Drowned Out... (11:54 A.M. CST)

Today was a very off-beat day...I can't even really explain what's been going on... So, there was a student-teacher protest organized to try and catalyze the movement of students back into the schools here. I went and said my few little words and immediately came back home. I wasn't feeling very good today, but then again, that's nothing new. I think it was how I slept...I ended up outside of the covers and the cold air rushing from the vents all night...I think that's what caused it. In any case, the clouds here have been gray lately. Seriously, almost every day for the last few days, the clouds have been completely pewter in shade. I was back home by 10:00, so...yeah. I basically sat around the house and talked to Jamille for most of my morning (she called me as soon as she woke up). About an hour ago, I started feeling worse, so I opened the front door and spent some alone time with my thoughts. After a while, it began to rain...the rain is the most beautiful spectacle to witness on this earth. I find it so serene, and I can sooner gather my thoughts and try to comprehend things that, in other situations, I probably wouldn't understand. I revel in rainfall...it's so clean, and pure, and so...symbolic. It makes me think of...attrition - being worn down by the crashing of the raindrops. But out of that grinding, friction, and abrasion, comes something so pristine and wonderful - a new shape, molded from the erosion and arising as something new and unknown. Alright, enough of my inner workings. I'm supposed to be enigmatic and mysterious >_>; Apparently, I'm failing ^^; I've been having some issues with a file I was supposed to host here for my Angel to hear. But...yeah. I've been having some file conversion issues (apparently it was saved as an .wma and not .mp3). So, in it's place, I put up something else she'd probably like - "Haruka Kanata" by Asian Kung-Fu Generation. It's a song from Naruto that she wanted to put up, so...I've figured that much out, if you're reading this, and I'll put it on your site for you whenever you're ready ^_~. Oh, by the way, I'm listening to "Where Have You Been?" by Reel Big Fish. Awesome rock/ska song. Now I'm gonna vanish...I'm still feeling a bit nauseous and I'd rather sit and listen to the rain for a bit longer. It's so much easier to do this when your family's not home ^^;. Laters, everyone. -Saint
