thank you for _________!

What we learned today: "Wars are too important to be left to the generals."
Sorry Rumsfeld, you had to go. Ironically, to me at least, it seems the elections could have turned more in the Republican's favor if he just would have stepped down a month ago. My personal opinions aside, it's hard to argue that this administration hasn't gone down in flames. Where's the leadership today? I don't care what your politics are, just tell me where the leadership is. It's non-existent.

It's still waaaay too early for Christmas. To the radio station here in town, quit playing that 24/7 Christmas music. At least wait until December. To my neighbors, take down those stupid Christmas lights. Everyone knows lights shouldn't be put up until Thanksgiving weekend. The holidays are hard enough without beginning in October. Geez!!

So I got this promotion at work and apparently I'm now on the grapevine. People I don't know are congratulating me. I knew this job was the right thing to do! Did I ever tell you that I'm a business woman? I got a fancy briefcase and a no nonsense attitude. I walk around with a little earpiece thingy talking on my cell phone. When people think I am talking to them, I look at them disdainfully because they are obviously not business people. I got a desk with drawers that lock. That's where I keep all my important business documents. Sometimes I wear my glasses at work just to make me look smarter. I'll work straight through my breaks if I feel like it, because I'm a BUSINESS WOMAN!
This is me on my way to an important place with some important business. I'm always checking my watch because I've got places to be!

I'm pretty sure we all know that ska music is the funnest to dance to and therefore ska concerts are super fun. But maybe you aren't so confident. Maybe you've been to the ska concert, and you've wanted to dance but you just didn't know how. Don't worry about it! Just let loose and follow these five simple steps. And remember, if we've learned anything from America's Next Top Model this season, always fully commit. Nothing is worse than a half-hearted ska dance.

Now I gotta go watch this documentary on drugs through history on the history channel because I'm all business.

P.S. They made a lot of movies with people smoking marijuana and getting high in the 20s and 30s. Bet you didn't know that.

P.S.S.

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

P.S.S.S. I know it should really be P.P.P.S. but I just like it better with S.

P.S.S.S.S. So it turns out in WW2 the German army was on methamphetamines and that's how they covered so much ground and never stopped, according to this documentary.
