allrighty, i would imagine that most people who read this allready know but for posterity sakes i feel i should update this journal and explain my actions
As of earlier this evening Sonya and i are no longer together it pains me to do this but it is something that i am doing for the good of both of us and for our own health
the state that we had been in the the recent months was not what you could call a mutually beneficial arrangement and the affections had become a rather one sided affair
this choice that was a long time in the making and i feel very sad that it has come to this
i am allright for now
i am not a miserable puddle of emo, this was my choice and i did what i feel i had to do
it was the mature and responsible choice and i know that it will in the end lead to better things for both sonya and myself
that said i do not harbor any ill will to her and quite the opposite still love her quite strongly its just that at this time she is unable to to be there for me emotionally just asi am not able to be there for her geographically
whether this changes in the future who can tell i do not claim to see the skein that has been woven before me, that is for the eyes of odin and the wyrds
anyways i thought i should post this
i did
i am done now |

allrighty this is the first time since a while that i have decided to post anything of genuine content onto this here journal
i have come to a decision i had started the contemplations and musings of this over my little xmas vacation and have come to a conclusion
it looks like i will not be following through with going to WSU, the longer i spend time here the more departments are being cut the less reason i have to remain in this town
now do not mistake me i do enjoy my life out here i am living and all is well, but i do not feel like i am thriving out here much i generally work too much come home tired and broken and not wanting to progress terribly much out my front door
i have talked with My room mates tim and tina whom are by far my closest friends out here and they understand my reasoning
the planis this i am signing the lease for one more year out here in which i plan to work full time to get my ducks in order pay people back whom i need to still (i still havent forgoten and feel bad its taken so long to do so) i am going to start house and apartment hunting in the bremerton area and look for a cheap place to hang my hat (poulsbo is to expensive and kingston is too remote) i will be living in pullman until next may at the very latest (if i can get my ducks in a row i will totally sublet it earlier than that) but i do not feel i would like to have another winter in pullman, with luck i can transfer to B&N in silverdale if not i will be making additional trips westside so that i can job hunt but that is not here nor there at the moment i realize that this mayt seem like a long ways off for some but its working on a realistic and conderate time frame considering i do not want to leave my current roomates in the lurch trying to find a replacement for me by march when the new lease has to be signed
it all comes down to this, this area while is nice and fun, is not my home, my home is between the mountains and bays and canals, its around the woods and streams and people whom i hold so dear to my heart. i walk to help my mind process thing to gain some comfort from nature around me and i find no solace in the manicured wheat fields that stretch to the deep desert that is the landscape of this dreary place
and so it is decided atleast for now, we havent broken it to our third roomate yet but i am going to give him more than enough time to figure out where he needs to be when the time comes so it doesn't weigh on my conscience much
anywho just wanted to fill in those of you still reading these things and to tell you i am not out here for ever i will come home, it will be interesting to see what home i build for myself whence i get there |

