I am just having terrible luck lately with this blog thing. Earlier today I wrote an extremely long entry about my day, and some of my thoughts, and my dad was working on my computer and exited out of the internet, and I never saved it. I won't let that happen again.
Well today, I've been listening to Madonna's new CD Hard Candy, which I got yesterday, but I have been listening to it a lot today. I absolutely love it. I love the songs Incredible, Miles Away, and Devil Wouldn't Recognize You. All the songs are good, but those are my absolute favorites. If you don't have the album yet go out and get it. Right now... get off the computer and to Target. Just kidding... but seriously :)
Just watched American Idol, and I'm kind of bummed out that Brooke is gone, but I'm definately not suprised. I think that next week Syesha will leave, and the week after that it will be Jason. The final 2 will definately be the David's. My friends and I made bets about who we thought would get voted off. I bet on Syesha, Rachel bet on Jason, and Cody bet on Brooke... he wins! We only bet a dollar though so it won't completely kill my wallet.
Anyways, earlier today my younger sister gave me an interesting thought. She wanted to show me something that she could do outside and she was very excited about it. Essentially what she did was run from one end of the backyard to the trapese on the small playground we have and swung on it. Then, for the grand finale she jumped off! Now I found that a very large waste of my time. My sister on the other hand was quite thrilled by her accomplishment. So I thought that maybe we would all be better off if we were thrilled by small things. Maybe if everyone got excited just by jumping off a swing the people would be happy because we wouldn't seek for so much and then be unsatisfied with what we have now. Perhaps if we were pleased with the trees and our ability to love the world could live in peace. Just a thought.
Well, I think that's enough for tonight. I need to read In Cold Blood for my project.
Good night, I'll be back tomorrow
Happy Birthday Kirsten Dunst :)

Wow- you are an insightful young woman. You are so right- it is the small things. Eckhart Tolle said about his book: he didn't set off to do something great- he just did small steps. Our greatness begins with small little steps, and like your sister we need to be happy with those.
Also, blogger automatically saves your posts- if you go into edit posts the post you think you lost might be there.
