Howard Dean can stuff it

I'm using some of my old political t-shirts as stuffing. At last they're getting some real use.

The Unabashed Librarian really loved my idea for a article this month. I find that completely charming.

While I don't believe in running more than five miles at a stretch because I'm like, take the bus you showoff, but the feeling I had this weekend when I realized Bush is going to be in office for more than a year, it must be how a marathon runner feels at mile 20. I mean, I really freaked out a little like this is never. going. to end. I think Australia was the last straw. Spain, Ireland, Poland, now the Australians, they all threw the bums out-- WHY ISN'T IT OUR TURN??? And this awful Congress is so chicken to challenge him on anything. Because he's so popular and all. So I'm taking to crafting and cooking instead of despair. Rage, rage against the dying of my spirit!

So. How do you guys cope? Or are you one of the magic 24 percent? I want to hear from you too, if only to point and laugh at you.

I turn off NPR in the morning; I don't listen in the evening. I skip past the front page of the morning NYTimes. I read only the Arts & Leisure, Styles, and bits of the Week in Review sections on Sunday.

And then I ruin it all by reading Pandagon, Pam's House Blend, Glenn Greenwald, and Talking Points Memo. Ah, well.

Other than that, there's marmalade. And fic.

I have a ready-made excuse to ignore Glenn Greenwald now that he's drunk the "Ron Paul is DREAMY!" Kool-Aid.

Your comment reminded me that I hadn't checked Pam's House Blend in a while. I was scrolling, scrolling, scrolling and then I realized, this is all for the same fucking day! Minks on speed doesn't even begin to cover it.
