Catching up on a little so-and-so

Wooo, I didn't get online at all yesterday. =D; I got up and went to breakfast with my mother, Nana, uncle, and chibi. Then we -minus my uncle- went to the park for a while. I read the book I borrowed from the library, Sydney Sheldon, Stars Shine Down [or something like that] and.... then dropped Nana off at her house, dropped Chibi off at home with Charles, and went to Macy's too look for some new shirts. Then we went by Dillard's and finally home.

Where I proceeded to read the rest of the book I borrowed.... Umm. Three hundred and something pages, at least? [Total pages]. Soooo now I only have two more books from the library left to read and and they're due on the 26th. I think I might go an order some more Sydney Sheldon while I'm reading John Sandford. I might go digging for more Robin Hobb, too. I've resolved that I'm going to read more. Not just manga or RPing, but books and articles. I'm woefully uneducated book-wise. -__-

Anyone have book recommendations? I'm going to go back and dig up my previous post, too, since I never properly compiled a list.

On another note, dragons! I've kinda let them sit for a while and haven't gotten them any clicks since Friday. -___- So my split has 2.88 days left. Plenty of time really, but I'm pushing it 8D;;; click on them!

The Election Draws Near And You hugg your donkey/elephant pillow at night...

This entry was spawned by elict's post about CFUD, believe it or not. Saturday night, I went on CFUD just to see who had posted. It had been a few months since I looked, and upon spying George from ParaKiss' entry, I clicked it. I notice a character I recognized and though it might have been from another RP [similiar icons] but found it wasn't. Oh well. But instead, I read their entry: here and thought it was very well put together. Regardless of the content, I want to one day be able to talk intelligently about politics without regurgitating all the stuff I hear. It'll take a lot of research andto watch TV for more than old CSI reruns, but I think it's important.

The threads were interesting to, and there were I got the following links from:

Mrs. Jill Biden. I posted this article, but I'm more talking about Biden. As a person who puts their foot in their mouth at least twice a day, I can't really dock him any points for speaking his mind. If you get shit done and mean what you say, that far outweighs the sly talk we hear all the time.

Sarah Palin.. Those who vote for McCain just because he opted for a woman as VP are really just jumping aboard the bandwagon. I have more research to do, but I can do better than that during an interview, nerves or not.

And if I hear one more person start that whole 'experience' thing, I'll shank you. I don't know what's worse to you all, but someone tripping up because they just didn't know any better is better than someone purposefully doing whatever they want and then trying to step back. Of course, the situation that applies to changes my opinion somewhat, but I'd rather put my vote in someone willing to learn than someone who thinks they know it all and doesn't what the shitpie they baked themselves. =_=

Aaaanyway, I'm going to do more research before the election, but I'm pretty sure of who I'm voting for. Why can't we let an Independent into the debates? that would be awesome, especially if he blows the other two out of the water.
