Unrelated Stuff

badstar Oregon Senate passes bill to legalize same-sex civil unions.
In other news...Between yesterday and next Friday, I'm working ~24 hours of overtime.
Tonight, I'm going back to my apartment, picking up some stuff and meeting Stephanie, the third housemate. Then we're going to Mea's to have a slumber party. Woohoo!
Also...On Wednesday evening...WE'RE SIGNING THE LEASE ON THE HOUSE! (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
katskorner...you got your car money, I got the house!
That aside, damn, I really want to sleep.
My newest addiction...PODCASTS! (Anyone else with an iPod...or even just iTunes really dig these???)
So the other week, I went to a party atliritsvoice's house. I spun fire. Which is never a bad thing, always a good thing. Spun to Sunshower by Chris Cornell. I need to spin to more slow stuff. Before the party, I attended Cedarlight's Summer Solstice ritual. Which was also all kinds of fun. Some of us painted our faces, silly songs were sung, the Chocolate Ritual was performed, and the oracle was "read" with chocolate chip cookies (Anyone ever think of using those as a method of divination?) It was quite a night.
I started reading Brian Greene's The Elegant Universe again last night. I put it down somewhere in the middle a while back and finally picked it back up. Mindbending stuff, yo. I know it's barely the most rudimentary basics that I'm getting, but string theory is absolutely fascinating stuff. If I had any mathematical ability, I'd go to school, study physics and unravel the mysteries of the universe...
...and I leave you with some song lyrics...
"You Create The Reason" by Carl Stephnson
How many people really know what
they're talking about
or if what they're saying is true
All I know is what I observe
All the rest is created by mind
It seems there is something
rather than nothing
Non-existence does not exist
I'm trying to explain the essence of being
to get a realization of what I consist
You may think it absurd to make a
theory of reality
when reality is relative
to the mind that occurs
but since the mind that occurs is of the
same species
the genus homo
then I'm talking to you
There's an infinite parallel theory that
the universe splits
into innumerable copies of itself at
every moment
There's a superstring theory that there
are ten dimensions
six of which are so small we never see
It's possible that everything that exists
equals nothing
It just popped into existence through a
quantum fluctuation
and I think it's important that you
consider the fact
that the mind may be a mathematical
abstract
