beer, booze, and babes...
...all at 1600

so i suppose it's old news now that ashcroft was confirmed.

blah. you know how i feel about that.

BUT at the same time i think his uphill battle sends a clear warning to bush: try to stick an ass on the supreme court and you're in for a BIG FIGHT. never before in history have there been so many "nay" votes for the nominee for attorney general. that alone says something.

here is a list of the 42 who opposed the nomination. write to these senators and offer your most sincere thanks.

before i forget to mention it, california has the best two senators.

how can a state which sent both barbara boxer and dianne feinstein be bad???
posted by Crazy Karen at 9:58 PM

although it looks like ashcroft will be confirmed , many members of the opposition have put up a good fight. that is somewhat inspiring.

Barbara Boxer (my all-time favorite senator) did a wooooonderful presentation. I hope C-span replays it...

barbara is my hero!

so i am going through this major christine kane thing. i just e-mailed her booking people begging them to do a show near me.

for your enjoyment:

Off the Ground
by Christine Kane

This is the way I see it
This is the life I live
This is the how-to book for the heart I give
And this is the way I wake up
This is the tale I write
This is the prayer I pray in the dead of night
And here's all my fearful moments
Here's all the sounds I've heard
Tangled in the nothingness of the spoken word

Chorus: Hey, don't you know I'm laying way too low
I'm on my knees I'll pick myself up if you let me go
Hey, I've been down too long in the lost and found
Now I'm just getting off the ground

I have my share of secrets
And dozens of things I hide
And maybe I'll let you in but it might take time
'Cause you say that you want me near you
And you smile when I run right by
When I throw you a sideways glance if you catch my eye
But you've got the patience, I don't
You give the way I can't
So you tell me you love me and I'm likely not to understand

Chorus

Part of me just can't stop talking
Part of me is tongue-tied
Half of me is laughing and the other half is
Keeping track of every last tear I've cried

But it's never without emotion
It's never an easy ride
And I've got to admit that it's so nice to have you by my side

i am beyond pissed off today.

and for once, it has nothing to do with politics (though i have not even looked at transitionwatch today....)

i am starting to wonder if some friendships are worth trying so damn hard. you the ones i am talking about. the ones where one person is making the entire effort while the other person sits on his/her ass. why? why do i always put myself through this pain and misery? damnit, karen...give it up. you have heaps of other friends. you don't need this one person in your life.

but still, it hurts too much to let go. . .

the thought of living without this person is scary. . .

damnit, i'm such a sucker.

i have a craving for a bagle. anyone want to get me a bagle? all of the bagle places are closed at this hour.
posted by Crazy Karen at 8:50 PM

ok, you know what really pisses me off? when someone you think you're tight with never bothers to write you anymore. fuck the "let's keep in touch" shit. out of sight, out of mind, right?

fuck that.
