If You Seek Amy

I am trying to figure out why this is such a big deal. The Internet is in a buzz saying that the radio will not be playing Britney's latest single, titled "If You Seek Amy". Sure if you say the title slowly and enunciate each syllable it can sound like something a little more perverse, but it is just a song. A song mind you that was written by a huge hit maker, Max Martin. This is the same man that wrote, "Hit me baby one more time" which they also wanted to ban do to the fact it was about domestic violence. Yet, they played it and it went on to become one of the biggest grossing singles ever. I don't understand why people want to be so offended by a song they can turn off on the radio, haven't you heard of an off button, or even changing the station temporarily till the song is over. Why not allow a song that has some creativity to it on the radio... Why does everyone have to be so stuck up... Just let it go...

So to that I have to say "And all the boy and all the girls are begging to F U C K Me" :)

Random

So blogging... which mind you hasn't been updated to an actual word in the English language, has become this phenomenon that everyone wants to be a part of. People want others to read what they have to say, and they want people to tell them what they are saying is important and relevant. I admire people who want to put their ideas, beliefs, fears, lives, work, and relationships out there for all to see, although I do not want to mimic their approach to the world of "blogging". I have found in my years of writing, that when I write there is no rhyme or reason to what I am saying, or why those thoughts have formed in my mind, but I must get them out. I have been a big journaler for years because of this. So to approach journaling in a new format, why not allow those who want to know the craziness that is in my mind to read it. I have never been afraid of what I have to say, and the emotions that I feel, but I thought this would be a new avenue to approach it in a different way. So my "blog" will be a journal of sorts, random things that I am thinking, feeling, or saying that I need to get out... so I guess I am no different than anyone else who blogs, mine just may make less sense to everyone else.
