In policy and perspective, Obama is what we once thought of as a moderate Republican. Which 1) shows how extreme the GOP party has become; and 2) is still a bit too right for me.
Yep. Of course, I knew that when I voted for him.
Ugh msbelle, but I'm glad you bought yourself a nice Xmas gift. I want to see the hat, you know. I tend to buy my own gifts too although once in a while my DH surprises me with one he bought too.
le n, I have never been much of a Christian Slater fan, but "Heathers" was his day for sure.
We need pictures of the fuzzy sparkly Christmas hat. For...reference. You know.
I agree re: hat pictures.
I've had a crapTAStic day, BUT (squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee) just discovered S.E. Hinton on Twitter.
My day is suddenly okay.
Yes.
Uhg, just got word that my awesome, cross-country-motorcycling Uncle Frank just got home from the hospital. Divertriculosus (not itis) but massive hemorrhaging. No infection, it's just likely to happen again, solution is to go to the nearest ER. I expect this compromises his roaming ways, and that makes me sad.
Yep. Of course, I knew that when I voted for him.
Yep. Me too. Not happy, but not particularly surprised.
Oh I adore you Uncle Frank, Sara! Hope he mends up soon and easily.
Me too. Both he and my aunt have done bouts with cancer, Sue is 70, he's 73/74. My dad is 70.
I'm just in denial about my mom's family's mortality. Eldest aunt is ..shit. She might be approaching 80. How the fuck. I can't remember the age difference between her and my mom.
Yep. Of course, I knew that when I voted for him.
Yep.
Oh mac, cut your mom some slack. Brattiness sucks.
I am still at work. Blargh.