well i guess i should finally put up some update horray for that
mostly i am posting because for some gods awful reason i am feeling terribly awake and have decided that i should atleast try to be communiative seeing as i have spent most of my free time playing castle age on facebook, wowsers its a time waster!
well lets see what have i really been up too as of late
well i haave been working a great deal which i suppose is a good thing because taking my vacation put me in the damn poorhouse and am still crawling my way out of that
thanksgiving actually went really well for me this year
instead of going home or going to a friends place or anyhting like that me tim and tina decided to cook our own thanksgiving, going for a mildly alternative style seeing as we were only serving three people and i doubted that we would need a whole bird
it ended up still that we cooked portions enough for a good 8 people even after we ate ourselves almost sick, i was responsible for the stuffing, which we decided to go for a crushed walnut and cuscus stuffing that turned out terrific and i also took care of making the white wine gravy which was fabulous and then because i am the resident lush (i drink 5 times more than any of my room mates) i also made the sangria which was a first for me it was really easy and i have to say a whole lot of fun. tim had made the turkey which was breaded turkey breat cutlets with an apple balsamic salad piled on top of it and serve on top of the gravy, tina had made the salads cornbread and this absolutely mind blowing cranberry relish stuff that i ate until my brains exploded
well that was thanks giving
more recently i have been dealing with a weird occurance that surprised everyone around, that fact that for the most part i have been in a really good mood which really didnt make sense because work especially for me can be especially grueling because our cafe is just so damned busy on top of my responsibilities as a trainer and supervisor but as a pleasent treat for everyone i have been thriving with a flippant and fun attitude as of late
also i have been working on my communication list for poor old ben trying to get in contact with people and remind people to do stuff he sends me letters with instructions and bad jokes
i really need to send him a letter myself especially since i dont have any money to put on his phone card
and by the was if anyone reading this actually wants to get in contact with the poor old crow please please please!!! do so his adress is
Benjamin W Amdal 326362
Cedar C 12
Washington Corrections Center
PO box 900
Shelton, Wa 98584
he really does miss everyone verry terribly and i am sure that he would like to hear from any of you
and whilst i am on this note SARAH!!! you and jon need to get your forms filled out and sent in so you can visit the poor bastard, i was able to and i live a good four hundred miles away!
do it do it now and send him a letter while your at it its almost Christmas he needs one
right at the moment i am listening to the newest assemblage 23 album and i gotta say that dude still kicks ass it even has a track that was remixed by kmdfm! few in this list will recognise the significance of that though.... sad oh well
oh was gifted with assasins creed one last week because of the blackfriday sale and additional sales happening and i must say
that game is holy amazingi mean i have actually gotten to kill historic figures from the second crusade!!! the lord doctor of the knights hospitaler lord regent of jerusalem, its freegan awsome i think the end is killing robaun de sade the that time lord of the knights templar!!! how awsome is that not only that but the look of the game the face that they have actually replicated what acient Acre Damascus and Jerusalem looked like down to how they were freaking laid out (gotta love the Saracen penchant for keeping records)
and through liberal aplplication of history books i have figured out the the game takes place in September of 1191 based on the fact that it takes place whilst King richard and Saladin were on the marcj to meet for battle, i am seriously geeking oout about this game its too well made
anywho i have made a long enough rant catch you all later |

so today was a day of hell i was supposed to work a nice cushy Monday six and a half hours in convenience stocking stuff working on our inventory generally having a lax day
but then it got started ten minutes after getting to work shit hits the fan as we have four call ins and a no show and half our crew is stressed to the point of sickness over their midterms so low and behold my nice cushy day becomes a nine and a half hour meat grinder being in the building for a total of ten and a half hours.... needless to say i was not fucking amused
but that's all right now as this day draws to a close i now have only three shifts left to work only three shifts!!! and then my epic vacation of win!!!!
very busy vacation but it shall be a good one!!! i demand it to be so!
this has me excited and happy all over the place |

so i am still showing signs of life
i am alive
and fairly comfortable right now it has cooled down a lot in pullman as fall sets in more
it makes me very busy at work today was the first day in the lower fifties in the past six months or so so everyone and their cousin was in ordering hot chocolate and mochas and the like
that and my boss hurting her wrist has got me working bookoo more
going to go bowling again with the cafe folks
probably going to get a bit sauced before hand (less expensive that way) besides the fact that when tina's best bud megan came into town for a couplke days she gifted unto me a 3/4 full JD a 3/4 full SoCo and an un opened bottle of grey goose so i gots me a healthy amount of boozes again
woohoo payday tomorrow, not so woohoo rent due tomorrow sorta sucks that rent is due as soon as i get money but its life
i have completely finished the dresden files so now i am searching around for my next stack of books to devourtrying out some james rowling books at the moment not bad but its not captivated me or anything
oh yes and have been frothing at the mouth fanning about the news from the warhammer 40k world
new space wolves models (which means little to ya'all so i will elaborate) the space wolves are like s-pace vikings with fangs and power armor really fucking awesome and all sorts of violent
new codex for the tyranid which means one of my armies is going to get a face lift and new rules so once january rolls around that should be interesting
and they are also making an actual warhammer 40k movie, yeah its about the ultra marines but that shit happens
anywho just wanted to pop in and say stuff..... ..... ..... STUFF!

