Thoughts/on The Weather

Yesterday was the most beautiful day Las Vegas has seen for a long time. It seemed to me (and Elen) that the weather was trying to be a juxtipositon (and succeeding, fortunately.) The clouds saved us from being miserable. See, the clouds covered the whole sky, but the sun was shining just brightly enough to seep through them, creating this weird bright light that didn't hurt your eyes at all, but was so intensely white you had to wonder why it didn't. It was warm out, but there was just enough of a breeze blowing to keep it nice and cool. Essentially, it was hot and cold, sunny and cloudy. At the same time. It was some of the most amazing weather I've seen for a long time.
Come on, now WAKE UP already. Didn't mean to put you to sleep. (Sorry).
Anyways, I don't really have anything major to post but there are some things that have been pre-occupying my mind for a while now.
First off, 1910 seems like a WAY long time ago, right? They didn't have TV or cars or microwaves or other... things. Can you imagine the year 3010, when everyone will think about how deprived the people of 2010 were? It'll be hilarious. It just freaks me out to imagine that one day some teenagers will learn about the time that I was a teenager in some history class and be AMZAZED at our lack of technology. I can picture myself up in Heaven (cuz all good girls go to Heaven) laughing my head off but actually being kind of saddened...
The day will come when the music trend will change. It'll be weird for me to be the one popping in some Black Eyed Peas or Lady Gaga (Heaven forbid the day should come when I play that by my own free will) and telling my kids, "This is what was cool when I was your age," just the same way I get freaked out by Paula Abdul or Whitney Houston. (I mention these two because they are the tapes my mom still has from back "then").
Also, I dread the day when this whole bright-colored clothing trend will be over, because I am loving it. Will the day come when I will look like an old lady wearing bright turquoise? Will people joke about how I am "Stuck in 2010" the same way I joke with my friends about people being "stuck in the 70's"? Will it be uncool if I want to paint my house yellow and decorate it all reto? Will retro even be the same thing it is now when I have a house?
Do any of ya'll ever think about things like this?
Basically, what I mean by that is: Am I crazy by normal standards?
Well?
