My Bad.... :)

Okay, so I assume you read my crazed, sugar-induced rant about the weekend.... Okay, maybe it wasn't sugar induced.... It was crazy though. After re-reading it numerous times and trying to figure out what went on in my hormone-attacked brain, I have come to the conclusion that I owe the readers of this blog an explanation. Ready?

Yesterday morning, I was on my way to the laundromat with my mom at approximately 6:21 AM. My mom loves the music from The Last of the Mohicans and we were listening to it in the car. The music is very powerful (think The Phantom of the Opera) and my mom and I began talking about how white people from Europe came and took land away from people because they felt that they were entitled to it. This led to me thinking about countries where people don't have days off from work, or they don't have pensions, or even the ability to leave their homes. But here in America, all we do is complain that we don't have enough TV channels, or junk food, or gas. People in Africa don't even have water!!!

Bottom line, I was in a funk and felt like saying something about it. I still believe that the U.S. needs to work on a few (okay, many) things, but with time comes change. We just have to make sure we change before we run out of time.
