He calls me. I don't call him. There is never a number to return his calls. Just messages. Of course, he's always a great time and a good friend. But you never know when he'll show up.
Maybe some of you know what I'm talking about.
TK - it's Wednesday (Mixer's Day) and Geoffrey needs his boots back.

WorkingFeel free to ignore this entry. It's just my way of venting.
Work has been so monotonous lately. I like my field, but I'm stuck on a task for a project that keeps dragging on and on and on...... I'm the lowest on the ladder in my department, so I pretty much always get the grunt work. On top of that, there is someone who gets paid way more than me and does nothing but cause frustration for everyone else. Isn't there one of those in every workplace though? It seems like they always get promoted. They need to hire an intern so someone is beneath me.

Another fun night with TK and Jeffrey. Always a good time to hang out with.

Very important plans to go to Kenmore and spend time with my cat. We've been overdue for some quality bonding and napping.

What else could I ask for?

Truth in Politics and MediaDoes anyone have additional information on the push to revive the draft? I've looked online and haven't found too much. I've also read that this is just a political ploy from the Democrats. Is the media really ignoring this issue? Who do we believe? The move to fill the draft boards is rather suspicious, but I would like to know more.

Super Tuesday EveI'd like to make a few more points:
1. If you want to work from outside the system, do that too. The MINIMUM you can do is vote. Do both. However, I don't see anyone working from outside the system. If you are, tell me how and count me in.
2. The reason we have so few options with candidates is that the younger generation doesn't vote. Politicians don't care about what younger people, who are arguably more liberal, are looking for in a candidate because this demographic group is seen as apathetic and not willing to vote. The only way to change this is to get out there and vote.
3. Maybe the democracy is working (in response to Terry). Democracy is based on the will of the majority. Face it - most of us on the e-strip are politically left of the majority of Americans.
4. If you don't vote, consider yourself voting for Bush. Republicans/Conservatives are far more unified than Democrats/Liberals, and they tend to vote more. Democrats and Independents need to vote to counter them.
If you don't care about whether abortion is legal, if there is oil drilling in the Arctic, if we continue this insane amount of military spending, or about any of the many issues that the Democrats and Republicans disagree on, then maybe it doesn't matter if you vote. But you do care. I know you do.
