Baby Samson

This little guy is inevitably going to be sold and turned into hamburger. I have been occasionally bottle feeding him. His mom died, so Chris has to take care of him and I get to help. He's so stinking cute and I just love his huge big dumbo ears. It makes me sad that some over weight a**hole is going to eat my baby Samson and not think twice about it. I know he can't be kept, but I wish there was some way he could grow old and live a content, happy life like alot of other bulls do.

Throwing People Under the Bus: Part 1

"Have you ever thought about how weird it is that we lick envelopes to stick them? and that they all taste different?" - Jess

Brand New - Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face
The kind you'd find on someone that could save
If they don't put me away
Well, it'll be a miracle

Do you believe you're missing out
That everything good is happening somewhere else?
But with nobody in your bed
The night's hard to get through

And I will die all alone
And when I arrive I won't know anyone

Well Jesus Christ, I'm alone again
So what did you do those three days you were dead?
Cause this problem's gonna last more than the weekend.

Well Jesus Christ, I'm not scared to die,
I'm a little bit scared of what comes after
Do I get the gold chariot?
Do I float through the ceiling?

Do I divide and fall apart?
Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark
And the ship went down in sight of land
And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands

I know you're coming in the night like a thief
But I've had some time, O Lord, to hone my lying technique
I know you think that I'm someone you can trust
But I'm scared I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up

So do you think that we could work out a sign
So I'll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try

I know you're coming for the people like me
But we all got wood and nails
And we turn out hate in factories
We all got wood and nails
And we turn out hate in factories
We all got wood and nails
And we sleep inside of this machine


Part of believing is being tested, and still believing through it all.

To tan or not to tan? That is the question.

jess: good
did you get a tanning membership?
me: not yet
jess: are you going to?
me: eh i dont know
its kinda frivolous
jess: ya i keep going back and forth
me: i think i will just lay out
there is no sense in not using the free sun
and i dont care about being white anyway
jess: haha...the problem is that i cant lay out except on weekends and that doesnt do very much
me: ya
but why must we feel the need to be tan for crying out loud?
why are you "prettier" if you are tan?
that is bull(corn)!
jess: i totally agree...i am always thinking about that
jess: the problem is that i do feel prettier when im tan
me: so lay out when you can
jess: and i dont notice my fat as much
me: but i am not going out of my way to conform
but if it makes you feel better about yourself then do it
jess: if you are doing it to conform then dont....thats why i havent decided if i want to or not, because part of me wants to prove i can be white and still pretty
me: ya i like being out in the sun and i like being tanner
but i refuse to follow the masses and tan because it is socially accepted
thats crap
and i am not doing it
and i am not paying for it
i am blogging about this
jess: haha i know...ok you convinced me...lets put our efforts into working out and actually feeling good about ourselves so we dont have to cover it up w/ tanning
me: YESS
thank you very much
and on the weekends if we feel like it which we might we will go and lay out by the pool
like seriously a good couple hours would do
jess: yes, we can still lay out because we like it, but to pay for it is ridic!
me: so true
i am glad we decided this.
this convo is going on my blog
jess: haha ok
jess: yes, thats what i was going to say..the gym will make you live longer and the tanning bed will make you die from skin cancer
me: so true
and its so beautiful outside anyway
why not get tan and be outdoors?
why be in a tube instead
nobody stops to enjoy the outdoors anymore
theres no time, just gotta hop in fake and bake and go on
jess: haha agreed its irresposible to our bodies.
