats
or candied saddles.
No screaming serenades
by the tilted carousel.
No small painted faces
in white, red, and blue.
No starlit nights.
No country pride.
Just an ebony sky
beneath a local fair.
That site of laughter
devoid of it now.
Huddled in corners
hidden from the sun.
Free voices stifled
by a silent war cry
starting from the east
smothering the west
from a same centerpiece.
What once was theirs,
soon will be none
on this fourth of July.

This is my sad attempt at a blackglass challenge. I'm going to hate it tomorrow. Just wait and see. Gah, I'm tempted to already take it down.

UGH!! The WB is showing a Spur's basketball game right now, so I won't get to see Angel till later tonight. It's just not fair!!!!!!!

In other news the RIAA is crying foul. Seems their website was hacked again in protest of their bullying behavior towards consumers. Their free speech rights are being curtailed, so they say. Really? This coming from the same group that has stifled free speech with the DMCA.

Neil Gaiman is my hero. At least his imagination is according to his recent journal entry on Bush and Saddam. hehe

DH has a link to spoilers for Angel. They're season finale spoilers including the origin of The Beast, and I DIDN'T LOOK!!!!!!!!! ::twitch::

This is what I hate: watching a show that oozes potential, has some stunning visuals, and the story is actually freaky and good. Why do I hate it? Chances are it could get canceled, but then again the numbers aren't in.
Twenty minutes into Miracles and I'm loving it.

There's an SBA meeting on Thursday. Just great. Law school is beginning to own me again this semester. Next week I have mock trial, and the week after that I may still have mock and SBA. Why do I get myself involved in these things?
I mean I am looking foward to mock trial, but SBA has been such a disappointment. I should have listened to my friends when they said it would just be about parties. All talk and no action. We say we're going to defend the students when it comes to the administration, but the President is more about appeasing them rather than standing up to them. It's just frustrating.

Is Ches back? I still have her bookmarked, and I visited her site today. To my surprise there was a new site design. I hope she's doing well. I've missed her.

My thief didn't like the graphic I made to replace the one she was stealing. It took less than an hour after I replaced the image to remove it. I'm amused. Serves her right.
It's been an interesting day. L. and I went to the mall today, which wasn't the best day since it's been ugly as hell due to the weather. We did spend money, and I didn't get Chicago to my ultimate disappointment. I did buy three dvds and a bracelet.
dvds:
-The Bourne Identity
-About a Boy (I love this movie)
-The Vision of Escaflowne Movie
cd:
- Serial Experiments Lain soundtrack (The owner even gave me a discount on this one)
I'm now officially broke, but I may still order Chicago online because I really want the cd. It's a must have type of thing.
We ran into J. and we chatted for a while. On the spur of the moment I asked him if he wanted to partner up for mock trial, and he said yes, so I get to compete in mock trial next week. Of course L. took all the people I wanted to use as witnesses, which puts us at a slight disadvantage, but this can be remedied. My goal is to either break, or get first speaker in one of the rounds. Actually I want both.
Katie is trying to convince me to try out for Valentine's Cabaret. I'm interested, and I'm going to sing Angel by Sarah McLachlin, but what if I sound awful. I don't know if I'm going to try out, though it would be fun.
Right now we're exchanging cds. She brought her Tori Amos cds, and I had no idea her earlier stuff was so good. Needless to say I feel like I've walked into a candy store with a $100 gift certificate. Trent Reznor even sings backup on one of the songs. I am very much amused, and this is a good thing.

I have a thief. http://www.livejournal.com/users/scar_me/
That's a wallpaper I made for blackglass, which she is using for a background. It just bugs me. She could have at least given me credit for it, but then again a thief is a thief, and that's my graphic. That and she's stealing my bandwidth too, and that's just a big no-no.
I'll probably rename the image and replace the one she has with a really nasty graphic.
God, I'm brain dead today.
