I'm not sure how I feel about this

simplyslyFirstly, I just wanted to say thank you for all the kind wishes you gave me last week. Perhaps understandably, I haven't felt much like writing this past week, but I do have some ideas which will shortly find their way onto the computer (as opposed to paper, as happened earlier, only to be taken, hidden, and torn to shreds by tiny kitten, as happened to an early draft of Mac's X-mas tree part 2).
I saw Finding Neverland for the first time last night. I almost broke down into tears a couple of times, but especially with the Tinkerbell scene. Luckily, I was watching it with one of my roommates, and they had enough tacklessness not to notice, and then crack a joke just when I needed it. It was a bad joke, in terrible taste, but seemed so much more amusing at the time.
I've been poking around online today, and a routine stop at the New York Times revealed something interesting. One of their articles today, A Kiss Too Far?, has stirred up mixed feelings in me. For those that don't want to actually read it, it's an article dealing with people's reaction to PDA by same-sex couples. I like that someone actually noticed and wrote an article about it, bringing it more to the front of the public's view. I like how they interviewed several openly out people from various parts of the country, and I like how they didn't try to say that there was an easy solution. The title for this entry comes in as I'm not sure how I feel about this being run in the Fashion and Styles section, like some other reader's have been about similar articles.
The editor makes a point to mention that Style is not just about clothing, but also how we live our lives. Admittedly, I'm not sure where else this article would fit, other than the U.S. section. Still, on a whole, I try to steer away from Fashion, scared of their too thin models and over priced clothing that I generally don't like. Between this and Ugly Betty, I might actually have to give up my hatred and actually buy something with color.
Naw, I'm not that far gone yet.
Hey! Have music!
On The Rocks: Romeo & Juliet and Yellow
Eisley: Memories
Enjoy!
