I had a seizure on Saturday and did a job on my tongue. I bit the whole left side of it and it was all bloody and yucky. The thing about cuts on your tongue is that they hurt like hell as they heal. It's incredibly painful. And to top it off, you are really limited in your food choices because you can only chew with half your mouth - so nothing of a crunchy nature at all - and there are open wounds in your mouth - so nothing spicy or salty.

Also, it's all blown up in my mouth and makes my talking seem mush-mouthed. I sound like an idiot.

...*pout*...
It hurts.

Apparently the Brits agree with me.

I have calmed down quite a bit since my last post, and now my question is "No, seriously, what are you people thinking?" I'm going to ignore the whole war-in-Iraq thing momentarily and focus in on the stuff that will affect us from day to day.

With a Republican majority in the House, the Senate, and the White House, everyone left of Zell Miller is shot to shit. There will be at least one and potentially as many as three seats in the Supreme Court up for grabs within the next four years. The Democrats (and anyone who categorizes themselves as liberals) are well and truly fucked.

I'm sorry. Very unladylike language.

Eleven states voted to outlaw gay marriage - and in some cases, not only gay marriage but civil unions or domestic rights as well. Goodbye gay rights. Bush is ardently pro-life. Let's see what happens when he appoints a highly conservative Supreme Court Justice and somebody decides to revisit Roe v. Wade. Whether I want to admit it or not, there is some basis for the argument that abortion should be a states' rights issue.

Goodbye reformed health care. Hello bigger budget deficit.

I don't want to be here anymore.

OH! And a brief note on the whole issue of terrorism... THE WAR ON IRAQ IS NOT THE SAME AS THE WAR ON TERRORISM. Wake up and smell the mocha, people.

Why is 51% of America SO. FUCKING. STUPID.
