California did good, didn’t it? No on EVERYTHING! Take THAT, Arnold. I
was immensely cheered this morning, driving home, thinking about my
home state and how well it did, although by the skin of its teeth.
It does make me wonder, though, how a state’s population can reject gay
marriage initiatives, but still be liberal enough to understand that
some girls WILL have abortions, whether they’re safe or not. Oh, well.
On the gay civil rights front: Go Maine! Texas, you make me ashamed and
sad (although I know my loving liberal Texan readers got out there and
voted!).
There. The political section of this blog is now over, and we can talk
about sensitive things like feelings. And how I miss Lala and I think
she’s been well enough Buddhist for a while, am’nt I right? How much
levitating can someone do in a week? (Don’t freak out – I don’t think
she levitates. Rides a skateboard pretty well, though.) The dogs and I
are ready for her to come home now.
I just started my weekend, and I didn’t do it well. I got off at six,
home by seven, in bed by eight, and I meant to just nap a little. I got
up at three! That’s a Real Sleep, which means that tonight’s sleep will
be rough, and I have to get up at five in the morning to make it to
work for an all-day mandatory training class, which eats into valuable
weekend time. But god bless overtime.
I’ve deemed today my do-nothing day. I’ve already slept most of it
away, and you know what I’m going to do with the rest? Nothing.
(Nothing being knitting/spinning and watching Tivo, the best kind of
nothing.) If I sleep tonight, great. If I don’t, at least tomorrow is
only training and I can’t kill anyone while on the job.
I have this new Hotel Theory, which I’ll explain in the next post. But right now I have big nothing plans to put into place….
