The belly ring leans a little to the left, just like me. Happy Half-Nekkid Thursday!
- Mom gave me a gift card for Starbucks when she was up here. I used it last night to try a Pumpkin Spice Latte. While it didn’t taste like either Pumpkin or Spice, when I took off the lid and looked at it, the color was reminiscent of something I scooped out of the litterbox when Jesse was having intestinal problems.
- Speaking of things that look and smell foul, the Harriet Meirs nomination is getting worse at every turn. Not only does this woman have absolutely NO experience as a judge, not only has she represented the White House and Bush as a lawyer, not only does she freely admit that she would overturn abortion rights, she thinks she can get away with answering the questionnaire the Senate gave her with “No.” I’m sorry, Harriet, but those are not Yes or No questions. They are questions about your philosophy and affiliations. Answer the damn questions, bitch.
- Mom and I saw Good Night and Good Luck while she was up here this weekend. It’s short, to the point, and brilliant. I think every American should watch this and realize that we’re going through another era of McCarthyism, it’s just masquerading under the name “War On Terror.” Now where’s another Murrow to speak up for all of us “traitors to America”? Go see it NOW. And listen to this NPR interview with George Clooney and find out how brilliant he is. I had no idea.
- Rehearsals are going well, but I am tired. I wake up at 7 to give the cat his shot and don’t get back to bed until 1 AM. I am too old for this work one full-time job then go into rehearsal for five hours shit. Good thing I’m getting paid. And that I’m taking tomorrow night off.
- My ten-year high school reunion is Thanksgiving weekend: a dinner-dance at the town fire hall. Oh, Western PA idea of formal occasions, how I haven’t missed thee. Julie will not be attending, due to rehearsals for an off-Broadway play. That sounds important, doesn’t it?
