...and so begins my new project: blogging at least once a week.

So, I have a theory, and it goes a little something like companies put crack in food so people will get addicted to said food and said company will make a shit ton of money and whatnot. I now believe this is also true about gourmet coffee. I ran out of free half-pounds at Caribou, so I bought some Folgers shit..whatever because I'm cheap and didn't want to spring for the Starbucks kind at Walmart. ANYWAY I made a pot of it this morning.....it was awful. Like...really awful. Clearly, I've been coked out and decieved by gourmet coffee companies. Goddamnit.

In other more serious news: anyone reading this probably knows that I'm very fond of being in the loop. I like knowing what's going on...being a part of the 'in' crowd...you know...that kind of thing. But I'm in a situation where I almost feel like I know too much. Knowledge can be a burden I guess, but disappointment is a bigger one.

I just don't understand why it's so hard for people to just do the right thing. Yeah, sometimes that's a blurry line, but a lot of times there is a very clear right choice, and very clear obvious and undesireable consequences for making the wrong choice...but people do it anyway. And then (I'm not emo, let me be clear, but Dashboard Confessional sums this up perfectly):
"How can you ask for forgiveness? Now you think your crimes are victimless..."

Ugh. Prayers...positive energy...happy thoughts for Winterset tonight. Enjoy the fireworks.
