sister confusion, general disclaimer, Lincoln

i've been dreaming a ton recently. there was a really weird one two nights ago, more because of what i thought about the dream. See, in the dream, i had a little sister. (we were hospitalised together for an eating disorder or something, which was confusing, because they wouldnt feed us at the hospital. reverse psychology?) anyway, the sister looked like what i thought Julia Q's sister looks like (does she even have a sister?) then when i'm thinking about my dream when i wake up, i realize she was really Towanda's sister- barely. she was different too. and now i'm confused.

and now for the GENERAL DISCLAIMER: I'm not saying i'm way crazier than everyone else here (tho its possible) but i do definately get weird at times. i get weird apoligizing for when i was weird, because i'm still in a weird mood. like now, for example. except i'm not apoligizing, i'm saying you shouldnt take what i say too seriously- it doesnt always last, and even when it does, it doest make anyone better for you, dear reader lol, to think about it. so, here's a pretry jar of green salt to use whenever you need to take what i say with a grain of salt.



Lincoln! I'm cleaning my room, which is REALLY weird, but we're not talking about that. we're talking about the article i found about Lincoln i had clipped from a magazine a while ago. it's about his depression, and it's really cool. i would quote it, but i would end up quoting the whole 9 or so pages. so i'm going to Google part of the poem he recites.

Yea! Hope and despondency, pleasure and pain,
Are mingled together in sun-shine and rain;
And the smile and the tear, and the song and the dirge,
Still follow each other, like surge upon surge.

'Tis the wink of an eye, 'tis the draught of a breath,
From the blossoms of health, to the paleness of death.
From the gilded saloon, to the bier and the shroud
Oh, why should the spirit of mortal be proud!


how cheerful! but it really is cool how Lincoln's meloncholy made him a better president. there's your random tidbits for the day...
