Seems like an election results party would be a completely appropriate place to write a poly sci paper.

Have you been introduced to my ability to concentrate? ;)

It has nothing to do with Chris or Thurston but I have an overnight with some greyhounds in Seal Beach, so I'm a no.

Alas, I have to go view election results with work people. I've been neglecting my networking duties.

Well, since nobody else is coming... iSm, we're still happy to have you. But if you decide you don't want to come tomorrow, would you please let us know tonight? We do need to do some cleaning and prep, but if it'll just be the two of us we will probably stay living in squalor.

I'll be celebrating the fact that this ridiculous election is finally over. I will toast an end to the horrible and intrusive campaign ads and will welcome back friends on both sides from the brink of political insanity.

I can't even sleep right now, I feel like I'm going to throw up over the Prop 8 thing. To feel the hatred of half of the members of your state directed at a core part of your being.... I've just never felt the "bubble of tolerance" that I've lived in for so long dissipate so clearly. I haven't been this horrified since... well.... the death of Matthew Shepard, really.

Yeah I'm all melodramatic, but it is truly affecting me. I would love to go into a Mormon church with a bullhorn and scream at them till they come and arrest me.

<hugs> Cherny.

innerSpaceman 11-03-2008 10:51 PM

oh, i can't abide the thought of squalor being cleaned just for me.

So ..... sigh, no .... I've actually been invited to a big Obama bash and I think I'll go to that. It is bound to be high energy and happy, and maybe that will be best, even though the presidential election is really an afterthought with me.


Sorry the arugula party didn't work out. It's so hard for people to go out on school nights.




Apologies for getting back to you so late. I just got back from seeing W. (Rather a mess of a film, and seeing the baboon gone from office at last leaves me more depressed than ecstatic after seeing Brolin's portrayal in this film. What a wretched era.)

Well, get out your bullhorn, baby, cause if it passes I'll be at Santa Monica and San Vicente tomorrow, marching towards the Mormon Temple in Westwood.

If I can get a couple thousand friends to join me, that is.
