So THERE

My two favorite subjects - music and politics - wrapped up in one beautiful headline. Accomplished without ANY support from mainstream country radio or TV, which is, to my knowledge, unprecedented.

FUTK and all like-minded rednecks, bullies and ignorants.

I said it in 2003 and I'll say it again - Dixie Chicks for President!

Dude

Today was kinda one of Those Days - mostly just frustrating. From dropping and breaking my eyeshadow this morning, to wasting time on pointless bullshit at work to the construction traffic on the way home - it was just one of Those Days, ya know? So it was great when I turn on the tube and catch a preview of tomorrow's episode of Dr. Phil, which evidently is about slacker adults who refuse to grow up and move out of their parents' homes. And one such loser, in this preview, expresses his trepidation about appearing on the show in what is now my new favorite phrase:

"It harshes my mellow".

Dude, that is totally awesome.

I'm Baa-aa-ck

Wow, that took a while.

So here I am in Seattle! It took for-EVER (or so it seemed) to get online at home and finally have the time to surf the 'net for fun stuff, begin catching up on emails, send photos from my last days in Santa Fe, etc.

And much to my chagrin do I find one of my sistas STILL has not updated any of her three blogs!!! Oy. Well, at least now I also have hers and my other sista's myspace domains, where I stumbled upon the following little tidbit about me.

The deal is, you click on the one photo that speaks to you most at that moment, and the above was my choice. Followed closely by this one:

Pretty kewl, huh!

Still need to get around to posting photos - had a great couple of send-offs in Santa Fe! And I really want to find some places to go hiking in or near Seattle. Oh, and I need to find some good whale-watching info for when my Dad comes to visit in the fall. Need to locate a nearby Walgreens.....

Ok, I just got back online today! All in due time.
