I was checking out some posts on elizabethbanks.com and came across this post. I proceeded to watch the video, which gave me chills – in a good way.
We are voting on a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage here in my adopted home state of Minnesota. I wish I could make every voter watch this video. I will never understand why people can be filled with such hate and malice towards something as simple, pure and beautiful as love shared between two people.
Watch the video. Listen to the words. And Vote No if you’re in Minnesota.
The original High School Musical may be a few years old by now, but this is still a great campy song and dance number. If anyone wants to recreate this, give me a call!
Imma let it go!!!! Gonna leave my worries behind! Gotta take control! I just came to have a good time! Imma let it go, no time for stress on my mind! Imma lettin go!!!!!
So today was a day full of randomness. Although, who am I fooling, most of my days are full of randomness, but today just stuck out as especially random for some reason.
First, there are 21 days until election day. Thank. Cheesus. Don’t get me wrong – I do like campaigns, and the candidates I am helping this time around, but I AM OFFICIALLY OVER THIS ELECTION CYCLE. The constant barrage of ads on TV (I can’t event escape them by watching stuff on Hulu!), debates, polls, money raised, blah blah blah has just gotten to me. I blame the fact that we pretty much are in a constant state of campaigns and elections here in the US.
Guys, suggestion – how ’bout we agree to give ourselves a 3 month black out before starting any new campaigns. Seriously – no emails the day after saying “The Race for 2014 STARTS TODAY!”. Send a thank you to your volunteers and supporters and then RELAX. Read a book. Watch some movies. Eat some fresh and/or homemade food. Don’t play the could’ve, should’ve, would’ve game. You can’t go back in time, so recharge yourself, take a break and come back a few months down the road ready to do work.
Second – new MIKA album today!!! 🙂 This made me super happy and it’s been the soundtrack to my day.
Finally, my favorite TV show from the UK, Skins, released information about it’s 7th series today. *cue much rejoicing and flailing from the fandom* Happy to hear some of my favorite characters will be making appearances during the 3 “movies” that will make up the 7th and final series of the show. Here’s hoping we get some resolutions to some of the cliffhangers from the previous series and casts too.
Must return to my previously scheduled work for this evening. 21 days – let’s goooooooooooooooo!
I was going through old notes from Facebook, and found this list of 25 things about me that I originally posted in January of 2009. While a lot has changed since then, a lot really hasn’t. I guess it’s true that the more things change, the more they stay the same. 🙂
In addition to Justin Timberlake dropping the whole “I want to be an actor” routine and heading back to the studio, I hereby call for a Destiny’s Child reunion tour.
Or for two people to join me and go as Destiny’s Child for Halloween.
