So I drove down to the Chattahoochee Nature Preserve today just for kicks;
hella creepy but so pretty at the same time. I felt like I was in Silent Hill...half expected some zombies to pop out of the woods at me at any moment. And all at the same time I was listening to Boys of Summer by Don Henley and drooling over the 80s and wishing I had been alive then. This millenium SUCKS. Everyone's into technology and material BS. In the 80's, the coolest technology was an Atari game system and it's not like anyone went around bragging if they had one, and if they did do that, no one gave a damn anyway. Now, if you don't have an iPhone/Blackberry with bluetooth, bling, and remote video texting you're not hip. Oh, and the whole internet-on-your-phone thing. Now, people can check their email while their in the BATHROOM, even. Jeeeeez.
Everything was about the moment, the fun, in the 80s.
Everything is about the future now. No one takes time to live in the present anymore.
And the sad thing is, I'm sitting here complaining YET I'm using technology to do it.
Even if I wanted to completely separate myself from technology, I couldn't do it. You couldn't do it.
IT'S GOT US HOOKED.
