So... it's Tuesday.
With the pattern we have thus far, every Tuesday over the past month or so has been disastrous; there was Ovary Gate '08, there was the failure to get my menopause shot, and there was the untimely demise of Heath Ledger. Basically, all signs of the impending Apocalypse, which of course will take place on a Tuesday. Fuck Tuesdays.
My only hope is that today will live up to it's name and actually be a Super Tuesday (especially considering that Super Bowl Sunday ended up being so horrific that I still want to die. BRB, jumping out a window.)
My official stance is: Hillary First, Democrat Second.

"I will fuck your shit up"I'm a huge Hillary supporter for a variety of reasons:
-She cares about the people in the country
-She has the experience, tenacity, and drive to actually accomplish her goals
-She cares about women's health issues and health care in general
-She wants to strengthen our education systems
-She wants comprehensive government reform
-She wants women to have equality in all areas of the country
-She wants to improve our horrifically terrible international relations
-She won't, you know, get us into another pointless war
etc etc etc. I really like Hillary, and even though she can be a bit... bull doggish at times, I think that's an important quality to have. She'll fight for what she believes in, and she'll put all her cards on the table. People won't be left wondering what the real agenda is.
I still believe that she'll end up with the Democratic nomination, but like I said, at any rate, I just want a Democrat in office. I really like Obama too. I think he needs more experience, and I think he's a little too idealistic (especially with the sorry state of the country and all of our affairs right now) and needs more time to get a better grip on the way a country is run. I think if Hillary were to win in 08, then Obama would be the perfect candidate to step in once her terms were over (since obviously I want her in there for the full 8 years.) At any rate, I'd still pick him over any of the Republicans, as he'd still do an amazing job, and wouldn't continue to grind our country into the dirt.
Ideally, I'd love to see Obama take the VP spot if Hillary wins, but I know that's probably just wishful thinking. It'd be amazing, of course, because then he'd seriously be in the perfect position to become president afterwards (seeing as he's not Al Gore, and won't belly flop so horrifically) but we'll see. A girl can dream.
(Secretly, though, I still wish this was our option:
You know you want it too. Plus, young people would totally vote if they had this option.)
So, politics aside, I've been promising a post about our adventures in New York City. Sadly, this is not that post. I still need to upload pictures and come up with witty captions and a humorous spin on our adventures (not that they need a spin, considering my friends are insane and we bring the party to every city we go to) so that'll be coming tomorrow. For now, let me sum it up with a few key points:
- Clay Aiken ("Craykin") is Sex on a Stick. Kind of.
- Spamalot is the best thing on Broadway.
- We're "functioning alcoholics," which means we can feel superior to "fall down drunk alcoholics," and still be somewhat productive members of society.
- It is indeed possible to do New York on a budget, provided you live off a diet of crackers and peanut butter. I'm amazed at how little I was able to spend.
- Cloverfield is totally awesome. As long as you don't die.
- I really, really want to go back.
Fuck DC, it's boring as hell and I need to get out of here. I'd even go back to New York if the Cloverfield monster was running around and causing chaos. Adventures, here I come!
