It's a sunny day and it's Friday, so it must be a great day. I was a little hard on marriage in yesterday's blog, so I'm hoping no one read it (unless they really really hate their marriage and enjoyed reading about their miserable life). Let's be positive today, since it is such a beautiful day outdoors (surely it's a wonderful day indoors too).
On a Friday its good to think about all the fun things going on this weekend. Hmmm,I wonder what kind of great(inexpensive) things there are to do. Since the weather is a little cooler, the idea of taking the bicycle out for a ride down the parkway sounds enjoyable and cheap and maybe I could take some photos along the river and post them on this blog or on FB.
There's an ice cream festival happening on Saturday at the Agriculture Museum on Prince of Wales Drive between the traffic circle and Baseline Rd. But that costs $7.00 for adults. Then's there's bus fair on top of that and maybe some kind of donation or fee for the ice cream.
Yep that's about it, not much of a happening weekend in the Capital, well at least not without me using quite a bit more energy to find freebies.

This is a blog about nothing (not to be confused with a blog about knotting)
Since this blog is an excellent example of how both the author and reader can waste their valuable time, it serves very little use. This is why I have come to the decision to write here more often. It's a blog about nothing (but aren't most of them?), however, rambling on about nothing is a great way to express oneself and not worry about sounding like a professional writer or somebody important.
Well let's get started about today's events. I made a taco for lunch with re-fried beans, old cheddar cheese and salsa on pita bread. Slightly heated in the microwave and then a few bits of leaf lettuce tossed on top.
Sounds like the world is still in a mess. Gays and straights fighting in California for the right or not the right to marry. Well if they really stopped and realized how ugly marriage is, they'd probably reconsider their stand on the subject. Why two people have to commit their souls to each other because of their own insecurities and then suffer for most of the rest of their life is sad. Marriage is an old tradition and the majority of people want to keep its sanctity. Yet, the world is changing. People are exposed to more temptations, material possessions, pornography, and probably a lot of other things that our grand parents never were aware of. Marriage shouldn't be thought of as a happy ever after state, because it never is. The reality is people don't change for the better after they're married, they become themselves and likely get worse with age and just put up with each other's annoying personalities and habits.
For all those getting married this week: Congratulations have a happy life, and please disregard everything you read here (and don't make me say I told you so).
