Here’s a list of things I wish to be Your pillow and your blanket and your life time guarantee

Last night I saw my first concert in Seattle: The Indigo Girls. Sarah Bettens (from K's Choice) opened for them. It was a great atmosphere. The concert was practically on the water a couple blocks below the space needle.

Some Christian Nuts were there spouting religious stuff at the gate, they yelled at me saying wasn't doing God's will. To which I replied "neither are you, sir." I went with my lesbian friend from work. The ticket was originally meant for her girlfriend, but she was delayed in Arkansas, so I got to go. My friend and I could be sisters: same color hair, eyes, same skin. She looks more like me than my siblings. Bible thumpers like that show up to concerts with predominantly lesbian and gay followings to make the gays and lesbians hate themselves (as if they don't have it hard enough). There are 3 types of religious freaks:

1. Someone who did a lot of living and things they feel guilty for so they dive into church and God and think somehow that if they repent now they will save themselves. Because whatever they did was so awful to them that they hate theirselves then they go out in search of people to make them feel guilty for loving themselves.

2. People that wish to feel empowered by pushing their "high ground" onto other people in an attempt to prove/feel they are better than everyone else. (This isn't restricted to religious freaks, one of my ex's did this stuff all the time.)

3. People that are jealous of the happiness of others and that others have it better so they make every effort to make those that seem happier as miserable as possible. These people really buy into the whole reward in heaven bit and take no responsibility for how shitty their life is now. (My uncle and one of my ex's fit this so it isnt restricted to just religion.)

There was a peaceful, happy feeling about the place inside. I fell in love with Sarah Bettens' music all over again. The Indigo Girls were great too. The song below reminded me of my man and I, specifically the excerpt in the subject for today.




Sarah Bettens - Follow me Lyrics:
Someday I’ll stop trying and I know
How much time I’ve wasted always wanting more
I doubt you’ll end up where you need to be with me
I tend to run in circles, wallowing in my own sea
I can run and play and drive into the ocean
I can touch the sand and feel it slip away
You could follow me I don’t know where
I’m going, you could follow me
You could follow me it might not be the
Smartest thing to do, but you could follow me
I want you to be happier than me
I’m a poor example of a carefree human being
Here’s a list of things I wish to be
Your pillow and your blanket and your life time guarantee
I can love you all the way across the ocean
And I doubt that that we’ll ever go away
You could follow me I don’t know where
I’m going, you could follow me
You could follow me it might not be the
Smartest thing to do, but you could follow me
If I ever stop believing there’s a reason for my life
I might as well stop trying to make
Sense of what is right
You could follow me I don’t know where
I’m going, you could follow me
You could follow me it might not be the
Smartest thing to do, but you should follow me
