real politik
Its like seventy degrees and october comes this weekend. Wierd.
Nothing new going on with me. They say "idle hands are the devil's tools," but I haven't really been up to any bad news bears either. Work has become a vacuum, socially I'm just doing my thing. Hell, who am I kidding, my life is a vacuum right now. I'm not so keen on living by myself anymore. Its fun, in a way, to have my own place with my own stuff in it but at the same time the lack of human interaction gets old. I need a dog. And with this weather I've no need to move to a warmer climate--this suits me just fine.
Me thinks im going home saturday to visit the family which is something I havent done enough of lately. Saturday is all i need, because any more could be too much.
Cindy Sheehan sorta makes me sad. Ive learned to find comfort in keeping opinions to myself lately, and that's cool, but this lady irks me. What set it off was the photo of her arrest this week with the huge smile on her face. Her campaign seems to have taken the focus off her son Casey and put the spotlight on her. I cannot see how being arrested like a 60's hippie does anything but keep her name in the news. I understand the PR implications in this but if you have a cause you're fighting for then keep your focus on that not on you. Protest in support of an idea, not your own publicity. As much as I might feel she is out of line she has all the right in the world to say what she wants to in a public forum but her credibility is tarnished when she is arrested and smiling. Sad.
