I am deeply saddened by this...

I am sad about Ted Kennedy. I grew up in a house where he was considered the devil incarnate, but when I got old enough to think for myself, I knew that was very much not true. He was an amazing, awesome man and he will be missed deeply by any person who was any kind of minority and/or treated like a second class citizen here in America. He never wavered from his beliefs, and was never afraid to call out a fellow member of the Senate if they deserved it.

My friend Gina wrote what I feel should be his obituary in every paper on the planet, so I will link to her blog now: Gina's brilliant tribute to Ted Kennedy

I am still having kidney infection symptoms, I am still frustrated in my attempts to find a psychiatrist...etc, etc, etc.

I shall leave you now, as I need to hurry the hell up and get dressed so I'm not late for an appointment.
