equals blurred thoughts. cant seem to get my head on straight recently. to much on my mind. to many questions that wont be answered. but then again maybe they aren't supposed to be answered. maybe this is part of the plan. to leave me thinking and by thinking i will discover what i was meant to know. or i could just be going insane without a probable cause.

this week has been fast and it's been slow. lots of emtions getting thrown around and different times around the corner. some factors of life that are angering me right now are [distance and time] and also a state law.
weird how those litte things are just toying with me. just stupid hurdles life throws at you when your running a blind race. i mean dont get me wrong because they aren't going to stop me. i just need to adjust. just like on a bike. little adjustments here and there make the thing run smooth and happy.
your body may be a temple...but mines a bike, and im going to make it the smoothest and happiest bike around. filled with rides around the green medows of inner city lights, rides to obtain hunger satisfiers, and rides with best friends whom make me a complete bike.

its weird how the body is able to recognize where you are. you can feel the world around you. the body can go into a state of being at rest even when you are completely active. comfort surrounds you like the blanket of your child hood. things were as if you never left but you've been gone for so long. things change physically but mentally they're like they were.

came out alive........ in a time of ghost hauntings being at their worst. my companion and i were able to triumph through the worst of the worst and the coldest of the colds and come out with pictures that will blow the lid off of your trash cans set out on the street. for days to come you will have the pleasure of seeing photos that people didn't know existed. in some cases you might even see a ghost or two. only people who really believe in believing will believe what is to believe.

leaving tomorrow for my trip. i will be visiting ghosts in their natural environment. some say they are friendly ie. Casper the friendly ghost. and some are violent ie. the headless horse man. i will soon venture past the boundries of the known and into the depths of what shouldn't be known. if i come out alive my blog will be a wonderus place of emotion and excitment of the truth. if i do not come back alive then i will be giving my porn collection to the highest bider as a fund for my costly funeral....it will be a circus theme/freak show.
