dental day

today i have to see the dentist because a part of a molar broke yesterday. in my gum. gross. the dreaded "crack" that sounds so very loud b/c it's so close to the ear. so yeah, dentist appointment at 3:30 and, no matter how much i'm not looking forward to being told how horrible my teeth are, i'll pretend to really enjoy being there b/c it would be shite to have a job where you are the most dreaded person to see.
i just spent a moment looking at google images of tooth decay, to prove to myself that i've not the worst teeth in the world. and it would help if my adult tooth in the front right of my mouth would finally grow in and i wouldn't look so much like an old hag. well, at least an old hag with a tooth half-grown in.
abbey got a WOW award today at school, which i'll post a picture of when i get one. she is ADORABLE and i'm so lucky that i'm her mom.
THREE WEEKS TODAY of no smoking. and i'll celebrate that how? with oriental flavor ramen noodles (13 cents!) and a trip to the dentist.
oh, and that little bastard groundhog saw his shadow...another six weeks to go.

i listened to nick coleman's show on air america minnesota this morning (am 950, from 7 to 9 a.m.) and there was a woman who called in to complain that the liberals have to see the other side as "humans, not THOSE people." well you know what? i'm really fucking tired of the liberals being responsible for making concessions to end the divisiveness of the country. we're not moving more left and causing problems, the nutjobs on the far right keep moving and moving the lines around and i'm done being apologetic for the country being divided; and nick coleman is right, we're not angry enough, by any means. and screw you righties who think that we're less moral, who think that it's our fucking job to make amends, b/c we've made enough concessions -- my daughter's school is making concessions, my mom will probably lose her minnesota care (and that's one woman you DON'T want missing her medication) and i'm tired of the liberals being the stupid, spineless doormats for the "moral" majority. when the fuck are we finally going to take the streets and demand that this corrupt shit stop? when will the scary righties be held to the same standard that we are? if we complain about anything, it's "partisan bickering," but when they do it? oh, then it's totally fine. well screw you, b/c if we get blasted for one thing, they should too. a culture of life...indeed. wasn't it estimated that 300 people in MN died last year b/c of health care cuts? so the right says that we need to "respect life," but then it's perfectly fine to screw those who DARE to age, who DARE to get sick? what kind of sick, Darwinian shite is that? the righties (and i don't mean ALL republicans, as even i have family members who claim to be that) care SOOOO much about life in the womb, but a big "fuck you" to anyone outside of it.
wow...all that from one nick coleman show. i like him. my rant is now done. for now.

I've got to fess up and admit that I can't stand Nick Coleman. The other day he was deriding Power Line not because of its content but because the dude who runs it blogs from work. What a waste of time is that line of thinking. I'm willing to bet there are excessively more liberals who blog from work. Even if there weren't, it's not worth it to die on that hill.

actually this a.m. mr. coleman was deriding the guys at power line not just b/c they blog from work, but mostly b/c they talk shite about dayton on a constant basis, generally just slandering him, saying he is a contribution to the psych. system of minnesota and whatnot. and actual crazy people like me take offense to humor like that.

The Powerguys' stories about Dayton come with a certain amount of substantiation. But I guess you - and Nick "The Gerbil" Coleman, for that matter - would have to READ what they wrote, right?

you're right, i should read what they wrote...but i think it's because i'm too busy actually signing my comments other than "anonymous."
