My head has been going 100 mph tonight. About a whole plethera of things....
First off....Casey Anthony. Who hasnt been thinking about this trial? So I'll put in my two cents and be done with it forever. Homegirl did it and got off scotch free. Who lies about their kid missing? Who doesnt report something like that in a MONTH? And if Caylee did fall in the pool and it was an accident, why wasn't it reported? I mean....did she think that everyone wouldn't notice that she didn't have the little girl with her anymore? And homegirl only got upset when it was her butt on the line and the trial was focused on her, not when they talked about Caylee and her death, etc.....And yes, all the evidence was circumstancial, but..pretty convincing....however, the jury made the decision based on fact. The prosecution failed to give hard evidence. Epic fail, again, Florida. And so Casey Anthony could confess tomorrow that she did it and she could not be retrialed....thats something I dont get. Thats where our justice system fails....if she ever admits to it now, she gets off scotch free STILL because of a little thing called Double Jeopardy...
However, God still loves her. And wants her to come to Him. He sent His Son to die for her, just as much as He did for me. Maybe she just needs a good exorcism, cause homegirl has to have some demonic influence to do a heinous crime like that. I've been convicted and praying that God lets me see her through HIS eyes, not mine..and its not easy. I can't condemn her, for Christ said- "He who is without sin, cast the first stone." I may have not killed anybody, but sin is sin and I've done my fair share. I hope she finds Christ before someone finds her...scarily enough,....I dont think shes going to last long out in the public. There are a LOT of people out there ready to cast stones, and Jesus isn't going to stop them.
Secondly, the last shuttle launch was today. End of an era. Kinda sad when you think about it. Soo many jobs lost...people who have spent their WHOLE CAREER in this field with NASA and today was the end of it. The space program was something most people saw as iconic and timeless, and yet here we are. There will be other shuttles to outerspace, just none run by the American government...only by other countries. Its a good thing too, I guess. Thats billions of dollars saved that we can put to our debt now. Its just....sad. the end of an icon.
Speaking of endings, Tripps in Asheville closed last week. Not that I ate there a lot, but I use to in my college days with my 2 best friends. We always went there and got the bread with sliced parmesan cheese and Ceasar dressing. Their Ceasar dressing was THE BEST! I had a lot of memories there with them...laughing really hard and slamming my fist on the table, making everything shake and my friends really embarrased to sit with me....having a deep, serious conversation and Laura Lyn and her ADD self looking out the window and bust out laughing cause a guy fell off his motorcycle getting onto it...its an end of its own era...however short it may be. Things arent ever going to go back to the way they were...we'll never have those days again.
So this is what it means to grow up. Sometimes letting go of things is hard. Moving on is difficult. As I prepare to move on to the next journey in life, I'm trying desperately to hold on to what I have here, but honestly, I dont know if I'll ever return to Asheville. I have NO idea whats going to happen after this tour. I'm trying to get rid of EVERYTHING that I can't take with me and build from the ground up when and if I ever get settled somewhere. So thats enough rambling for now. Gotta get back to work....
