So my little girl cat has started drooling. Water, everywhere. It's not sticky or funny smelling or funny colored. She hasn't been pawing at her mouth and she doesn't go outside. But I mean this is like puddles of drool. I thought maybe it was in response to food, since she decided she was going to drip drool all over me last night as she was trying to get at the Pizza-flavored Goldfish I ate yesterday for lunch. (Shut up, yes, for lunch.) I don't have money to take her to the vet, so let's hope it's some kind of reaction to the weird weather we're having, and not to the toxic water I'm probably consuming. Mainly, I've been drinking coffee, but I've been making sure to boil and filter any water I give them. She's been acting normal otherwise, but maybe she's got a hairball coming on. (Oh, joy.)
::sigh:: It's a gorgeous day. What to do? Can't tool around in the car. Don't have money to run errands. Maybe I should just go lay on the beach while I still can, since I haven't been there all summer. Maybe I should call my elderly neighbor and offer to clean his apartment. Maybe I should go sign up for the 5pm-1am shift at Trader Joe's.
And WOW do I need to cancel cable, even though I got them to knock it down by $25. If I see one more romantic comedy, I might puke. It's actually making me think about marriage, and that just doesn't seem right. Maybe it's the insanity slowly eating my brain. I need to start exercising. Maybe that will help. If I fall asleep on this sucking void of a couch one more time, I'll probably wake up with a hunch back.
Dear god, sometimes I really wish I was a man. I'm not saying men vs. women have it "easier" but I do think I'd have a job if I was a man. People wouldn't laugh at me when I offer to do hard labour. Or when I say I'm thinking of going into plumbing or mechanics, although I'm pretty sure if, as a woman, I went into plumbing or mechanics, I could totally charge more. It's a business idea I have, I just need a bunch of hot skilled girls, like a plumber, a carpenter, an electrician, you know, just a whole team of hot chicks that like to work with their hands and get dirty. TELL me that wouldn't make money?!
Stupid business ideas... always requiring start up money. And knowledge of finances. Permits... Why is everything so damn expensive in this country? Is that the cost of our "freedom"? Consumerism? How awful.
So John Stewart from The Daily Show is going to be throwing a rally (along with Stephen Colbert) in DC Oct. 30th. I'm loving the idea of moderation. Of Rationality. Of Reason. How freaking great. What a wonderful way to live a life, and to vote.
I know a lot of people have been bad-mouthing Obama, and I'm sure he's not the greatest man to have ever walked the face of the Earth. I also know he's probably not a muslim, and if he was I wouldn't care. People seem so angry he hasn't waved a magical wand and fixed everything, but uh, does anybody out there (especially in the media) remember our LAST president? The magical wand he waved put us IN the mess we're in, at war, without oil, high prices, taxing the poor, people out of work... Shall I continue? Considering we tried to impeach the president before that for waving the OTHER kind of magical wand seems pretty stupid to me. It strikes me that it was his wife's business to deal with that, and none of our damn business. Maybe our presidents shouldn't all be married with kids. "Family values" be damned. You think half this nation has their "family values" in the right place? That they've got their priorities in order? That they play little league with their kids because they love them and want to spend time with them? No, it's so they can drink beer, hang out with other parents, and hopefully groom their kids to be the next multi-billion baseball star, dammit.
Ridiculous.
