1. I took the first half of today off...
Am "at work" right now... not getting much done, though.

3. i just drove around for a while.
i think i just drove and listened to Soilwork's "As We Speak" for about an hour with tears pouring down my face.

lyrics:

Don't Despair, time will heal your torment
Don't you dare, spend your days in hell
So beware, faith will bring you treason...

2. Haven't for nearly two years now
Not my choice. And not likely to change anytime soon here in god forsaken JOklahoma where some prospective employers are known to inquire about ones political views.

10. I live in a red state
I stayed up all night went into work early and talked very loudly with my dem friend about how ignorant and dumb Bush supporters are so all the idiots who sit near me can hear just what a bunch of dumb fucks they are. I was basically went into work just to be obnoxious. Then I left early after my pissed offness started wearing off and I started getting depressed. Then I came home watched the Kerry speech and cried now I'm ready to fight again. Just had to get it all out of my system I guess.

12. I've been at work all day but now I'm going home
It has been very good for me to hang out in the Lounge today. I feel significantly better than I did this morning.

Thanks to all of you!

14. i rolled over
this AM and told my husband "I can't face those fucking repubs" and stayed at home. I was really afraid I'd get fired cuz there was no way I'd put up with any of it today. Plus the crying didn't help :-(

16. I have mid terms today and tomorrow
I can't go tonight and they are going to have to understand my problem. It's not like an excuse that you use all of the time if you know what I mean. It feels like my Grandmother died but I can't use her as an excuse this time. I tell the truth and they will have to deal with it or I will break down tonight if i go in. :hug:
