Frame 2

Today I finished a great book called Everyday Matters. It is a memoir of a man who lives in New York and one day his wife is waiting for the subway and slips and falls on the tracks only to be run over by the number 9 subway car as it enters the depot. She is then paralyzed from the waist down. The man then decides to start drawing and becomes an excellent artist. It is a great animated memoir of his observations and how his outlook on life has changed as well as his families. This short book shows the strength of family. No matter what life throws at you, you have to cope with it.

Today I talked to both my mother and my father and they are in different cities tonight but still share the same heart. It was nice to talk to them. Sometimes we fight sometimes we don't, but the one thing you have to remember is that it's family. Somewhere deep down you know through all of the arguments and issues that come up that there is that bond that makes you stronger than anything else can.

I watched Back to the Future parts I, II, and III tonight because it was on television. Then I watched Part II again because I never pay attention to that one for some reason. I have come to realize that there are so many holes in the Back to the Future movies but I cant go into them all in detail. For one, in Part III when Marty travels back to the wild west, would all of his ancestors look like him and his mother? That really does not make any sense. I understand they want them played by the same characters but its completely illogical. If I went back to my great great grandfather, it would probably be some Indian. Part III is starting again so I am going to try to find more holes in it. I will keep you updated.

I am excited about the music I am listening to as of late. I feel my musical taste has really matured and I have entered the "college music phase". I say this because all of my parents and their friends listen to the music they listened to in college now. I can defiantly see that happening to me. Nothing like growing into some alt-country. As my taste progresses in music so does Alison's taste. I think no matter where we are and if we have contact we will always share the same musical taste. This is great. I can tell exactly what type of person someone is just by looking at their playlist. It sounds stupid but I think Alison would agree with me on that point. I have many concerts coming up too. Some she will be at some she wont. I am not used to going to concerts without her and frankly they are never the same when she is not there. So I think tonight I will invite her to the Cold War Kids show thats coming up in Madison.

Well Back to the Future Part III is starting now so I best be on my way.
