Finally! My New Computer!

I finally got my new PC today! And I got off work early, so I will have time to get everything set up the way I want it.

Funny, ironic observation of the day...

Last night, I was perusing a gossip blog* where a lot of lefties hang out. Many of them are Rawn Pawl supporters. (They are also overtly pro-abortion and are hostile to Christianity.) Here is the sig on one of the posts from a Pawl supporter:

Fascism will come to America wrapped in an American flag and carrying a cross.

This is hilarious because the biggest theocrats in the blogosphere support Rawn Pawl. In fact, they get downright moony-eyed over him. They think he is the only true Christian and pro-lifer in the running.

The only way I can explain such disparate supporters is the moronic convergence of the very far left and the very far right. Theocrats, potheads and conspiracy freaks...they all come together to support Rawn Pawl.

You can't buy laughs like these...

*I know, I know...I shouldn't be reading gossip blogs. But laughing at dumb celebrities can be pretty entertaining.

Odds and ends...

I've just been really busy and haven't had a lot to say. Right now, I can't stand politics and I don't see that changing any time soon. I continue to be amused at everyone from theocrats to moderates digging in their heels and saying, "If so-and-so wins the nomination, I will vote for the Democrat/vote third party/sit out the election." Good Lord, politics brings out the stupid in people. And don't get me started on the Rawn Pawl cult. One last political comment -- there's one thing my lefty sister and I agree on: we both loathe Hillary Clinton. Common ground! :-)

On a personal note, I'm now completely off the Paxil. I don't know if this is related, but I've been a walking disaster area lately. In the past two days, I've broken a glass container for a candle, broken a mirror, dropped a plate (which didn't break, miraculously) and put a pretty good scratch on my car. I've just been a bundle of nerves.

My family isn't exchanging gifts this year, but I'm going to make some gifts to give to a few friends. I'm making some soap and other bath things. I just hope I don't drop anything, break anything, mess anything up or burn the kitchen down in the process.

Hopefully, I will finally get my new computer by the end of the week. It's a long story as to why I haven't gotten it yet, which I won't go into. Let's just say that I will be relieved when I finally get it.

Well, I will continue to be busy the rest of the week with work, making gifts and getting things cleaned up and ready for the new PC. I will post again when I have time and when I have something to say.

BTW, thank you for the prayers concerning my aunt and this incident. My aunt is doing fine now, and the other incident seems to not be an issue anymore.

Another Prayer Request

Please pray for my Mom's oldest sister. She recently had a fall and had been complaining of headaches. Then she developed memory problems. Her daughter took her to the hospital and she has been hospitalized with bleeding on the brain. She has been stabilized. Please pray that the bleeding stops and that she recovers fully. She doesn't live in the same town as my Mom and me. She and her husband (who has also been ailing) live in a little farm community near Westville, Florida where my mother's family grew up.

Update (12/4/07): My Mom called my aunt today and spoke to her. She is still in the hospital, but she is doing much better and apparently the bleeding has stopped. She is still recovering from a concussion, though. Thank you for your prayers.

Update (12/6/04): My aunt is now home and appears to be completely recovered. Thank you again!
