Hmmm, chance of rain is down to 50% for Saturday. This is down from I think 80% yesterday. So hopefully, tomorrow that will drop to 20, and then -10% on Friday. Hmmm… what does it mean to have a negative chance of rain?<\/p>\n

Watched the finales of Buffy and 24 on Tivo last night, and without issuing spoilers, I am now anxiously awaiting my own on Friday. I could use a hiatus about now. Hopefully I will be done a little early on Friday and I can get into Silky’s a little earlier and get some quality drinking done in celebration of…ummm… “wrapping up the season.” Who’s with me?<\/p>\n

Congratulations to sui66iy<\/a>‘s uncle for winning his city council election<\/a>. This is ver inspiring, and its making me think I should think seriously about my aspirations<\/a> of running for office<\/a> in the future. I had this theory that I might run under the government by internet ticket. I’ll handle any routine matters myself, but anytime I need to make an important decision, I’d consult my constituents by doing an LJ poll. Who’s with me? Can I count on your support in the polls? Someone give me a baby to kiss.<\/p>\n

Bleah…feeling restless and can’t wait to get out of work today. I think I’ll do something constructive like clean the house and get party stuff ready. I’m actually feeling like I am entering the beginning of a creative phase. I hope it lasts til I have some free time, I might get some writing or artwork<\/a> done for once.<\/p>\n

Hmmm… I now notice that I don’t have a location to link to for my writing on the web. I’m going to have to fix that soon too…<\/p>\n
