Never home and other things.

So I have this house, with this dog, and this gf, and this yard, and plenty of unfinished projects. (Also, due to me falling asleep on the couch last night, plenty of dirty dishes.) With all of the travelling I've been doing recently, I'm starting to lose track of the simple things in the house. I mean, since the gf has moved in and rearranged things, I can never find out where any of the food is (the beer - I can find.) This I've just learned to deal with -- She is better at hiding things than I am. That's fine.

No, the things that I'm losing track of are much more fundamental than that. Just last night, I woke up in the middle of the night and almost went to the bathroom in my office. Oops. Try explaining that one to your boss: "Ummm nope, no idea why my laptop smells like urine. Must have been that damn dog."

Fortunately, I came to in time and made it to the bathroom. Of course, running through the house with your willie hanging out is at the very least undignified, so my ego feels like it has taken a small beating. Never fear, there's more ego where that came from, so I should be fine.

Things I'm thinking about today:

1. Operation Offset - Or, Hey, let's not call off a stupid war that gets worse every day, let's cut programs that might actually help these displaced people. Fucking morons are running this country.

2. Does it scare anybody else that Bush is appointing one of his friends to be a Supreme Court Justice? And that she has no practical experience? Yes, she's better than I expected. But seriously, the parallel to this would be me being elected President and saying, you know what, I'm going to nominate Gushee for the Supreme Court instead of Avery. Jesus. The thought of Gushee on the Supreme Court is going to keep me up tonight, I just know it.

3. My toe itches, but if I take off my shoe to itch it I am going to stink up my office. Does this happen to other people?

4. Whatever happened to Sly and the Family Stone?
