Today is one of those many nights, where I find I either have trouble getting to sleep, or cannot even sleep at all. Tossing, turning, nightmares, you name it. Sometimes, I feel hella tired during the day.
I have to wake up at around 9a/est. My sister will be coming over so we can take a trip to the store. One which is way out from the sticks we live in now. Heh...the sticks. That sounds hilarious. Being a BIG city girl and all. This is way different from what I am used to. And I miss the city. I miss my friends in the city. St. Louis is huge. And here I am in a small town, where you may as well be Norm from Cheers, everybody knows not only your name...but damn near everything they can get their ears on about you. I am not liking that so much. But oh well. As little as you allow them to know, the better. That way, if the cackling Hens wanna gossip, they will be making shit up. Which will make them look like old head asses in the end.
However, on a good note, so far, we've not met anyone with such a rep as we've been told the majority here have in that regard. Unless they are backstabbing and two-faced. We've not really had any problems. A lot of people here are real nice. Even some of the older people that have probably lived here all of their lives. So polite!
I think my problem here as far as sleep is concerned, is the fact that there are no planes constantly roaring over the houses, or Airforce Jets doing their daily flight formation training. No Spanish neighbors playing their crazy weird music that sounds the same all the time (almost the way techno can be). All there is now, peace, quiet, Bats and Bobcats. I may never get to hear gun shots on New Years Eve again, or fireworks on Mardis Gras. People here do not seem to even celebrate it, let alone know what Mardis Gras really is! God I may need to set a trend or something here. If they can have Christmas parades, and Football parades in the town square, then they can have some fun, and give eachother beads, party and have fun one weekend annually. Then again, the old fashioned may have issues with that too. *rolls eyes* geesh. What good is living if you cannot have some fun while you're living...here...on this rock.
Another issue as of late, the social unrest that has progressed in the worst way over in Egypt. That bothers me. It even kinda hurt to hear a man tell a reporter how they hated Americans because they feel we are not on their side. To be honest, I take no sides. But I am only one person out of billions. But I do know there are many who feel the same over here that I do. But will the damn media ever let them over in the Middle East know the whole truth? Hell no. That's all the media is good for anymore. Causing shit with many people all over, just to get their falsified stories they've trumped up to make things either look good for them, and bad for the little people. Screw the media! They're just as bad as the Papparazi as it is anymore!! And as my kids would say...they fail!
I just hope things get better over there. Not just for the rest of us that would essentially be affected as well, but for the people over there. I hope it turns out ok for all of them, and stays in the positive. Because whatever their actual underlying beef is with Mubarak (the TRUTH that is), they must have a good reason to feel the way they do. In all truth, either side may very well have their own individual heartfelt reasons for feeling the way that they do. however, I am not sorry to say I really hope none of the Islamic Brotherhood takes Mubarak's place. That would not be good for a lot of us, believe you me.
One thing that keeps nagging my mind is one simple question to ponder..."Why are "they" hell bent on causing things to happen in order to make Prophesies happen?"
Have a good night/day...wherever you reside. And be safe wherever you are.
Peace!
