| Honestly, how gay is that? It's cold....it's wet....there's ice....that's called science people. I love how the reporters are having a field day with this. It's great. I know it's West Texas and it's normally hot, but sometimes, air is cold. How come there is not a "Heat Wave 2006"?
"So how is the heat now Lauren?"
"Well Bob, it is now 4pm and it's still pretty hot out here, and I'm beginning to burn. Back to you in the airconditioned studios" l
ol Ok, I'm done ranting now. Anyways, life is...well.....boring....and frozen. Classes start tomorrow and I have yet to get done with the billions of things on my list because that requires me to leave the house....so ya. Still just sitting here. I may be one of the stupid people out driving today just because I'm going insane so it kinda fits. I still really want to go to Best Buy and get Guitar Hero, which i should have done before the ice but oh well. So for now, I'm awake before noon......which serves no purpose...and still being bored because apparently everyone else is still asleep. Anyways, back to watching Broken Bridges most likely. Later. | | |
| It really has been forever since I updated this thing. Waaaay too many things to talk about lol. The short version: transfered to Cisco, moved into my own place, partied for a few months, in a relationship, out of a relationship, lived a little, got sick, quit partying, moved in with Papa, and now spending more time with my family. That's pretty much it. I've been told that if my high school friends hung out with me now, they would have no clue who I was. I am no longer the shy quiet one I was at ACHS. That kinda went out the window freshmen year. Since then, done alot of things I never thought I would do, but in all honesty........nothing I really regret....which actually feels really good to say that. I guess it's something I didn't really realize till writing this right now. Soooo much has happened in the past month, but somehow I made it through it. Went through a really messy breakup that hurt like hell, but I finally think I'm over it. Ya, I still kinda miss him, but I miss the guy he was when we were just friends. Alot has changed in the past 6 months with another friend of mine and most of the people around me think I was stupid for doing it, but I don't really regret it. Been through alot of drama, alot of pain, alot of stress, but its starting to get easier again. I've actually set new years resolutions that I really want to keep this year. For starters, #1 getting into better shape, for me, not for anyone else. Just to make me feel better about me. #2 Fill one whole entire journal with my writings. I've already written two poems this week which is such a relief and an escape to be writing again. #3......and this one's the shocker......I want to write a song.....as in lyrics, music, everything. I don't care if it never gets famous, just to know I have one song. If you really know me, thats something I have always dreamed about. You may laugh at me and think I'm crazy cuz I dont play an instrument and I never sing, but it's still something I want to do. Anyways....this entry is getting long enough. If anyone wants to get ahold of me, you know where I'm at. Peace.

| I was just sitting here talking to Raven (roommate) and just talking about how much music controls memories and emotions. Like, when you here a song that was a main part of your life at a certain time and you get the same feeling back you had then. We were talking about how bands like Spice Girls, Hanson, and all that stuff was popular when we were in late elementary school/ early middle school. Those were like the best songs ever. I was telling her about how there were two cd's I had just bought during Vision Quest and the first few weeks of college and how hearing those now, I can still feel the excitement and newness in it all. Just the new freedom and meeting new people and friends and all the laughing...it felt like the best time of my life. I listened to one of those cd's today and couldn't help but laugh thinking about all the crazy stuff that happened. I got excited all over again lol. Only if this happens to you would you understand all this. I just think its really cool. I am constantly listening to music. I'm facinated by it. How just a few sounds and certain words put together can change your mood completely. Music is complete art to me. It blows my mind. But ya anyways.... College is going ok right now. Having fun as usual. I will try to update more...for those of you that actually read this...which I doubt is very many of you...if any actually. but ya. Peace Out! ~Jess~ | | |
| Trinity water flows burnt orange

The Trinity River mysteriously turned a 'burnt orange' color around the Rose Bowl game.
After a section of the Trinity River near Grand Prairie mysteriously turned a reddish-orange color last week, authorities began scrambling for answers and some residents feared their drinking water may be tainted.
The treated sewage that was discharged back into the river had a distinctive reddish-orange hue before, during and after last week's Rose Bowl, and investigators are working to see if the game had any connection to the color.
"That sort of looks burnt orange to us," said Bill Tatum, Trinity River Authority plant manager. "But we're all UT fans. What can you say?"
The TRA ran tests after the discovery to see if they could discover the cause of the change in color.
"We've done acute biomonitoring [and a] metal scan on this thing," Tatum said. "We know metals are clean."
Officials with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality said more tests will be done, but potential dangers appear to be minimal. Also, authorities said people in North Texas should not expect burnt orange water coming out the tap.
"Right now, there are not any carcinogens or anything," said TCEQ regional director Frank Espino. "It's going to be safe."
Investigators said they will also continue to trace the source because contaminating the water supply, whether it's drinking water or waste water, is a serious crime.
"It's easier to dump it and get rid of it than it is to properly remove it and dispose of it," Tatum said.
Though unconfirmed, sources said they suspect several hundred gallons of burnt orange dye may have been flushed down a drain somewhere between Arlington and Southlake, and flowed through miles of pipe before entering the TRA wastewater treatment plant.
Espino said his early assessment is that a local printing operation may have discharged the dye after printing T-shirts following UT's championship game. Further tests and investigation should help determine the exact cause.
LONGHORNS FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
