Chicago: home of the President of the United fucking States

I have nerves that McCain will be president. I can't bear any more pain!

Mostly I fear the same folks who stomped their feet in Florida will stomp their feet in this election and try to sabotage or invalidate it.

That too.

I feel like it's Christmas Eve, but that when I unwrap my present, it might be filled with killer bees.

If Those GOPeople try to steal an election that's not close, riots would be an excellent idea. (Should've been done in 2000.)

well said xp

I have faith in the Obama "ground game." These guys know how elections are stolen, and they're all over that shit.

ONE MORE DAY OF THIS BULLSHIT

and then the governing bullshit starts.

STOP THE GROUCHING
START ENJOYING THE NICE WEATHER

it is a sign

9/11 was a beautiful day.

touche

Today through Thursday look like five stars out of five.

So pissed. I had a meeting with a large Wisconsin contractor that our company has worked with for over twenty years. I cringed when I pulled in to their lot and saw the huge McCain/Palin sign in the front of their building. Anyway, while I was in their office for a 45 minute meeting, one of their employees stole our Obama magnet. It was a private lot with controlled access and since the conference room we were sitting in faced the lobby, I could see that no one else came in the building while were in there.

omfg

I hope a complaint was lodged?

Thats the problem. The owner of the company is best golfing buddies with my boss. As in, they take twice yearly week-long golfing vacations together. So if I do complain, it will cause major problems for me here. Plus, my boss is also a huge Republican, so he's not likely to really back me up too much.

wow

Maybe it was a gag. Like, the employee who stole your magnet has been doing that all year long and like tomorrow, the owner of the company is going to come out to his car and find it covered under 200 Obama magnets.

hm seems like theft by company employees would be cause for concern but whatevs, you know the situation better than I.

just let it go ... you lost a magnet, they're going to lose an election

If it was me: fuck bosses, fuck golfing buddies, I want my shit back or at least 5 minutes with the fucker who took it.

I agree with you dan, unfortunately the relationship (both professionally and personally) they have with our firm puts me in a really hard place to be very vocal about it. Obvs its just a silly magnet, but the principle of the thing kind of pisses me off.

lovely weather.

deeeeeep breaths.

oh hai.

It really is a beautiful day.

Dan, which bus do you take to work? I just drove down MI Ave and couldn't see crap.

I take either the 2, 6, or X28. The reason you didn't see crap is because none of the stuff is on Michigan, it's all on Columbus.

Or at least it was this morning.

You do know where the rally is, right?

I do know! But I thought I might see something from the car.

My stomach feels very sick.

Haha: Jenny tried to ease her anxiety by bra shopping.

bra shopping makes me anxious all by itself!

unless it's online, where you can buy pretty things.

and not worry about whether they'll ever fit your freakish physique once you get them in the mail.

once=until

whatever.

A bra seems like it would be difficult to fit without getting a custom job. Boobs would be kind of a hassle, I think. I mean, balls are no walk in the park, but at least they don't require special equipment.

ever play hockey?

Not with balls.

What? I don't know what that meant.

i feel like my brain is totally fried

i should probably take a break and go for a walk but also if i keep working i will feel less stressed and more proud of myself and get to relax more later in the week

actually what i need is a beer

that's it, turn to the bottle

goddammit where can i live where the weather would be like this every single day? it's perfect out there right now

oakland

probably someplace lame like california.

wish i could go for a bike ride instead of going to the airport. have a good week chicago, i don't think i'll be online until next week.

xp

no way when i was in SF it was gray and freezing every day until like 3 pm when the sun would finally come out

hey asshole did I say San Francisco??

HEY

Oh man...it's getting dark. Oh, for the days of being a waiter and getting all the sunshine I could want.

goddammit where can i live where the weather would be like this every single day? it's perfect out there right now

sadly the answer is Los Angeles. :(
