i'm in love...

with sufjan stevens...and you all thought this was going to be a good post : ) i've been listening to the new cd (which comes out july 5) a lot and the man is a genius....he makes me happy, he makes me see that life is good but he doesn't sugar coat it....just tells it how it is..plain and simple...he is planning on making a cd for all 50 states...which i thought at first was going to be impossible and i'm still not sure how he is going to come up with all that music, but i'm thinking if anyone can do it, he can...the one coming out in july is Illinois and he already has michigan out...he is going to do LPs for some and EPs for others...he is supposed to have an EP done for Rhode Island by the end of the year...genius i tell you....one of the songs on Illinois talks about a girl with cancer and he uses the words "cancer of the bones" i've decided i have cancer of the mind (which, btw, i do realize is not as bad as real cancer : )...but am working it out (and have decided not to mention it again to anyone : )....in another part of the song he talks about, a bible study where they prayed over her body, but nothing ever happened....that just seems so real to me...it just seems like sometimes i pray and pray and pray and nothing ever happens...pessimistic attitude i guess...but in the same sense it makes me think...oh, okay so its not just me...man, i'm being a debbie downer...sorry about that....anyway...sufjan stevens ROCKS!!! : )



if i did every thing correctly you can click on the picture and it should take you to his website : )

today has been a pretty good day...i've decided to start my summer early...i've done tons of things i like to do rather than what i should be doing...first when i got home, i started a new book, and sat outside and read for a while, thats always fun to me...i love being outside. then i walked my dog over to a friends house and we had good times talking. then i went to soccer practice, which was fun...i had band practice, where i felt like i was being a bitch...and then a soccer game, where everyone seemed to get mad at each other...but all in all, things i love : )

just a reminder....Caverns Show....May 19th (a week from thursday)....8:00....Greendoor

i better see everyone there : )

i'm done with my daily ramble...now it is time for bed...i think that can also help my cancer of the mind... : )
