I don't get the people who say they won't vote at all if their candidate doesn't get the nomination. They might as well just vote for the other person!

I'm going to vote for Bernie in the primaries and if it's Hillary I'll vote for Hillary. Some people might say "it's wrong just to vote for your party no matter what" but while there may one day be a Republican running for president I'd vote for this election is not that day.

Woohoo, Form Clinic tomorrow night!

I'm working on creating and updating (all the) documentation (in the world), so for second I was really bewildered why you'd be pleased about an entire clinic about updating forms. Then my brain remembered the places that aren't my doc system and it makes much more sense now. Have fun!

This isn't even a "Lesser of Two Evils" thing, no matter how you feel about Clinton or Sanders, that's "Choosing My Less Favored Candidate Over Evil."

I may have to take a non-Buffista social media holiday until at least after the Florida primary in March. I am engaging way more than I should be. I need to pace myself and save the enemy making efforts until summer. Supported one cousin in Red Nebraska for saying she was sick of the GOP candidates trying to out praise God each other, only to have her aunt insisting the issue was not enough religion in politics. Sigh. Minds are not being changed there.

Honestly if Dole had run against Gore in 2000 I might very well have voted for him. And in 2008 I didn't think it would have been a disaster if Obama lost, though I'd have been lighting a candle for McCain's health every night. But the scum has really risen to the top of the Republican party in the last four years.

Timelies all!

That bright orb in the sky was back today. How odd. :)

Did you see your shadow, Sheryl?

I didn't. Still cold this afternoon, though.

It's quitting time, and it's light out enough to see the horizon and the actual houses, instead of just the street lights. It's like--spring may actually come again.

That was pretty cryptic exclamation, Epic. In my head, of course, I had just been talking about a Form Clinic instead of not even mentioning it by name hours earlier. Jeesh, self. Tai Chi Form, to be slightly clearer.

Another illustration of how freaking scattered I am - my coworker gave me a check last August (yes, 6 moths ago) for an expense we split, and I kept forgetting to deposit it, and she asked me out it yesterday so I brought it in to work so she could make sure that the outstanding check from her reconciliations is indeed this one (it is) and I realized that I didn't have to get to my bank to deposit it (my bank is half an hour away and basically only open while I am at work), I could go to her bank and cash it. So I did that after work, where the teller and I discovered together that my Driver's license is expired.

Now, it beggars belief that I could have not renewed my driver's license for nearly a year without the DMV making very sure I knew about it and paid lots of late fees, etc., so I'm pretty sure I did renew. I even have what may very well be a real memory of getting my new driver's license and sticking the old one in my "running wallet" to serve as emergency ID . Which is the wallet that I brought the bank because I have NO IDEA where the renewed license might be. I must have put it in something I was going to carry somewhere where I wasn't taking a purse, but that doesn't narrow the options down much...

I'm am so discouraged with both my kids tonight. I am feeling like for Casper to succeed at this challenging and competitive high school I have to quit my job. She's just not capable of keeping up with it all without a LOT of parent help, and I simply do not have the energy to be checking every assignment every night. Dillo, for his part, is 9 years old and still has to be reminded to poop regularly. At least Casper is in charge of her own shitting?

Parenting is so hard.

I am feeling like for Casper to succeed at this challenging and competitive high school I have to quit my job.

Is it at all possible for her to go to a good but not crazy competitive school instead where she can be responsible for her own work?

Man, high school stuff is crazy hard these days, I can't even imagine needing my parents to help me at that level. They both worked and definitely weren't around to do that at all, ever.
