i've been raving about common's new album, "BE", and i got a question about my msn nickname (the title of this blog post) last night, and at first i just brushed it off, cuz it wasnt very inspired, i just ripped the lyrics right out from the song.
but for some reason, i thought about it again today, and i think it just may have a deeper meaning, or maybe i'm just pulling a lot of stuff out of my butt, thats for you to judge.

not that its wrong to want to be different, to continually change/evolve into a better person (its probably a good thing), but i mean if people could just BE who they are, and be accepted for it (not necessarily condoning actions or whatever). and i think a lot of times people may get caught up thinking about the past or lookin to the future, rather than realizing where they are, and all the things that are around them now.

one more random thing that may or may not have anything to do with anything, but i think i am guilty of this too, but sometimes we just get caught up in the "motions" of life as well. it especially doesnt help if you've mastered the art of "routine". but remember, we are human "BEings" not human "DOings" (quickly which simpsons episode was that from...cmon, i know you know)

cuz in the end, i think we are called to "be"...things would happen even if we weren't on earth.

fry-age
now back to my everyday ranting
i managed to spill some water on my keyboard last night. at first it seemed like no big deal. the keyboard worked fine for the rest of the night, i was still chatting away on msn and going to bed with no worry at all.
fast forward to this morning. i turn on my computer, only to find out i CANT LOG INTO WINDOWS. this started to scare the crap out of me. luckily i sat down and thought logically and tried a housemates keyboard, and everything was fine.
SO a few hours later and 20 dollars later, i'm back on my computer with a brand spanking new keyboard with those cool buttons that allow you to do stuff (way to be descriptive). you know, like change the volume or open music...

so now i have two keyboards. hmm what to do...oh i know i know! takes the broken keyboard and throws it out the living room window (just like we threw out a bat last night...yes there was a bat, go read derek's blog if you want to know more about it) and then BLOWS IT UP WITH THE ROCKET LAUNCHER to the horror of the little children playing in the playground across from our living room window. oops.
