Black: Wowza Obama...

Wow, the debate is awesome! It started off as a fairly calm affair but man, do they go at each other when the going gets going. :)

I have to admit; I was fairly superficial in my feelings about Obama and Clinton. I gave her more credit mainly because she's been there and done that. She's played on the international stage and seemed very reliable in regards to her policies.

But then she lost the nomination (which is cool) and Obama stepped up.

Well, after watching the debate, I'm a full fledged supporter. Not only is he very knowledgeable about the various aspects that he's supposed to know, he's savvy and articulate. He makes excellent arguments and (as much as a politician can) answers the questions.

I'm surprised that McCain is being so weird about things. Haha...to think I considered voting for him as a Republican. But now I'm glad I know better. Yikes!

As I sit here hearing that McCain wouldn't advocate "sitting down" with the foreign leaders "without preconditions". I am appalled that anyone would believe or espouse that talking to your enemy is a bad idea. Good lord, you'd think that sticking a gun to one's head is the only way of getting shit done.

Grrrrr...

And why in the hell are we so stalwart about Israel? I just don't get it.

Gay: Relapse...

Ay yi yi...

So I've found myself back on the Meatmarkets but not as intense this time. Do I find myself spending countless hours on there when I have other stuff to do?

YUP!

Have I in turn founds tons of people I should not have an acquaitance with?

YUP!

Do I feel guilty that I've backslid?

YUP!

But have I let it throw me into a shame spiral where I started hating myself and thinking that no one wants me?

Not yet....

I think that's in part because I'm going to Chicago, to light up the town as best I can. Another part is knowing that my old boyfriend wants me back.

There's a bit of haughtiness that I can derive from that which will help bolster whatever shortcomings I have in self esteem.

Now back to the job of weaning myself from this addiction...
