today_when_the_war_began sylphide *tremble* 030319 ... sylphide I turned on my television to see Bush declaring war. I despise the media, yet we rely on it for so much. The disarmament has begun... 030319 ... dB as Adam Duritz said at the start of This Desert Life: "here we go!". You can't trust the media now, even CNN. then again, nobody else is on the ground there so no other information is available. Saddams address to the nation starts in a few minutes. It'll be interesting to see what he says after the first wave. 030319 ... IKC 56-80 I though, "wow, bush and saddam are both serious dickheads" then i looked around and thought that as much as i hate the idea, i'd go if they sent me. it's almost time for me to fill out that Selective Service card since number 18 is on it's way. i know it's probably naîve of me, but even for the dangers and the shady politics of it all, it seems like it could be interesting 030319 ... sweetheart of the song tra bong It is obviously time to start sticking boots in other people's asses.

I finally got home from a road trip. All the reality of the world hit me like a ton of bricks. My ex who is still a good friend was in Kuwait and probably now in conflict somewhere. His picture was in the paper. It showed him sleeping with some of his fellow Marines....clutching thier machine guns. I started to cry. I don't want him hurt, psychologically messed up, or killed for Bush's ideology. I want him to live. My autistic brother was tugging at my shirt. I kept pushing him away. Can't you see I'm crying?

It gave me hope. Things may just turn out all right. 030320 ... minnesota_chris that's awesome... your brother rocks! 030320 ... wish~ a book by John Marsden. 030321 ... sylphide things_could_be_worse 030321 what's it to you? who go blather from
