Saw Hancock yesterday.  It was really good...until he tried to kiss the wife of the guy who was helping him and she revealed her super powers and threw him out the window.  Things escalated from there and the movie became totally different.  Not sure how I feel about it.  Kinda made me think,"Oh, great, here we go.  Same old stuff coming from Hollywood."  What should I expect.  (Side note: Charlize Theron is totally beautiful and Will Smith is totally beautiful.)  But, it was heading down this reachable, kind of believable path...until that point where she, well, you know, threw him out the window...

decided to write this for my friend, Aemi Gwen....

I work at a place that does not encourage conversation, except for a few minutes during breaks and the 30 minute lunch.  I have worked at this place for about 10 years.  In ten years I cannot say that I have a group of friends that I ever see or speak to outside of work.  For the most part, that is not a big deal to me....because my life outside of work is basically full of family and daily routine.  But there is one friend who is someone I never have enough time to talk to and with whom I would like to just have coffee or lunch or whatever....so we could actually build and even finish a conversation.  She is such a genuine individual.  She is generous.  She is creative and artistic.  I really like her. 

So, to Aemi, I just want to say.....if we had the time, and our different work schedules allowed....it would be cool to hang out. 

But if not....you are someone who will always be my friend, even if I just see you and talk to you for a few minutes every week.

You are one of the good ones.

O.K. -- I just have to say this because it is really starting to get on my nerves.  With all the election news, we keep hearing about how Hillary has more blue-collar uneducated white people supporting her.  UGH!  Does anyone gets this???? This is what I hear when the media uses that classification of people.   I hear  "ignorant, dumb, chain-smoking, beer-drinking, stupid, (or is that the same thing as dumb?) racist white trash"   Oh, now, don't get indignant with me.  I may be white and I don't wear a white collared shirt to work...but I'm not stupid....and I do know that this "classification" is supposed to mean "hard-working"  --- or that is what they would like the BCUWP to think they mean.  "Hard-working"  "Scrappy"  (scrappy? where did I get that...)  "Long Suffering"  "Good Hearted" ?  "Tough"  .....heavy sigh....I don't know.  I just know that I am supposed to be one of those BCUWP's -- but darn it.  I am educated....just don't have a degree.  But, guess what?  Nobody is going to plant the seeds of racism in me by trying to make me feel unappreciated or overlooked by a black candidate.  Please.  Can we get past race....someday?????  I am so sick of it.

 Hillary is trying to use race and education (or the lack thereof) and social status as a means to reach out to poor, pitiful, ignorant people like me.  (rolling my eyes)....it just makes me want to scream.  It is demeaning to all of us -- all of us as citizens of this country. 

So, if the uneducated are supporting her ......then would she prefer to keep them uneducated?  Because....if they/we/all of us would just "git edumacated" we might discover the freakin' truth!  -----and support Barack.  He has integrity.  He commands respect.  He is humble, yet confident.  He has this working-class white girl's vote.

Here are the pictures I was taking the other morning when I accidentally hit "Cleo" (yes, she has a name now)

I hate this.

I'm sad and feel really bad....because....
I accidentally hit the stray pregnant cat that lives on our property.

I was driving home from work early Saturday morning...slowly...because I was taking pictures of the sunrise....but I heard my left front wheel hit some animal...something I hate even if it's a squirrel or rabbit or turtle...whatever.

Well, it turns out that it was this poor girl cat who is so close to giving birth.  Yes, she is still alive and currently hanging in there in our mudroom underneath a chair.  Heavy sigh...I feel so bad. 

I'm trying to take care of her with food and water and shelter, etc.....

this just sucks.
