I am heinously behind in my blogging. I apologize.

I have a 30 posts waiting around in my head to be written, so how about a mash-up?

On Halloween, we bar-hopped in costume from Scully’s to Bobo. I went as Harry Potter, after he loses his magic because it all belonged to The Big V in the first place and Our Boy Wonder is forced to conduct his life in a fashion approaching normalcy by taking his A levels. So I looked like a 19 year old boy in a tie and glasses. The Director was a hot dog. And I mean Hot. But when she and Hidey Ho switched costumes and HH came out of the bathroom with nothing underneath the dog suit but her undies, which were clearly visible through the arm holes, Swirly was forced to comment, “If all weiners looked like that, I’d be straight.” Yes, unfortunately, penises do not look like girls in underwear.

Also, The Puerto Rican was wearing an Asheville Assault (their website is down, what up?) sweatshirt and sweatpants. I wasn’t quite sure what his character choice was, since he just seemed like he was on his way home from the gym. Then, it clicked. “Are you a lesbian?” It was apparently the funniest thing he’d heard all week. He asked for a wig, and we demanded to know what self-respecting lesbian wears one of those. He told everyone he could get to stand still long enough.

I just finished listening to Lonesome Dove, A Farewell to Arms, The End, and For Whom the Bell Tolls. Awesome, Meh, Sad it’s over, and Awesome.

On Friday and Saturday I covered two years worth of dental terms, materials, and procedures in 18 hours. I am glad I don’t have to take the test yet. As it was, I felt that the class was wonderful and educational. There was no stress, and when I didn’t know something or couldn’t write fast enough to get it down, I wrote something constructive like, “Check out anatomy books from library, make photocopies.” I went through 1.5 pens. Brand new pens.

I have decided not to care about the election anymore. I was burned in 2004. I managed to convince myself that everyone who voted for W hated me personally, and that was why they voted the way they did. There was moroseness. Now, I will vote, and I will discuss the issues, and if I ever learn to talk to people on the phone without my stomach hurting, I may even volunteer for something, but I won’t care. Not even a little. My heart is icy, feel the burn.

They are learning how to turn gay sheep straight. If only they could manage that with the Republicans. I’m tired of them making normal queers look bad.

New blogs I like but won’t put on my sidebar because it’s long enough already: The Consumerist, Get Rich Slowly, Craft, Dealhack, Lifehacker, Make, Wonkette. Honorary mention cause it’s not a blog: Instructables. Yes, I realize that everyone in the known world has heard of these months, years, possibly eons ago. Can’t you just let me be?
