I try and not do any emo blogging on here ... so...
The last week or so has not been easy at all. Sort of seen myself at moments I’m tagging as “Not My Finest”.
Thankfully - pardon the pun - Thanksgiving was good to me. Never forgetting that.
But aside from that I’ve had a hard time keeping a smile on my face. My uncle’s been back in the hospital. Same problems as why he was there before. I’ve visited him...

What happened to being thankful for what we have?
So we spend a day being thankful for what we have, just to wake up at the crack of dawn to rush out in packs of ruthless consuming SPEND SPEND SPEND robots? That must the fastest way to lose sight of a lesson learned. Ever. Or at least since we threw post 9-11 unity out the window in exchange for xenophobia.

March 19, 2011, an article entitled: “Another Netflix Content Idea: Saving Cancelled Cult Hits”:

Democrats.org have written the perfect petition in response to Congress’s push against healthier school lunches.
Sign if you care about vegetables, pizza, or public school students (you’re lying if you say you don’t care about pizza).
I like Pizza, but god damn is it not a veggie.

I've started to use a calendar more than I used...
And maybe I’ve been making better plans for myself, or having more interesting things go on, but I really like how this decision is going.
Or maybe I’m just getting old and senile and need ways to remember what I’ve done and am going to do.

A fair warning about iTunes Match
If you’re considering it, and have a sizable library (15,000 songs perhaps), expect it to take a long time, probably 4-5 days, for the initial sync. Wait to enable it on your device until that’s all done, when you have some spare time to download all the music onto your iPhone over iTunes Match over Wifi, because the service clears the music off of your iPhone or iPad.