you know i really don't have anything to write about but i want to write anyways
as i look over what i do with what little spare time i manage i realize something
i really like the word eclectic
its a great way to describe my hobbies my tastes my sense of fashion and varying disciplines of skills and knowledges i have come about to
it is a great word that describes a great deal about me yet has the wonderful ambiguity of not actually telling you anything specific
another wonderful word is eccentric yet again a wonderful word that could describe myself, unfortunately not too well though because it is generally accepted that eccentric is the title bestowed to those whom are both crazy as well as wealthy. i on the other hand seem only to fit the prior of these requirements.... oh well maybe someday i will be comfortable enough to be eccentric
oh and by the by it appears that i will be in town (as in the kitsap area town) for the entirety of the last week of October pretty much the 23rd to November 1st or second. now i know i have plans on the 25th for robins wedding and the 29th for me and sonita's 2nd year anniversary so if you have ideas or plans from hanging out to lunch to Halloween gimme a ring
anywhom the stated purpose of this blog has been finished so too sahll this post |

so i think i might be cranky
i think i have been for a bit now
medical problems aside because i cant do shit about them now being that i have no insurance
though constant pain is a great way to make my mood off
i feel that i have been unusually short tempered as of late
fortunately i think i have avoided really venting this on anyone
i think it is mainly to do with the fact that i am not really happy at them moment
there are things that make me feel discontent
mind you there isn't too much i can do about it
i have small issues popping up that are just stacking up to make me generally a cranky old bastard
one is work, i am given the responsibility of a trainer i have a lot on my plate there but i get paid minimum wage and my boss has yet to give me the increased job title that would be fitting my responsibilities and accomplishments, i think this is partly due to my bosses boss, whom is in fact a bit close minded my boss had to fight to get me hired because her boss had off the bat dismissed me since i had long hair, she has repeatedly put christian music on the company play list despite the fact the several people have complained about it and i feel the in general the higher ups within our local branch are dismissive because i am a male in a traditionally female dominated position
that is my thoughts on that
i am also a bit chaffing about some people being a bit snobby to me
these are people whom i see and interact with every day and at least with some of them i am well aware of the fat that they are smarter than me. it is not that hard, though i am not an idiot i am by no means a genius nor would i consider myself too far ahead of the curb. but i see n reason why this gives someone grounds to look and talk down to me like i wouldn't understand them as it was. i find it vexing but so far i have been letting it slide because i dont think they are really aware that they are talking down to me
also then i have more gripe
i just love seeing people be happy, its great, but what i do not like is being surrounded by happy content people in love when i am not happy and content it has been almost months since i have seen my girlfriend and i miss her terribly
i feel like less and less i even get to talk to her on the phone
and i feel like the more i try to get in contact with her the more i am just bothering her
it is not indeed not a happy feeling for me
my coworker put her hand on my shoulder the other day and i physically startled, i pondered why i had jumped for a bit and then i realized why, it had been so long since a persona had physically touched me that i hard forgotten what initially being touched felt like. it sounds dramatic but it is honestly what i realized had happened
i mean i do not hate my life
i do actually like my job despite its breakneck fast pace and other problems i have some real good coworkers whom i enjoy being around and i like being able to work with coffee but not worry about it getting too slow
i love spending time around my roommates and my friends around here mind you i have nowhere near as many out here as i did back in kitsap but that's a given
i do have fun and its mostly my moments of solitude during the night where i feel the most of my melancholy
i have been reading a lot of Jim Butcher as of late in the little over a month since picking them up i have read 7 of the Dresden file books
i find the Character of Harry Dresden really easy to relate to, there are several things he has in common with myself and his sense of humor appeals greatly to me
overall i say they are damned good books
anywho i have probably written such a big post no one is going to really want to read it
i have mostly been using this to vent
catch ye later |

so yesterday it was announced that Disney has purchased Marvel Comics for the rough sum of 4 billion big ones, wow
so thoughts that wolverine is now micky mouses bitch aside
it makes an entertainment titan battle
Warner brothers has been long standing owners of DC comics and now their arch rival has the rights to the biggest competition in the comic industry
i find the situation to very odd
sorta silly
and more than a little frightening
watch now the next x-men movie is going to burst into kids musical for no fisking reason |

