the Wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa-la-la's

I just wish he had said a little more than ooh's and ah's and Obama and fa-la-la's. If only he had backed his choice up, every time he dropped the name ' Obama'.

I suppose I'm just a little disappointed by the first blog and the reply in the second blog. He didn't seem sorry for the way he handled it. That seemed incredibly hypocritical, since he's the one preaching 'peace', ' respect' and joy. For me it was hard to find that peace, respect and joy and whatever other positive thing he might have preached.

It's funny to read how his army accuses people of accusing him of things, because he's a celeb. It's funny that when one man is incredibly rude, and happens to be a celeb, he's not expected to aplologize for it, while any other person would get bashed till the apologies are out.

I don't expect Jason to be perfect, but I do expect him to be big enough to admit he made a (judgement) mistake, or that it was really stupid and rude what he did.

I suppose I'm just really disappointed, while I never expected him to be perfect. Especially since I belief he can do so much better.

Time's been crazy these days

I tried to stay out of the wind, but I can never hang on too long. I like the occasional breeze to blow me through, but the storms often get the best of me.
The last days been marked by Jason's blogs. He sure knows how to turn on the heat, in a positive and in a negative way. It's weird to see how quick winds can change direction and destroy on its way.

I've been shaken by it all, because I care.

I want to say one or two things. Mainly, I just want to try to keep my blog alive. Here are the things that kept my mind occupied the last few months:
  • Jason Mraz
  • My work
  • my boyfriend
  • my mom
In that order.

Not really too big things.
  • Jason's world only touches me when I'm listening his music and read his blogs. Sometimes I care too much than necessary, and sometimes I don't care at all. Fact is that I've been wanting to hit him a lot, lately.
  • I care about my work since that is how I make my living and I'd rather walk away leaving people behind being sorry I'm leaving. It's been busy and a lot. I made some errors and tried to correct them as much as possible. I've been wanting to hit people a lot.
  • My boyfriend I see every day and since we're building a relationship together, I care a lot. He's been catching the hits, and he's good at it.
  • My mom. I talked to her on the phone yesterday and it amuses me how busy she's been since she got a new man in her life. I'm happy for her. Since I left my mom's house, I've been wanting to hit her way less. That's a good thing. We're on great terms btw.

I like to add my dad. My dad died about 7,5 years ago. I dreamt about him and that was really nice. A few days ago, I had the feeling he was in a good place. Somehow that made me happy, eventho I couldn't call a time or place for where he was.
