Thats right my girls out with a hot new CD "Circus". Britney's life has been like a circus, "in the center of the ring". She busted out two hot performances on Good Morning America today, I know I actually woke up to watch it! I'm listening to her CD for the first time right now, and "Mannequin" is blowing my mind.
Britney is my favorite artist, I feel like I can really relate to her. She has no privacy, everyone is honed in on her life and everything she does is magnified to ridiculous extents. This is how I grew up, I was so sheltered to the point where I would do anything to rebel. But now she's here, "new and improved and sayin' 'thank you very much'."
Despite the public eye's chokehold on her she still struggles to live her life happy, and so do I.
But back to my life: Thanksgiving was great! I spent it with my parents, it was really nice getting to see them again. It's been a while since we have sat down and eaten together as a family. I topped off the holiday by celebrating at my Editors house, and the whole crew was there. It was great, despite all the things that have tried to bring me down in my life I still have an amazing group of people who bring me up.
After a crazy weekend (not going into details) I decided... maybe its time to finally grow up. My Uncle told me I'm not a kid anymore, I'm a man. I don't think I'm a kid, but I also don't think I'm a man. I look at my friends, and people I have grown up with and they've all grown so much. I don't understand how it happened, one moment we're playing games together at recess and the next we're getting married and having children. I am still so young, I am ready now to start growing and mature at a pace I really feel comfortable with. I'm taking this one simple step at a time. I've really calmed down my self, to some extents.
Well, thats it for now on the updates in my life. Hopefully, the next chapter will have something in it of greater value, I really need a new rush right in my life right now... especially with finals coming up!

Dillon,
Great blog layout; you've really beautified this, your corner of the web!
Mannequin fuckin rocks! I love that glissando vocal climb!!
Wonderful introspection! I relate that I don't feel like a kid but definitely not 'grown up'. I feel young with responsibilities and with the ability to play.
I love the way you've linked to all your stories! Really excellent work, Dillon!
