I would like to start off by saying that for the highest bribing lobbyist…I will sell my vote. Either way you want me to go…I am pretty sure if you just bought me a new car…even a used car…even a motor cycle…you would probably get me on your side…just throwing that out there!
Keeping up with politics is absolutely draining. Country this…economics that…all it does is rub it in your face that there is something messed up…and it is your job to choose the right person to fix it…between 2 people?!? What the hell happened to the green party…or the independents…Nader…HELLO?? I mean not even that…can’t we just blend a party? They could be a purple party! Girls will like that! Black people like purple too…and you would get the gay people! You’re a shoe in!! Hell…we could just find some intelligent black woman to run for that party…Oprah…or how about Venus Williams…she could make Serena her VP! YEAH!
In other news…I would like to say that I am beginning (mind you this have been a gradual yet steep increase in excitement since I found out that I am leaving…so that “beginning” word is to be used lightly) to get even more exited about my internship. I have all my bills paid for while I am gone…I am moving to Bama in 3 WEEKS! My last day at Crabs is only 3 weeks away!! That’s only 9 shifts…and really only 17 days away! Wow…it has been a long 4 years coming…but PEACE! I am out! My internship starts in only one month! My first day there is October 11th or 12th.
About that…one month…wow…how much can one girl think about one thing…you would think that after hours and hours of thinking about the same thing ones brain would start to smoke…or nose would start to run….or gears would start to squeal!! SOMETHING…but no…I fall asleep at 3 and wake up at 7 and bike ride at 8 and run around town all day…very unlike me. Usually I have to take a nap just to get through the day after I woke up at 1 in the afternoon. Speaking of sleep…it is about that time…so over and out!
