| almost two years????XANGA IS BACK!!! time for deep thougths with Lia Bia... So... the other day I renewed my subscription to Runner's World via snail-mail. It had this nice little enticement that noted, "YOU WILL RECIEVE A GIFT IF YOU RENEW NOW!". So, naturally, I did. When I received my gift (which wasn't even the gift promised in the promotion, mind you...), it had a queer title that has provoked todays deep thoughts... here is what the package read... "Here is your FREE GIFT!!!" Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't all gifts free?If the gift wasn't free, then it's not a gift! I'm just saying... it is a not-so-beautiful let down to be reassured that my gift that I was just given is, in fact, free. If I was a 5th grader, I would write a letter to Runner's World that had the three letters D-U-H in bold Times New Roman, font size 72. (and maybe even draw a hand in the shape of an L for loser underneath the "duh"). Moral of the story: don't give free gifts... just keep them to yourselves. |

| i am a true friday night fight junkie. i don't think i've voted once... (because the voting is really wierd) but as far as trash talking... i'm there. i think that they should def do some broadcasting, or at least create some sort of comic book relief. i might get on that... anyways, FNF... i want a t-shirt. holla. |

| a little seriousness...
sometimes people like to get real honest, today is one of those. i tell you what, friends... change is not the easiest thing to do when it's implicated by you... and not just done without notice. for example, gaining weight is realy easy and pretty much done without any red lights flashing... but losing it!!! dang gina... that'll take a while and be a conscious effort made.
it's the same thing with who you are and how you want to be percieved. who you are changes without notice when you adapt to new people. getting back to the person that you are when no one else is around is sometimes a struggle, especially when you must meet expectations of others... but that's all that those things are... expectations of OTHERS.
man, right now.... i just wanna stay true to the God and people that will always be there for me, to the girls that will one day be my bridesmaids (if that day will ever come!), to my momma daddy mamaw papaw sisters bro-in-laws and BRAND NEW NIECE baby j, and second to most of all.... myself. that's like whoa... people who've done it are noticed for that feat. that's where i want to be... noticed only because of my passion for God and the way HE made me... not the person i'm expected to be.
feels good to get this out... thanks. |