[Aug. 31st, 2009|11:01 pm] |
so in the past month i have read six books by Jim butcher
the Dresden files they are freaking awesome and its gonna suck because i have about three or four left till i am caught up with the series and ones that happens i get to play the waiting game again
i did that with Jordan i did that with Hamilton hell i did that with Teirnyn i fucking hate the waiting game!!!!!
on the bright side they are vastly entertaining
also i have seen Nathan Fillian riding on top of a bus dressed as a superhero singing whilst he stops Duki housers evil plots Dr. Horrible's Sing along Blog is fucking great
haven't had much of a life as of late
boss has me on 40 hours and i otherwise am spent rehabilitating from work doing laundry or working on models i am a total nerd and i have no excuse to give
have been personally angsty a bit as of late but hopefully with the end of august i can put myself into a more stable shape
on the darker side of things i need to remember to get to Spokane in the next couple weeks and get myself fitted for the tux for October
oh hurray my brother robins second marriage and its going to be a big white wedding i get to go and spend time around the family!!!!! which is for me probably going to consist of hanging around with my mother and grandpa chamberlin since i always feel so out of place with the johnsons, i mean they are your super lutheran suburbanites whom cannot grasp the wonderful concepts of alternative life styles fashions non monotheistic religions liberal politics wide array acceptance nerdy-ness and many other things that define me. i mean i have barely come out of the broom closet to my mother and biological father much less the older folks. Grandpa Chamberlin is different A: despite the fact that he on occasion scares the hell out of me he is always quite accepting of the fact that i am the odd grandson and B: we find great deal of common interest in history and all sorts fun subjects i mean he works in a freeking museum!!!!.
that brings about another fun factoid this october will be the first time that my biological dad Mark and Grandpa Chamberlin will have been in the same town in about 14 years much less be in the same building or freaking ROOM this is a fucking powder keg folks and i have no fucking clue what will happen...... FUCK
also robin wants me to cut my air for his wedding...... hmmm.... ummmm..... FUCK HIM
he can deal with having a darker weird and pagan brother i might just have to get myself i nice silver hammer to go with the tux for the occasion (as in a thors hammer medallion a come symbol of the Asutru {norse pagan} faith)
yeah looking forward to that..... yeah
and just so you know i miss you too Abby it has been forever and a half and i feel like a shit friend for not having dropped you a line or a message
and Jaime thanks for the digital hugs sent i appreciate them alot i hear you and Erin are gunna be making it ceremonial way to go Girl!
Sarah thank you for the stories and goodness even when they get a bit racy
and most of all thank you for loving me Sonya i really would have no clue what i would do without you |

you know its silly you see the years progress on this blog
you see me flow from apathetic to jubilant and then to morose
veritable bipolar kaleidoscope
but you know some things still stay constant
i am still playing some camp counselor to people who cant get their emotion baggage ready for checkout
someone breaks up with someone to see someone else
someone entirely out of those previously mentioned someones is now angry because that someone feels the other someone is betrayed so the original someone now feels bad because at least someone is angry at them
if that makes any sense to you, you win a special prize
that ranting aside other than a general update
still alive
working a lot
sleeping not enough
not getting to talk to sonya enough
not getting paid enough
and still having tme to enjoy my life
i live
here i stand
on a side note i have as of an hour or so ago finally viewed Dr. Horrible's Sing along Blog and i have to say Joss wheaden has out done himself with that one it is freaking great
also Sarah you need to write more i have a need to read something that makes me go "awwww inside" get back into your mangas so you can write more fics or get more done on original stories or i shall destroy you |

