Sweet Revenge
Today at work I received a personalized ID card & request for donation to the California Republican Party. In the mailing was a postage paid return envelope for "my donation" with a tiny memo that if I used my own stamp I'd save them valuable dollars.
On the membership ID card with my name preprinted on it were two head shots - one of Ahnuld & one of Shrub.
Whenever I get unsolicited postage paid envelopes in my credit card statements I mail them back empty in hopes that they'll stop sending the wastes of paper.
So what did I do today you ask?
I wrote on the donation card: "I am not a republican and never will be. No money for you!" Then I drew a Hitler moustache on Ahnuld and on Shrub I decorated his pea-head with devil horns, a pig nose and colonel sanders beard. I then inserted them all into the postage paid return envelope and sent them back to the RNC.
Sorry, I had to.

Freedom?
I stole this snippet of a quote from Bob (http://thecorner.typepad.com/bc/)
"...God’s freedom calls us to self-restraint, servanthood and justice for all. Indeed, the Exodus Passover is followed by another meal—of manna in the wilderness. This story, representing the very first instructions to Free Israel, stipulates that each household gather only enough, so that no one has too much, and no one too little (Ex 16:16-18). We are called to circulate the gifts of Creation among all who need them rather than seeing them concentrate in the hands of an elite. This vision of what I call “Sabbath Economics” is betrayed when freedom becomes an infinite tolerance for the affluence of a few and the poverty of many." Ched Myers
I think I like that. I wonder where we got lost

When everything you believe in.
Is fading away.
When everyone you know.
Has disappeared.
It’s probably time.
To find your coat.
Apologize.
And leave the party.

Busy Bee
This week I'll be out of the house every day & afterwork until Friday night. Warning to all my friends - sorry but I'll be hibernating on Friday night.
After spending so much time focusing on the wedding plans / details it's nice to have the free-time to think about doing other things. The backlash of course is that I've jumped head-first into the deep end of social planning. I forget that I'm an introvert and need my nesting time.
It will be fun to see all the friends we've got plans with - but I'd also like to chill at home more than one day a week.
I'm off to pay the employees..... Cheers.

My sweetie won an award today for being the best at what she does in the place where she works. YEAH for her. A cash prize means treats for me!
I love her - even if she didn't get an award. So proud.

The Quiz
My Answers to 20 Questions to a Better Relationship
eXpressive: 5/10
Practical: 5/10
Physical: 6/10
Giver: 4/10
You are a RPYT--Reserved Practical Physical Taker. This makes you a Stoic.You are intelligent, rugged, disciplined and profound. Even if you're saddled with a desk job, you are starving for the outdoors. You are very slow to warm up to people, and people are slow to warm up to you, but once they know you they never forget you. You do not get much attention from your target sex, and this means you can feel unloved or unwanted. This is not the case! You are just a hard nut to crack, and your social anxiety leaves you overlooked or outside the frame altogether. What is good for you is increments of low-interaction group activity, like sports or outdoor work. The person who can chop wood with you will melt your heart. In a long term relationship, you are loving and devoted. You are calm in a conflict until your partner presses your buttons -- it's never the problem at hand that gets under your skin, but how your partner handles it. Don't take offense! Sometimes it's just the only way your partner knows how to express things. You would never cheat, and your approach to sex is conventional and almost prudish. But sex for you is a release and a necessity of life, and you have a sense of entitlement about it that can be trouble. Make sure your partner is comfortable and satisfied -- by communicating both in and out of the bedroom -- and you will be more satisfied yourself. You may take a lot of what your partner does for granted. Make a special effort to reward and validate him/her, and you will be repaid in spades. You have nice legs.Of the 33959 people who have taken this quiz, 4.2 % are this type.
