rainin' on my parade

This is the best time of the year, bar none. Autumn in the air, start of the NBA season, and that fantastic stretch of Halloween, Thanksgiving, & Christmas. It gives the great illusion that life is actually fun, though I suppose when I'm old, decrepit, and bitter from the memories this season stirs up my attitude will shift. Anyway, it's a hoot for now. Except... I'm all freakin' anxious because of all the political horseshit going on right now. The potential global fallout from today's results make me feel self-indulgent and guilty for enjoying my above-stated little pleasures. To top things off, Opera has decided to assign a little Microsoft Butterfly icon next to my weblog link. Dammit man!
