So tomorrow is kaitlin's 5th birthday. I can still remember her looking like this. It is almost 6pm and I still need to go clean in the kitchen and make her cake. I'll decorate tomorrow. I hope she has a special day - I am so schlumpy right now. Hope I can pull it off. Also sad about fil being possibly ill with cancer - we won't know for awhile but he gets so depressed. :-( Happy news is that the tile guys are almost done with our new shower woohoo!

How boring am I? Don't answer that. Please. I didn't even do the dorky friday five last week. Did you vote? I normally do and care but I didn't want to support either dork for Cal governor so I didn't this time. Sue me. It was pretty interesting to see the republicans sweep up the nation. Control of the house and senate and whitehouse. An interesting statement on the current disposition of the country. Mr. Tom [refraining from calling him some deserved degrading name] Dashle pretty much said in a tv interview that the only reason this happened is because the American public is too stupid to keep more than one issue in mind at a time, blaming President Bush for keeping their minds (ie brainwashing he might as well have said!) on the war on terrorism. As if! What a dork. Ooops there I did it anyway. Oh well. I just hate how it has become about party control instead of the actual issues that affect our lives. Buttheads all of 'em. Democrats, Republicans, anybody with that good ol' boy mentality that takes precidence over how this country is run. It is NOT a club, boys! OK who am I kidding but that felt good.
