Life Deforming: Bliss and Fear

Bliss and Fear

I really wish I could've snapped a picture of what I'm about to describe for you... We got a pretty big sectional couch for our house, so Lace and I have plenty of room to stretch out and our little petting zoo can join us, too. But if we're just watching TV or one of us is playing a game or whatever, we usually snuggle together.

We were watching the Glory Kickboxing show that was on last night and I was stretched out lying on the couch and Lacey was laying on me, which is a pretty typical position we use. She fell asleep on me with her Grumpy Bunny under her arm. It was just very warming and sweet to me. :3 I love being snuggled by her and knowing that I make her feel safe. I know I've said it a million times, but my life feels complete. She completes me. It's bliss. :3

Buuuuut...

If you haven't heard, Tropical Storm Ana is heading towards the Carolinas. My little boy is in North Carolina, but I'm not sure where. I'm so worried that he's near the coast and that something will happen. I know it's not a seriously strong storm, but any tropical storm is dangerous and the ones we had while in New Hampshire terrified him... Rob is a pig and a scumbag to me, but he is a great dad to our son. I hope that hasn't changed and he keeps my baby safe...

Mad As Hell

I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's worth; banks are going bust; shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter; punks are running wild in the street, and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat. And we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be! We all know things are bad -- worse than bad -- they're crazy. It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out any more. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we're living in is getting smaller, and all we say is, "Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials, and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone." Well, I'm not going to leave you alone. I want you to get mad! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot. I don't want you to write to your Congressman, because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first, you've got to get mad. You've gotta say, "I'm a human being, goddammit! My life has value!" So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window, open it, and stick your head out and yell, "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!!" - Howard Beale "Network"
