Listened to David Gray on the way to work today. It was nice and relaxing. Now I'm just drinking coffee and reading the news. Interesting article about a witness in the 1963 church bombing by KKK members. It's kind of hard to believe they're actually prosecuting after all these years, but I definitely think it should be done. What I find really hard to believe is that no one has ratted after all these years. I'm sure someone knows but is too afraid to tell the authorities. People just can't keep secrets forever so I know SOMEONE knows. In a way, I feel sorry for the men who are going to trial. They could be anyone I knew in Lubbock or in Conroe. Just good-old-boys who are probably decent most of the time. It's so sad they lived with so much hate. Where do people find hate for other people? How did these men get to where they hate a skin color so much they would actually kill? I grew up in the South and I don't hate like that. It's a sad, sad situation but the sadest part is definitely the four children who died in the bombing in 1963.
Last night Jason and I were talking about our day. Apparently, he did some laundry and when he went through the pockets of his stuff he hit the jackpot! He found 4 lighters, 3 pens, and $22!! (If only I found stuff like this in my clothes, I'd do laundry more often!)
Last night I cleaned the carpet in the living room. Ended up moving EVERYTHING out of the room and cleaned and cleaned and cleaned. It was actually very rewarding, because the carpet looks a lot better. My right arm is a little sore today from the repetetive vacuuming motion. My parents were so awesome about me doing it. They didn't say anything as I blared Beasty Boys above the sound of the carpet cleaner. So the first room (the biggest room) in the house is done. Which means I only have 4 more rooms and the hallway to do!
