I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My husband and I have discovered up here that stores have seasons. Like, you can't buy a fan anymore. You can buy a heater. No fans until it stops being cold. At least, not at Target.

Sort of on the same topic, is it practical to freeze a whole peach? I am drinking a smoothie made out of chocolate soy milk and frozen peach slices, and it is OMG so yummy. Can I buy up the last of the season's peaches and have them live in my freezer for six months?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

What in the hell does ACORN have to do with Obama? They're talking about it like it's his organization.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

He used to be an organizer, didn't he???

Sure -- but I'd slice them first.

Wrod. Here's hoping we don't get a McCain/Palin burn bag this time. Since we don't actually get to kill them if that happens, unlike most people who get burned that particular way. God, I'd love to see Matthews' face if I said that on the teevee. He'd shut up for ten seconds. Keith already fucks up my heart rate, though. Sometimes it's hard to be disabled and explain why election coverage makes you flush. I wish I could say it was the treadmill. Of course, democracy makes me happy. But I look weird if I love it more than a friend.

So, it's not so bad, 'cause it's a dry snow?

We're known for our dry snow, it's the famous-in-some-circles Utah powder. I won't guarantee you won't run into some rain/snow mix, AKA "wintery mix", but you won't need Huskies to get where you're going.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh lord. Obama was in Cincy today, speaking to about 15,000 people. In the comments section of the newspaper article about it, there are comments like "You know why McCain holds his rallies in the evening? HIS supporters HAVE JOBS!" and "I drove past the cars waiting to get in to the rally, and most had only 1 person. Seems all these 'forward thinkers' would have carpooled or organized shuttles if they REALLY cared about the environment!"

Oh, snap. Lame.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

He used to be an organizer, didn't he???

Yeah. And all community organizers are terrorists or socialists or satanists or something....

ACORN is big on issues affecting low-wage workers, but I think it's too new to be actually something Obama worked on. But it was founded by somebody black, though. I met Edwards at one of their minimum-wage things.

I'm partially burned out on the campaigns. Like, I avoid reading about the latest offensive crap uttered by the Palin/McCain campaign, but I'll read stuff on how bad they're doing....
