the election thing

...is anybody else having trouble really believing that it's over? Not believing that Obama won, I mean, but that the election is actually finished? It's been almost a week, and I'm still finding myself battling the paranoid fear that I'll turn on my TV and see McCain and Obama debating again, JUST FROM FORCE OF HABIT.

Anyway, we've got a new President-elect! Good luck to him. I'm working on my letter to his "change.gov" website, in which I will lobby him to throw aside everything he campaigned on and adopt my own modest positions. No, kidding, it'll be a friendly letter with some suggestions. ("Appoint me official weapons tester for the U.S. Government. Give me infinite ammunition and at least one of everything.")

Obama's been campaigning for two years. I'm surprised he hasn't woken up, kissed Michelle and the kids goodbye, and flown off to Pennsylvania twice this week just from force of habit...

Either that, or he gets up, yells "I DON'T HAVE TO CAMPAIGN TODAY!" and dances around in his underpants while Michelle tries to hide under the pillows.

 Tim

I second the appointment of hradzka as official weapons tester for the U.S. government. Give him infinite ammunition and at least TWO of everything.

(you know. in case one breaks. or goes boom. or needs to be co-tested)

Thirded.

He gets to test everything but nuclear weapons. Unless he can test them on the moon or something.

Dude, a few days ago after I got out of work I found myself thinking 'hmm, I have a couple hours to kill, maybe I'll head down to the Obama campaign office to volunteer'. IT'S SICK.

YOU NEED A BOOK.

A POEM EVERY DAY

The collected poems from my descent into madness year spent writing daily poems are now available from Lulu as the cheapest 330-page book they would let me make ($16.20). If that's too pricey, you can also get it from Lulu as a free download, or just click on the "a poem every day" tag to read them here. But if you did buy one, that'd be awesome.
