Now I rarely go to Sam Goody's for anything... CD's are cheaper at Wal-Mart, as are DVD's and videos... but they used to have sheet music there and that was the one thing that I was interested in... so basically that was a pointless stop. Pointless stops are stupid. I went to the DVD section just to browse for a while, I was bored. Found the section with musicals, started looking through titles, then moved over to the next column on the right to continue browsing through the musical titles. I flipped a little black plastic divider that covered the first DVD... big mistake. Looked up at the header for the section, was no longer "musicals" was rather "mature". OOOOOOO-K. What a joke. Trying to protect the eyes of children by covering that (insert preferred equivalent of "trash" here) with a little piece of plastic that a 3-year-old could have moved. I mean honestly... if you want to protect the kids from that trash, lock the DVD's in a case that they can't get to. I mean it's not like you have to read the blurb on the back of the case or anything to know what's in it. Besides, this whole thing is totally clouding the issue here... if the movie sections were in alphabetical order, shouldn't the musicals have been to the right of the "mature" section?

I started the musings section a few days ago, at the insistence of a friend. Of course, the second I have my little open forum, I can think of absolutely nothing to muse about. Go figure. I leave for school in a little over a week and my father is about to go LOONEY.
So what to ramble about? I had a nice little couple of paragraphs about love but they started to sound like I'm lonely... and I'm not! My Lord is all I want right now. Now if my brain would only tell my heart that... hehehehe I may think that I want what I believe is "more," but what He provides completely satisfies my every need.
The whole topic came up because I was just thinking about my friends who have gotten married/engaged or will get married. Amie, then Emily (who I used to play Barbies with, btw), Ruth is getting married in November, and Julie will be married sometime before long. There's a lot of that love stuff around, and it really seems to be catching, sometimes it's hard to be content with just being me and God. Oh well. I can safely guarantee that I will not be married for at least four years... it is a self-imposed rule that I will finish college before anything happens in that area... so no one needs to start saving for plane tickets for my wedding yet. ;-) *sigh* Maybe I'll just simplify everything and vow to die an old maid.
