Some bullet points
Thursday, January 31st, 2008How bout a bullet point post?
- Got a badass new phone. Its pretty. It does what I like. It makes me remember how nice it is to have a smartphone that doubles as a phone. Very nice.
- Odelay is 12 years old. I’m 30. But I feel older finding out that first bit of news.
- This Presidential election is really bumming me out. I mean, as soon as you really get in there and realize that there’ll never be an election in your lifetime that isn’t a ‘lesser of two evils’ kinda gig, they go and make it a ‘lesser of two really really lame evils’ thing. Except at this point, its a bunch of evils. Particularly now that Edwards, the only person who had a little bit of pepper (other than maybe McCain, and certainly Ron Paul, if you like you pepper flavored with a hint of fascist) is out of the race, theres really nothing in it for me. I mean, holy crap, you can sum them all up at this point as either “political party suckup” or “political party suckup”.
Please correct me if I’m wrong. I mean, if you can go out there and tell me why exactly either of the frontrunning democratic candidates deserve to be leader of the free world, other than the fact that they’ve gotten significant democratic brownie points, AND make a convincing argument, I’ll bake you… uh… brownies. Yeah. Or, for that matter, exactly how electing another candidate running on the same platform as Bush (looking at you, Romney/Huckabee) is anywhere NEAR an intelligent idea, that might get you some fried chicken.
I’m serious. This is sad in my native country. Why the hell should anybody care about the electoral process if THIS crap is the best that the electoral process can give me? No thanks, I’m fixin to opt out. - Things are shaping up nicely vis a vis matrimony. Got our officiant ready to roll, so all we need to do is ship out invitations. No, you’re not getting one. Well, maybe.
- Um… so… the house? Yeah, its on the market. Found out that one a day before closing. Apparently I kicked a cat in my sleep, and karma didn’t like it or something. Anybody wanna help me dig up a couple of mortgage payments?
- Speaking of sleep, I’ve been pondering the fact that I woke up this morning babbling something to the lady about tentacles. I still haven’t figured that one out. Maybe the cellphone contract’s on my mind…
