the extraordinary machine

can i tell you how much i hate to spell the word extraordinary? im pretty sure thatll be my last time doing it this blog entry.



so anyway, i changed my blog name. i got struck by a fiona apple song ,and my favorite line: be kind to me, or treat me mean. i'll make the most of it... etc. i ts such a powerful thing to say. "whatever you do, ima keep it moving as Joy." so there.

i think its immportant to remind myself that the world around me can only take me down if i let it. and thats not who i am. this particular period in time has been particularly trying, what with my granddad dying, the ever reocurring drama with my dad, and random and myriad things. but im still here. cuz im extraordinary.

anyways, here's the video of her singing the song at the benefit for katrina victims. you know the "george bush hates negroes" one, lol.
