Oh GOD. You KNOW we're in trouble when the poster child of the democratic party, former civil rights activist and current East LA social worker-- my mother--says "George Bush is our only hope now." -_-

You may begin screaming now or join me in the bread line. I'm saving a spot just for you!

• 11:14 Every morning when I get into the parking structure my crappy loud car causes someone's car alarm to go off. It makes me smile every time. #
• 11:35 @detroitmike is it sad that I've known that for like AWHILE. Dude I was a huge fan of that crappy Gen X telefilm. #
• 14:10 I take it back. The Craigslisters in Portland are assholes too. #

We have all committed offenses; together, we confess these human sins:

The sins of arrogance, bigotry, cynicism, deceit, egotism flattery, greed, injustice, and jealousy. We have kept grudges, we have been lustful, malicious, and narrow-minded. We have been obstinate, possessive, quarrelsome, rancorous, and selfish. We have seen violence, weakness of will, and xenophobia. We yielded to temptation, and showed zeal for bad causes.

God, I begin to wonder what I'm doing here
With all these people
Confessing their horrible faults.
I think I did a pretty good job last year
Considering what I had to work with
And the world I had to work in;
So what am I doing here?

Well, there's no question
I could have done a little bit better
And I'm also grateful
That I had the chance to do it at all

So even though I'm not exactly sure
Who it is I should be saying this to
I want to say thank you to someone
I want to say sorry to someone
I want to say let's do it better next year
To someone.
And I'm glad there's someone to say these to
Even if I sometimes wonder.
Amen

To everyone I haven't apologized to, and to those I have, and to those I should but can't get the courage to speak up, I'm sorry. In what I've done and what I've said and what I haven't but should have, I've missed the mark this year. I've failed sometimes in being the best friend, coworker, lover, daughter and human being I could be.

I'm sorry, and thank you. Let's try again, together.

L'Shana Tova Tikateivu
May you be inscribed for a good year.

( The full month list )

General itinerary: I'll be working in the house addition for the next couple of hours, putting insulation in the ceiling of my room. After that, it's time to pack (which should take all of 10 minutes, honestly, since I've been living out of my suitcase since I moved here). And then I'm just going to chill online for the rest of the night, and probably make an LJ post with pictures of our house addition and how it's coming (this requires I hunt down the pics of how it was when we started, which will probably require me calling me Dad first).

Tomorrow, I need to do some quick clothes washing early morning, and then I'm hopping on the Metro at about 1pm to make my flight at 4:30.

• 09:23 I just saw a bumper sticker that said "Don't mess with Jesus." Really? What's he going to do? Turn the other cheek and then get crucified? #
• 12:42 Just saw a Christmas commercial. It's fucking Oct 7th. #
• 16:16 McCain loves the word "Gook" and someone said "Kill him!" re: Obama at a Palin rally. Just the OPPOSITE of what we need in the White House #
• 17:00 The last hour of work is always the slowest #
• 17:08 I'm gunna try and Twitter every five minutes during this last hour of work to make it go by faster #
• 17:16 Already I fail at making a tweet every five minutes. But like I'm at work and sometimes work junk happens, ya know? #
• 17:24 I wrote a lot these past few days. Hope I can keep the momentum going (forever) #
• 17:30 I've had to post ads on Portland's Craigslist today and the responses I've gotten are way nicer/friendlier than Detroit. #
• 17:37 I wrote two comics scripts this weekend. One I adapted from prose, the other I made up right there. I think the latter was easier. #
• 17:42 This IS making the time go by faster, but if I did this all day I'd make roughly 108 tweets a day. And they'd all be bullshit. Like this one #
• 17:49 I had a taste of the writer's life yesterday and I want more #
• 17:52 Now is the part of work where I pretend that it takes the entire last ten minutes to shut down my computer. Ciao! #
• 22:22 McCain just can't wait to start WW3 eh? #

Things I learned while shopping with Connie yesterday:

1. It only takes about three-inch heels to make me look like I'm wearing fetish wear, I'm so short. You know those cutesy shoes with uber-high heels that sometimes show up in schoolgirl and girl-next-door porn? Yeah, normal cute heels make me look like that.
   
2. You can buy a Stephanie-Brown-as-Robin costume. I wanted it, but they only had smalls.

And now:
Cowboy Mouth concert planning!

Their CA tour dates look like:
11/01/08 Los Angeles, Ca Roxy
11/06/08 Agoura Hills, Ca Canyon Club
11/07/08 Petaluma, Ca McNear's Mysti Theater
11/08/08 San Francisco, Ca Slims

Mom and I are planning to fly out for the LA show, so people in LA (jhyanmar and kikos_ai, I'm looking at you), we should meet up, have dinner and go see an awesome show!

People in SF, I'm obviously planning to go to the SF show. I'd like to get a survey of who's planning to come, and who wants me to buy their tickets. If you want me to get your ticket you need to let me know asap, and preferably paypal me the money, because they're 20 dollars each and I'll go broke otherwise.

I'm also thinking about planning a chocolate tasting birthday party. Would anyone be interested?
