waiting to sleep

Quote of the day: "I just say out loud the things that other people are thinking." -me

can anybody tell me why the entire congress gave Bush standing ovations for everything he said during his LAST (yay!) state of the union address?? seriously? because unless they heard something I didn't, there was no need for applause, unless they are as happy as i am that he is almost out of office... It wasn't even a good show, I wouldn't see it again...

Yesterday I made a list of (so far) 24 countries that I would like to visit. I'll attach that list later, you'll see it, but off the top of my head:

Bali, Tibet, Australia, Costa Rica, Estonia...

I figure I should do at least one country a year. Does anyone want to join me? Any ideas?

FYI- i love my horoscope this week- FreeWillAstrology.com 

resolution

We are just less than a month into '08 and recently I realized what I wanted my resolution to be: I am going to be more affectionate with the people that I care about. I'm certain that this makes sense to those of you who know me well. Its been a joke and its been a bother-- but I'm fixing it.

Also, I would like to call attention to the power of positive thinking-

Cynicism is running rampant and every time we allow ourselves to behave forlornly, we allow the energy of the world to continue in a destructive manner. - seek out the good. Search for Good News if you are overwhelmed by the misgivings of the world, there really is plenty of positive things happening. Good News Network is one site you can check.  

Furthermore- we are indeed at a pivotal time, make the change  you wish to see. Respect each other, and the lives you wish to live will become the lives you live.