well this is me posting again just waiting for sonita to get online as she said she would
i have been finding alot of new musics stuffs that i really like
its sorta sad because the one person whom i think would appreciate this the most is the one that i cant get this music too
its little things like this that make me miss my best friend the most
sharing insane new music walking around at extremely weird hours of the night or just chilling out and talking till four am regardless of work being needed done the next day
the art projects and the wranting about future music works
it really is hard for me to get any of the really to any cohesive block or anything
i dont have him around and it feels like a big ugly hole in my life
really he is alot closer to me than any of my full or legal brothers, he knows me better than almost anyone intuitively knowing my moods and knowing when things bothered me before i even get the chance to realize it myself
it hurts me..... a lot actually
So i went walking this evening just after dusk
walking in the familiar pattern that i know as my wanderlust
looking around the town and following the rythem of the air around me
it took me to the edge of town
a halfworld where the streetlights end and create a wall of blackness beyond
it was like the border of my world
outside it was only darkness with a few dots of farmhouses in the distance
like stars sparkling i the void of space
the sky was a golden grey of the town lights hitting clouds
breached occasionally by a monochromatic flash of lightning
the sotrm had gathered just around the outskirts of the town
as if to reinforce the end of my little world out here
so i silently walked the edge of this little world
watching the flashes that show a white landscape of rolling hills
like a camera flash burning the image in my minds eye
While pacing the border of light and blackness i note my sorroundings
this town is so quiet this time of year
the standard cacophony of post-adolescent jubilation suspended for a brief stint of high summer
it built on the isolated feeling of my little world
i found a hill top and watched the lighting dance around the horizon
after musing my own thoughts for a respectful time given my mood
i make my way on a different path towards my home
along a labyrinth of suburban style homes that dominate this part of town
in a twist of roads and moderate houses
slowly the rest of the world filters in
the ghostly sounds of laughter from in houses or soft conversations from decks
cars make slow passes around me as i walk down the roads not yet familliar to my feet
the storm finally deems to breach the towns perimeter and start to obscure the bright stars above
as i round roads i find myself near on the path to home
and see my friends threw our living room window
there is a comfortable reminiscence to the lot of us sitting around watching movies on the couches
as a security blanket to a young child
a bubble of insolation to my melancholy, a distraction form internalization
greeted by a trio of felines as i open the door
i leave my thoughts to be thought later
and then i come into my room late at night and my brain thinks too much
this i wrote that all out alot to get off my brain and chest .... wondering when sonya is gunna call
take initiative time i guess |

okay i have to post this simply to rant away
i just real possibly the last chapter of xxxholic and it has me totally tweaking in fan nerdiness in a way that is unbecoming of a vikings such as myself
it has a totally rocked my socks beyond mere words and since i know that some few on this list actually have interest in it i shant speak any more of it
i like potatoes did ya'all know that
i have recently fallen in love with these wonderful little packets of mashed potatoes that make either a side dish for four people or a single serving entree style they cost about a dollar probly round 85 cents in idaho and they are really rather marvelous
hooray i got paid as of 41 minutes ago that means i can buy breakfast tommorow and payback my coworker for buying breakfast the other day
this is rather good and makes me happy
i look forward not to the working of tomorrow i must do
but atleast busy busy is better than dead slow and bored
and suddenly i noticed the temperature just hoped up like ten degrees in my room and i am suddenly feeling very warm must be hot flashes and i am going the menopause heh heheheh
garsh nabbit and once again i am staying up later than i should so that i can talk to sonita but i deem that that is very much more worth it
and i can sleep plenty once i am dead
oh yeah i have just today discovered an amusing band named creep show they are a hellbilly band with a fantasic female vocalist hellbilly if i am remembering the style right is sorta like if you mixed elvis style instrumentals with rock lyrics about zombies and the macabre
anyways sonita calls i go now |

