My Life These Days

I got my tooth fixed. This temporary crown feels like a wad of gum. I don't much care for it. I'm just glad the worst is over, though.

I went to my first Kucinich meeting the other night. There were some cool people there, but not many showed up. Doing it has made me feel energized, I must say. I am absolutely driven to make a difference. I probably spend more time than I should on the internets reading about election stuff. It's really interesting to learn about. I'm really feeling motivated to dive in head first. I'm thinking about trying to be a delegate. Crazy, huh? In this instance, it's really fortunate I live in such a conservative area. I'm not likely to have much competition.

I can't really explain what's come over me. I guess just learning about how crooked this country is from the top to the bottom has instilled this urgency in me. I feel like if I don't do it, who will? I know Kucinich isn't for everyone. I know he's a long shot. I know he's "unelectable". But he's someone I really believe in. And all the people saying he can't win just makes me all the more determined. Mainstream media shutting him out, censoring him, and discounting him makes me very determined. I have me some of that German blood, after all.

I've kind of been on a one-track kick lately, and I apologize to those of you who are bored. But if you're bored you're probably not reading this. Ha ha. Seriously, I thought about making a special blog for political rants, but have decided against it. This is me, for better or worse.
