Just Cuz

Kylie (Fantastic Mr. Fox) reminds me of my new dog, Maya. She is special.

Priming the Pump

So Gov. Sarah Palin (R-Crazyville) has decided to turn down a significant portion of the stimulus funds tagged for her state including roughly $160 million in funds for education. I guess the dumber the populace, the more likely they are to vote Republican.

The Fragility of Ego

As I attempt to roll back the rock from the cave my self esteem has been locked in for the past three years, I have learned to expect setbacks. However, I did not see the train that hit me yesterday afternoon coming at all. No whistles, flashing lights or crossing barriers, just a lot of weird feelings associated with an odd situation involving friends, lovers, acquaintances, and much second guessing. Oh, fickle ego, why so fragile? You have been crushed by many, but never has something seemingly so benign been so disabling. Sometimes I wish I could crawl in that cave and join what is left of my rotting self esteem.

OK, So Maybe There is a God

I was two paragraphs into today's Bill Kristol column in the Times and completely enraged. I thought, "This is it, I'm canceling my subscription or maybe just threatening to cancel my subscription." This fuckface was trumpeting all the conservative successes of the past 3 decades. Talk about fiddling while Rome burns. To top it off, I didn't even bother to finish the column and remained somewhat enraged until about 15 minutes ago when I found out that he was no longer with the paper. I quickly returned to the column and noticed this wonderful sentence in italics at the foot of his column: This is William Kristol's last column. Good riddance.

Although, we all know that Bill "All wrong, All the time" Kristol will land safely on his cloven hooves on the conservative lecture circuit, dink tanks, or Fox news. Thanks for nothing you fucking asshole.

Evil Incarnate

Seriously, was the costume shop completely out of the Devil horns, tail and trident? How else can you explain Dick Cheney's choice of sinister black hat and wheelchair for today's festivities.

HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT.

I'm so happy.

Anniversary Blues

Yep, it's another one of those days. I guess I should have known when I woke up to the grey skies and light drizzle that things were not all that peachy. I had hoped that because of my situation with someone that I would not spend that much time thinking about her. I was wrong (nothing new there). This is going to be my last post related to our failed relationship. I am done wasting valuable emotional energy on her when I have so much better use for it.