[Dec. 21st, 2008|12:59 am] |
well i realize that it has been some time since my last post of any real content
so i figure i will get some of the basics out and see if this little boost of energery is
enough for me to post anything in depth
well i cant remember if i posted this earlier and i cant be buggered to actually check but i have since october been working at the Bookie, that is the student book corporation, to be specific i am a full time barrista in the barnes and noble cafe in the bookie
it really isnt a bad gig, close to home get plenty of hours and i have a boss who looks out for me and atleast a good group of the crew that i get along dandy with
on a side note i am actually contractually obligated not to shit talk my job on my blog or any other blogging service so if i talk about a certain coffee shop you will know what i speak of
Pull man is a lovely 14 degrees outside and is currently at about a foot and a half of snow we are due in for another snow storm within an hour or two that is supposedly staying for a week
after the past week or so of walking to work through the snow and shlepping my way back i feel pretty okay with this, we have a large supply of cocoa and ramen here so we can hang out pretty peachy
of recent books i have read lately i must say Only in Death by Dan Abnett is the first book i have read in my entire life that has ever in all seriousness made me cry
and if you feel that you would like to know more about the book series that i am speaking about known as the Gaunts Ghosts book series i heartily recommend you pick up The Founding which is the first of the series an amazingly written book series by an entire too talented vindictive maniacal genius of a writer
find it in the science fiction section next to many other warhammer/40k novels
Sonya and I are still together we are still bearing with the distance though the time marches steadily nearer as to the distance not being a factor, and then we will have to find all new reasons to get cranky at each other :)
i have recently seen what happens when fog freezes and i must say it is quite beautiful most unfortunate that it only happens when experiencing 100 percent humidity followed immediately by single digit temperatures
i also realize how much i really don't respect people who strive to be in sororities and can usually recognize them by their drink selection and their vacant little faces, i realize that yes i am in not too much better a position to judge them but i feel if the majority of our society is going to rest in the hands of nit wits i have to say something even it is to the small audience of this current venue.
my dreams have been.... amazingly boring to the point where no actual dream comes to mind
this might be because i don't get too much sleep on the weekdays and it might also be the fact that my creative muscle has actually found sufficient outlet in my weekly routine of either dungeons and dragons or dark heresy, which of course is a completely different tangent all together but i don't think i will bore you with the imaginary adventures of my and my cohorts adventures through the imperium tonight
i also realize that i have become quite fascinated with the large somewhat oddly shaped icicles that have formed outside my bedroom window watching their progress as the continue to grow has bee quite a soothing routine for me
on a nerdier note i must submit to anyone what reads the manga of Bleach and is current with this weeks chapter published by Shounen Jump, if you are in America that means the fun mildly illegitimate scans and fan translations, i am totally and unimaginably geeking out!!!!!! this weeks chapter has me flailing arms as fast as i can manage.
oh yes current book Scourge the Heretic by Sandy mitchell good read mind you you wont understand shit if your not a 40k nerd like me but its good reading, oh yes and the Guants ghosts books you dont have to be a 40k nerdy to read these books they are amazing and rather self explanitory
anyways i love you all
talk at ya later |

