Gleeeeeeeeee!
Saturday, 4 October 2008 18:245 Things That Were Good Today
1. Picking apples at the farm. ZOMG. They are so juicy and delicious they're better than candy. For serious.
2. Dogs!
3. The Berlin County Fair. Critters! Unhealthy foods! Pumpkins of unusual size!
4. All these books from the book barn.
5. Going to dinner with the Boy's too-cool-for-school family and getting Indian!
3 Things I Did Well
1. I was an apple picking champ
2. Did not go too hog wild at fair
3. Gleeposted!
2 Things I Look Forward To
1. Being here tomorrow (until we leave *sad face*)
2. Reading all my new books and getting back to writing next week
Oh, and in case you needed another reason to love the Boy's family? We watched the VP debates with alcohol and played the Sarah Palinism Drinking Game. Take a sip every time she winks at the camera, says hockey mom, or can't pronounce nuclear correctly.
Needless to say, we ran outta booze quickly. But when intoxicated, Sarah Palin is 20% less annoying and damaging to the cause of women every where.
But really, Palin, winking at the camera? Really?
The debate doesn't matter, fact wise. Neither of them really went for the throat, though I think Biden could've if his handlers hadn't reined him in. The fact is this, when Sarah Palin stood up on the stage next to Joe Biden, she looked like a joke. Like this, sorta, in fact. Biden looked like he might actually belong somewhere in the White House.
When I think about a person who might one day have to talk to our friends and enemies, who will be recognized on a world wide scale, who will be our face to every other country - I just can't imagine Palin.
I mean, really? Do you want to send a hockey mom to try to deal with the complex, delicate issues facing our nation here and abroad? Do you honestly see any shred of competence in a woman who wasn't even savvy enough to answer the questions?
America's image needs a dire makeover, not to mention our policies and actions. I just can't take someone seriously who used the phrase "bless their hearts" in a VP debate.
Okay, political ranting over.
