Politics SUCK
Wow, it's been forever since I posted on here. I guess it's not surprising, since things have been crazy in a good way!
However, tonight I am very tired and I suspect a little cranky. No good reason! I'm thinking about calling it a night and going to bed; I know I'll just lie there for the next three hours, but maybe I'll get lucky and fall asleep early.
I've been really busy filling orders lately (yay!) and making cameo necklaces in real life AND in my dreams lol. I adore my new Etsy shop!!! SpellboundWings.Etsy.com. I have literally about 15 paintings in progress, with a bunch of them really close to being done. I love this batch of paintings and feel it will expand my portfolio a lot- always a good thing! I've also been confirmed as an artist in OryCon 30's Art Show this November-- whoo hoo! It will be my very first convention and art show, so we'll see how it goes :)
I'm not going to rant about it extensively since I'm SO SO SO SO SO SOS OSOSOSOSOS SO sick of the freaking election, but can I say if I see one more pro-Obama, anti-Palin sticker/button/phrase/bumper sticker I think I will lose my mind, grab a pair of scissors, and run around screaming my head off trying to chop up invisible nargles.
I hate politics. I hate McCain. I hate Obama. I hate what I've seen this election bring out in millions of Americans. I do not agree with many of her policies, but I have been appalled by the disgusting attacks perpetrated against Palin. There is NO excuse for wearing a T-shirt at her speech that says "Palin is a c_ _ _." NO EXCUSE. I can't believe that it's not only acceptable but encouraged to bash Palin extensively, including using crude language and metaphors, yet if someone doesn't want to vote for Obama ( cuz he's a frigging UNLIKEABLE IDIOT WITH NO EXPERIENCE), that person must be racist. Give me a BREAK! The only people making this race about... race is the ones who say crap like that. I can tell you, if we were to have President Palmer from 24 running, I would vote for him in a nano-second. I don't care if he's black, white, polka dotted or purple. Obama is NOT Palmer; he has no experience, no good ideas as far as I'm concerned, and I can't stand hearing him speak any more than McCain. I can't believe how many people are mindlessly worshipping Obama; if they were doing the same to McCain I'd be just as disgusted. Sometimes people really are sheep and lemmings.
Whoops! So much for not ranting. Politics just seems to bring out the ugliness in humans, and really makes me want to crawl back into my fantasy worlds and paint all day... even more than usual. It just annoys me when I'm on Etsy trying to look at handmade items and all I see are Obama pins and anti-Palin pins with disgusting phrases written on them. I wish Etsy had a no-politics policy!
Okay, that's all tonight. I'm bummed I didn't get any painting done, but that's what tomorrow's for, right? :) Or homework...