WARNING THIS IS A POLITICAL RANT
EVERYONE WHO READS THIS JOURNAL KNOWS I AM A STARK RAVING LIBERAL DEMOCRAT
IF RANTING AND KNOCKING ON YOUR POLITICAL BELIEFS OFFENDS YOU, THEN DONT READ
OR READ DO IT YOU MIGHT LEARN SOMETHING
OR I WILL JUST OFFEND YOU (which keeping in my true character really doesn't bother me to offend people that much) REGARDLESS YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
DOOM DOOM DOOM....... GO NOW!
so i decided to get caught back up with some political stuff and was both pleased and offended and annoyed by what i found
as usual i trust my Msnbc since it is the news outlet i have been relying upon sonce i realized i was interested in politics and the world in general
it was nice to hear that obama is according to the most recent electoral forecasts in possibly a FAR lead considering the ohio is no longer dead locked for the republicans and Florida as well which if anyone remembers were the states that sealed the deal for GW
that made me somewhat happy as my liberal ways and preference to keep the wellfaire system in continued exhistence (considering thats the reason i was able to eat growing up)
It appears that with the economic crisis, which is simply the PC term for coming of the second depression, a large amount of voters in economically sensitive states i.e. michigan ohio florida and more are feeling that they can no longer trust the republican party to operate in the good of the whole nation (like getting economically fucked in the ass for eight years wasnt a clue enough)
personally i think people were just being idiots why in the world a poor farmer believes that tax breaks for only the richest percent of our population would make their plight easier is beyond my ken
or peoples beleifs that the democrats are planning to take their guns away, when the supreme court already said no one can do that, so good ole joe dirt mccreedy who is standing in a wellfare line and praying the mccain gets elected so he can keep his shot gun really just needs to lean how to read something other than dr. sues and maybe actually find out that he has unalienable rights (which have nothing to do with the x-files) and yes as much as i find distaste in it he has the unalienable right to bear arms, that being until he becomes a convicted felon.. then he can just sit and spin, cuz then his political opinion doesnt matter he cant vote
Another thing i have discovered..... Sarah Palin is a fucking retard
she accuses Obama of "paling around with terrorists" that ladies and gentle folks is a direct quote
she is referencing Barrack Obamma's association with former political extremist Bill Ayers who founded a violent protest group known as the Weather Underground back during the Vietnam war
this group was held responsible for a number of small bombings during the Vietnam war
Barrack's association with this man is simple they live in the same neighborhood in chicago when Barrack was running for his first office in 1990 Ayers as one of the more distinguished in the area held a meet the candidate at his home. oh that and they served on the same charity board once. Ayers has long since removed himself and renounced extremist behaviors and ideals.
when Ayers was an extremist Obamma was on 8 for fuck sakes!!!
there inst even any conclusive evidence to show that barrack and Ayers are even friends much less a erroneous charge of Obamma paling around with him.
of course the republican party says nothing about John McCain's good old friend and campaign contributer who was convicted of fraud whom McCain even helped with a Disreputable dealing
and then there is another thing with the country and also the world slowly drowning in economic strife all the candidates, well almost all the candidates, have said that they are going to have to hold off on some of their earlier campaign promises until we can stabilize our own damn economy (two foreign wars and a truck load of unregulated oil tycoons can do that to an economy) the candidates are talking about reasonable setbacks such as not being able to double foreign aid and the such even Senator McCain is in agreement there
what does our good ole Alaskan governor says "We aren't cutting anything" nope nothing instead she is going t be either A: unrealistic and a liar, or the even better option of B:spend this country into deeper debt doing stupid shit like buying crosses for public schools and gasoline to burn down abortion clinics (okaY i admit i am going a bit far on that but GODSDAMMIT THIS IS MY RANT!!!)
This and the whole thing of her daughter, Yes she and her daughter (though i doubt the daughter had any say whatsoever) made the choice to keep her baby. did anyone see that word i just used there? did you see it? well i will give you the hint.... the word i am talking about, it startes with a C, still dont know what it is??? well lets see i guess i could give another hint. The second part of the word is Hoice what does that spell???? choice? choice!! very good!! CHOICE FUCKING CHOICE the very godsdamned thing that Sarah Palin seeks to take away from every other woman be she underaged or not in this entire country. What makes her so godsdamned special to think that she is allowed to choose when she doesnt want anyone to else too
just because her god went and got corpsed does not give her the right to establish rules that every other woman has to live by just like its no business to a bunch of male republican asshats in washington what a woman does with her own gods damned body
okay yeah gunna bring it down and stop frothing at the mouth
yes calm
good
relaxed
cuz you know what?
voter turnout for this election is predicted at an alltime high the younger demographic of America wants to be heard and do you want to know what they want?
change bitches, (probably a beer or two as well)
well that was a good sized purge of my thoughts
sorry i work for a super right wing christian republican
so i dont get to rant like i used to
i miss being a damned mouthy opinionated barrista |
