forsythI'm in a thoughtful mood tonight. I dunno quite why.
Besides the regular anger and sheer disbelief that some of the people in this Administration are still allowed anywhere NEAR power, especially ones who were, y'know, CONVICTED OF CRIMES.
Sorry. Anyway.
It's been close to a year now since the last time I saw her. I still miss her, I doubt it's ever gonna go away. Sometimes think I'm over things, then a breeze, or a song, or a thought, or almost anything brings it back. I really don't know what to say.
Do I have a point? Probably not. But I'm just babbling, which is really the point of an LJ, letting all the little bits dribble out so they don't puddle around and stain the floor.
I've been thinking. I think I want to be a journalist now. But I want to get at more than just the random bullshit most of the journalists now do, most of the media's REALLY gone downhill since Watergate. Or maybe Watergate set up a standard higher than the media usually holds to, which could be the case.
Any kind of questing for truth is dangerous. It basically involves throwing your mind out into the Universe, then hauling it back and sorting out what you found. Not literally, of course. But think about it, scientists, writers, mystics, they're all expected to be a little bit eccentric, because they're often poking about in the hidden recesses of the human mind, the dark dusty corners of the universe, trying to wrap their heads around things most people don't even think about.
Please leave your message after the beep. Beep beep beep.
