el gordo y la pobre amber

michael moore was on the Today show today. he asked, "where is OUR Arnold?" (meaning, for the democrats). he also suggested that the republicans won in this election because they are good storytellers and were able to scare a lot of people. it made me think: i'm neither republican nor democrat. for me it is more a debate between reason and bullshit. let me explain. my disenchantment with dubya began on september eleventh. this is because though he moved his mouth endlessly, he NEVER SAID ANYTHING! well, he did say WORDS but for me, they were generalities, they didn't mean anything. and he kept saying the SAME THINGS over and over again. and i just saw everyone around me listening to him, thinking they were finding some kind of hope or whatever from him. i did not buy it. and i just can't believe that people actually take this man seriously! or that they buy the bullshit that comes out of his mouth. that's all. and i can almost predict what we'll hear him say if/after elections in iraq take place: these people love freedom... today liberty had a firm commitment to be resolute. or some other bullshit that uses the same words.

amber frey was also on the today show, again. god, i've thought i was bewildered before... imagine her bewilderment upon finding out that this man was a pathological liar who had a wife that was missing because he chopped her up into pieces! i feel sorry for her. i mean, you think you're getting to know someone, and then you learn the truth, it's like that person dies to you.

why couldn't they just give us the damn snow day? instead, the school district has mandated that we have a LATE START. this means that work starts at 10:30 today. this also means that i got a phone call at 5:55 this morning telling me to be there by nine. that i went and took a shower, came back and found a message on my phone telling me that instead school starts at 10:30 today. damn. it was too late to go back to bed, and my hair was already wet. and i am all cry-ey and depressed today because of further agonizing over the pendejo. don't worry, i have now convinced myself that obviously nothing can happen, i can hope for nothing, and it doesn't even matter if i get an explanation or an opportunity to say, "did it ever occur to you that maybe we could be friends? that maybe i just wanted someone with whom to gossip about my brother?" well my sister is home now - she is privy to our little tryst of last monday. after he left i went upstairs and she told me, from her room, not to lock the door. i replied something retarded that didn't make sense, because i had not counted on her still being awake.

it's not like i was hoping for a freaking relationship, but a tidy little clandestine affair could have been quite refreshing.
