We dream of stars with points and purpose

We dream of stars with points and purpose but the reality is nothing more than consolidated minerals and gas. Still and all, I prefer to think of stars as poetry. I guess maybe that's why I prefer to see modern politicians as human. In some instances, as with George Bush, the reality is far too blatant to ignore.

He opposes everything I am for and is against everything I embrace. It's that kind of truculent, bitch-slapping nihilist that triggers revolution. I wasn't at all surprised to hear of the new t-shirt cropping up on Obama supporters in Philadelphia -- it says "Philadelphia Freedom 2009". A-fuckin'-men, brothers and sisters. However, I'm really way past the top of the hour when it comes to this primary.

In the words of Goethe --

Der Worte sind genug gewechselt, lasst mich auch endlich Taten sehn
! Now I don't know what the hell that means since I don't read a word of German, but Babblefugue mangles it into:
Enough words have been exchanged; now at last let me see some deeds!

Melody, I need some advise. I went to my friends page and expected to find you and hilsongirl. You guys are my 2 friends. Friended me amd I friended back, right? Who are these other people? A couple are some of my favorite authors, but the rest? aren't they supposed to ask? I probably screwed up,... again?

No, you didn't screw up. You don't really have to ask. I friend all the time without asking (I'm a bad girl that way lol) but you don't have to friend back if they don't ask ... that's the way it's done. All "friending" someone means is you get their blog on your Friend Page every time its updated.

Why would they want to read my blog? I mean, you've seen it, why do these people want to invade me? Am I overreacting? Probably. Nevermind.

Well, if you don't want to be friended, just state that in your bio. Most people consider it a good thing.

You're just a sensitive soul, my friend. As am I. Most fans are.

Don't worry -- they probably just liked your comments and want to read your blog.
