Reading Kat's recent post reminded me of something that happened this morning.

Conversation between my mother and I this morning, on the way to work:

Mom: That van over there has a Kerry sticker on it. I don't know why anyone would vote for him, he wouldn't know what to do.  I don't know who I'll vote for in 2008, since Bush can't run anymore.

I am happy to announce that I have officially been off my migraine medication for one week, and I'm feeling so much better.  I was on it for about a year and a half.  It's amazing how your body can get so used to something, you have no idea that how you're feeling isn't normal.  Everyone tells me that I am so much better off mentally and physically ( Read more... )

I think my computer is sick. :( After I've been online for about 10-20 minutes, everything starts getting slow and all my open windows freeze up. It takes forever to cut off or restart my computer when this happens. I've checked to see if any spyware has made its way into my programs, and I didn't see anything. I've ran the Norton Virus thingy ( Read more... )

Is anyone else having trouble using the rich text mode when you're updating your journal? I've always used it, but the last couple days whenever I click on the "rich text" link below the entry box, it just takes me back to the LJ homepage. It's driving me nuts! Any ideas?

I'm really getting sick of these doctors who just pat you on the back and tell you nothing is wrong. There *is* something wrong with me ( Read more... )

Back with a few pics - they didn't come out very well at all. I kind of expected that, but really, it looks like we were 5 miles away when we were much much closer. They sort of look like dots in the pictures...not at all how it was in reality! And the Rilo Kiley ones didn't come out at all. :( Still, at least I have a little proof that I was there ( Read more... )

I'm back from the concert and awesome doesn't even begin to describe it.  It's been around eighteen hours and I'm still floating on cloud nine.  I'll have all the details for anyone who cares as soon as I get the pics developed.  Not sure if any of them turned out, keep your fingers crossed.  I had pretty good seats...I could seem them well but not ( Read more... )

Can I just say that this is one of the most disgusting things I've ever read?  I can't believe Americans and the world have to deal with this family being in charge for three more years.  I can't even comment on it any more than that because the rage is just...yeah, I can't even explain it.

Onto lighter subjects...

My third week of work began ( Read more... )

I don't understand what is happening down in New Orleans. During Hurricane Floyd in North Carolina, most people came together when nobody had anything but the clothes on their back. Cities were flooded, half of my own town was flooded. I still don't remember ever hearing about this kind of "lawlessness" as they put it. Of course, Katrina is ( Read more... )

I sound like a frog, or a man, or a frog-man...something like that.  That cold I had last weekend started going away and it was replaced with a lovely case of laryngitis.  I really don't sound human.  I'm drinking hot tea, cold orange juice, tons of Halls...nothing is helping much.  The hot tea was the most effective though.

The new job!  I worked ( Read more... )
