Proof that the US doesn’t have the market cornered on stupidity…

Unfortunately.

ONTARIO COURT UPHOLDS ‘PIT BULL’ BAN, LEAVES CITIZENS VULNERABLE TO GOVERNMENT MALFEASANCE

Of course, the vast majority of folks in Canada, and hopefully more than half of US citizens, aren’t stupid, but, man, when one who is gets elected or finds power and then gets a group of stupid people supporting him, watch out.

I haven’t felt much like blogging lately. Much going through my head, but I’m a bit overwhelmed with life right now. Ready for Nov 4 to be behind us and hoping with every fiber of my being that the outcome is beneficial, not just to me, but to my country and to the rest of the world.

Things I’d like to blog about if I felt motivated:

- The crazy-ass email sent to me by my mom’s cousin chastising me for “Politicking” to family members;
- The fallacies of the anti-abortion rhetoric;
- The fallacies of the anti-gay-marriage rhetoric, complete with the viewpoint of one of my Mormon cousins;
- Foster kitties and animal welfare;
- Ideas for a inexpensive Christmas;
- What the HELL I’m going to do with my life…

and so on.

But right now, I’m going to bed.

I would have gone apeshit on his ass…

Check this out – guy kicks a dog for wearing a BarkObama t-shirt.

This idiot KICKS a 14 lb. dog because he doesn’t like the owner’s politics. 14 lbs – that’s the size of my sweet Penny. A hard kick could be fatal to a small dog like that.

Fortunately, the dog’s owner sprayed the guy with pepper spray. Unfortunately, the cops won’t tell her who he is so that she can press charges against him.

I’m not saying there aren’t wackos on both sides of the political arena. I’m sure there are. But it seems to me that the Right hold a majority in that arena. Those of us on the Left tend to turn away from violence when dealing with differences of opinion. You know, freedom of speech and all that…

There’s always Canada…

Holy CRAP this is funny. Though I still think that we Obamiacs might actually pull this election off, making the move to Canada at least temporarily unnecessary.

Oh Canada!

Dreams denied…

Haven’t blogged in a while – just haven’t felt much up to blogging.

Things are…tough right now. Not a lot to say about that other than I’m working on it.

Gotta find some joy in my life somewhere. Not much at the mo’.

Shifting meds around. Started Deplin (L-methylfolate). Not sure if it’s doing anything or not. Dropped Luvox. Lowered Lamictal. I don’t feel as foggy, but the mood is still declining. It’s only been since Friday, though. Will probably call the shrink today and find out if there’s something else we should be doing.

I do like the new shrink, though, which is a bonus. He seems to be pretty smart and has lots of ideas about things to do. Might be a good thing that my old shrink moved away. I think he was out of ideas anyway.

Have decided to drop my classes/withdraw from school. “Withdraw from school” sounds so drastic, but as I was only taking one class and a lab, and as I was/am a post-bacc student, it’s really not that drastic. Just too tired to function right now. Can’t spend enough time studying to do well. I’m wiped out after work in the evenings and the weekends … what energy I do have isn’t sufficient to study and prepare for my classes. So, I’m backing out. I’m not sure of what else to do.

And really, that’s kind of the position I’m in anyway – I don’t know what else to do. I can’t see myself still sitting behind a desk 10 years from now. I feel like things are stagnant, and I’m not sure what to do about it. Right now, I suppose, I need to just focus on getting my brain and body healthier and less stressed.
