The vibe and energy of a summer night is unmatched by anything else. And even, like myself, you choose to take that night slowly, the feelings are all still there. The mosquitoes, and crickets, and sound of the little creek was out tonight. And although all that stuff is probably there every night, it felt particularly awesome and beautiful this night. And when will I ever call mosquitoes a beautiful thing? Probably never ever again.
There are two things I have always wanted to do here in the US. Why I haven't done them yet is annoying, so maybe this year will be the year. And really, I would like for this during one swoop of a long US road trip, but anyway, I would love to spend some of the fall on the east coast. Specifically New England. And I would love to spend some of the summer in the south. I have never really spent any time in the south, and when better to experience it than in the summer? Maybe it's this weird fascination of the American Dream in me, but what is more American besides baseball than a summer in the south? And really, to combine both of those would be awesome. ... My brothers always played little league. So, every single spring and summer was filled with Saturday's at the fields cheering them on. I don't know if this is why, but also, for as long as I remember, I have always loved watching the little league world series. I think it's something about these young athletes, playing a game they love, with their entire world ahead of them. And as a kid, what would be better than playing in the LLWS? It must be magical. Anyway, they are held in Pennsylvania every August (I think august). Maybe Ill take a little road trip this year. .. Let's face it, I know I wont. But I would love to....
And, in other news regarding America. Apparently it's just not marriage unless one party has a penis, and one party has a vagina. And apparently marriage also means that as long as both parties are of different genders, it doesn't matter how many times they get married, or divorced, than married again, because that is what real, true, blessed love is.... And this was made apparent by the ruling today by the California Supreme Court. Upholding the voter approved ban of same sex marriage. In light of this I thought I would share a little gay love. Below is a little snippet of LA Pride 08, cut to Mika's Love Today. Enjoy.
