After explaining to someone (in real life) the other day that I am not devastated that Sen. McCain didn't win the election, I was called a Republicrat (hahaha...wut?), but I do like being a Republic rat, 'cos I like rats.  I said, "you mean like a moderate conservative?"  And he said, "about." Then, we shrugged and shuffled off to Noodles and Company and made fun of the lunch crowd, because they seemed a tad rushed and extra harpy for some particular reason.  I watched a lady roll her eyes so much at the counter worker that I thought she was possessed.  Anyway, I've made it my goal now to debunk and mock anyone still insisting on hanging on to extremist views and conspiracy theories from either the left side or the right side, democrat or republican, liberal or conservative; because, remember, it's not the president or the vice president or America or politics or religion or crazy people that will bring about the end of the world...it's the Hadron Collider.  Yeah, remember that little piece of scientific shenanigans that borked not too long ago?  Be afraid...be very afraid.  One time on the History Channel, I watched a show on how people were interpreting the writings of Nostradamus and the end of the world; and I actually started to believe some of that shit and started getting all antsy and itchy...and then I remembered....I'm sane.

So, here's the score:

1.  President-elect Obama has a tough road ahead of him.  Let's support him in every single way we can as Americans so that we can lift this country from the ashes.

2.  Sen. McCain lost and President Bush is leaving.  Let's just leave it at that, okay? 

3.  Gov. Palin is still an idiot.  I'm not leaving that one alone...ever.  Not if she actually really plans on running in 2012.  I will be her biggest nemesis (hahaha...superiority complex on my part).  I'm going to (if I actually can) hit her with every tough question I can think of like, "Quick, Governor Palin, name the country to our immediate north."  For real people. 

4.  It was 74 degrees here on Monday, and it's going to snow by this weekend.  Yesterday, there were severe thunderstorms in the Midwest with tornado warnings next to states with blizzard warnings (??????????).  Blizzards in Rapid City...oh god, I hate snow so much.

5.  California makes me sad...I've begun drafting some letters to legislators...for real.  I'm not sure who to write or what to do or where to send it, but I'm looking into some things.  My idea is that if enough people pressure the courts in these states to look at the constitutionality of these amendments, maybe these amendments can be taken off these state constitutions.  I don't know, but I'm not going to give up on trying.  You should too if you live here in America.  Please, don't let people be denied basic civil rights.  Arizona and Florida have also denied civil rights.  I don't think it's a very far reach to believe that once civil rights are denied to this group, pretty soon it's this group, and then this group, etc., etc.  This is not a good thing at all.

6.  I realized the other day after watching President-elect Obama speaking, that my grandpa kinda beared a bit of a resemblance to President-elect Obama.  This made me weirdly happy for some reason.  Whatcha' think?  Ah, maybe I'm just being loopy.  My grandpa actually looked like Leonard Nimoy.

7.  Work really sucks right now.  Well, not the work itself but how busy it has been lately which is odd considering summer is usually the busiest time.  Last week, I worked 67 hours.  This week, as it is Thursday, I've already worked about 60 hours and still have the rest of my shift today into the evening and Friday.  Point?  I'm tired. 

8.  We still don't know who won the senate race here in Minnesota.  The race because of how close it was warrants under procedure here a recount.  About 477 or so votes separate incumbent Senator Norm Coleman (R) from Al Franken (D).  They and their camps are still taking pot shots at each other.  It's kinda funny and yet sad at the same time.  Minnesota overwhelmingly voted for President-elect Obama; however, most of the congressional races went to incumbent Republicans including to Minnesota Republican Representative of the 6th congressional district Michelle Bachman who referred or inferred (whatever) that President-elect Obama was anti-American.  People are so weird. 

9.  My little nephew wants Hulk Hands for Christmas.  He told me this and then did a Hulk smash on my thighs and how having the hands would make that so much more effective.  Sometimes, I wish I were 4.

Buh-bye! : )
