One Euro??
I’m not going to say some of the things I want to say because this is a public log. Then again, withholding things would be me putting myself under the illusion that people actually read this! I realized today that when you are ugly on the outside, you have to do your best to be beautiful on the inside. ‘Cause let’s face it, that’s all ya got. Am I saying beautiful people can afford to act like jerks and get away with it? I’m not saying they can, i’m saying they do.
Figured out “Music of the Night” from Phantom of the Opera on piano - sounds surprisingly good. Except I am missing half of the song because I haven’t heard it in so long. I better listen to it and figure out the rest. In other music, I was listening to track 9 of the Will I maxi-single by Ian Van Dahl on the Column II’s and I almost fell out of my seat. It sounded amazingly buttery. I don’t know if you have all found that activity that gives you pleasure, makes you happy, no matter what. I am blessed that this is one of the things I can do that will always make me feel better … no matter what. It’s a wonderful security blanket.

So get this; 23 fighter jets sold for 1 Euro. Sure, they’re outdated, but ONE EURO?. I guess its “symbolic” but honestly. Those airplanes could be scrapped and the parts sold for thousands of dollars. Maybe it was a diplomatic gesture? Either way, they should’ve sold them on eBay - they would have made a pretty penny there.
On a more somber note, my English professor suffered a bad, bad fall down a staircase this past weekend. He completely shattered his right forearm and had surgery earlier today to put pins and plates into his arm to keep everything in place. He plans to only be gone for this week and he will definitely be missed. Please join me in praying for his speedy and complete recovery.
Finally, Matthew sent me one of the best e-mails I have received from anyone anywhere in a long time. He’s an awesome kid and is going far. I need to get his autograph so I can sell it on eBay when he is uber famous.
