Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
It's supposed to reach a high of 80 here today. In November. I'm so freaking confused right now. And of course all of my summer clothes are stashed away for the year and my feet are not fit to be seen in sandals. Lame weather.
However... Car~ma and Extra Quick Staff Meeting~ma!
It's rainy and icky here today.
Car~ma Aillean.
Windsparrow, meetings on your day off suck.
I thought I wasn't going to have therapy because my therapist's wife's due date is coming up, and my therapist said he mostlikely wouldn't be there this week. I called him, and he just called me back to say he was there today. I was just getting used to the idea of staying in bed wth my aching back.
They fucking approved the gay marriage ban. WTF? This is a blue effing state! We're liberals!
We're obviously from different parts of Wisconsin.
The state I grew up in and the state I've lived in for the past 18 years have both declared me a second-class citizen. Bleah.
I really, really hoped Wisconsin was poised to break the trend. At least Arizona seems to have. (Thanks, erika!)
Damn. The governor of RI was re-elected. He ran the first time as "a former teacher", and then he totally screwed over the teachers in his first time. Hate him.
Speaking of Arizona, I saw this on a website -
Voters weren't keen about another, more quirky Arizona measure: They defeated a proposal that would have awarded $1 million to a randomly selected voter in each general election.
Heh. Um, okay. Odd proposal.
I *believe* Colorado results are still pending on the gay marriage ban. I should go check my news sites again though.
ETA: Fuck! Cancel that. Colorado banned gay marriage and totally shot down Ref. I. So pissed.
We had a "professional clown" running for mayor. I haven't seen our local results yet. Off to hunt them down...
I'm pleased with most of the results here.
Just balanced my checkbook. I'm off $4.93. Now, I expected it to be off, 'cause I was off $4.95 the last time. But, now there's that extra $0.02. It's gonna drive me nuts!

NSM that. I mean, we swing Dem because most of our population is in larger cities, like Milwaukee and Madison, but the outlying rural areas tend heavily toward the red. However, there are a lot of Dems like my daughter who still don't believe in gay marriage. Not necessarily for religious reasons, but she saw it as leading to an abuse of the system, similar to folks marrying a non-US citizen in order to get a green card. Non-gay same sex couples would get married in order to take advantage of partner benefits they wouldn't normally be entitiled to. Plus, they saw the referendum to establish a universal health care system in the state as a way of providing most of those benefits sans marriage, so why should they approve gay marriage? Not a sound reasoning by any means, but an out to a lot of fence sitters, I believe.
editted for clarity.
