grapevines just make everything more confusing and tangled. i hate grapevines.

My morning began with me knocking over a large mug of coffee into a basket of yarn.

Happy Monday to me.

Co-Worker: "Are you going to be glued to the t.v. tonight?"
Me: "Uh...watching Game 4 of the Pistons series?"
Co-Worker: "The President's addressing the nation about immigration."
Me: "The President is scrambling to reassure a very nervous Republican Party that he is not a complete failure as Commander in Chief and is attempting to appear as though he has real solutions to the immigration issue by using an already strapped National Guard--whose job, by the way, should have nothing to do with patrolling the Mexican border--to make the Democrats look weak on terrorism all the while reminding the public that he's doing all he can to keep them safe by confusing 2 political issues that are too complicated for the majority of Americans to be bothered to figure out what their position is on their own. I think I'm going to watch the Pistons game."

A new poll says that more Americans are starting to be concerned about the NSA database. G.W.B. should effectively remind everyone tonight that his number one priority is keeping 'merica safe by securin' the borders thereby ensuring people will forget they should be outraged.

That poor disenfranchised, underrepresented, minority faction of the Republican Party the Christian Conservatives are furious that G.W.B. hasn't signed a Constitutional Amendment banning gay marriage nor has he bothered to even really give it the old college try to repeal Roe v. Wade leaving them threatening to go shopping for a new party this fall. Yippee, I say. Go find yourself a party that'll cater to a bunch of completely-missing-the-point "Christians" that enjoy discrimination, saving fetuses, and banning naughty pictures and words.

And it looks like we've got ourselves a new friend in Libya. It's nice to see us all getting along so well. I'm sure we didn't threaten to take their lunch money or beat them up during recess unless they did what we wanted them to do in order to make that happen. Nor did we scare the pants off them by invading a sovereign nation that we weren't happy with.

I'm so glad we're giving peace a chance.
