I'm surrounded by Assholes!
Have you seen Spaceballs? No? Well then you don't know what that saying is from but it's freaking hilarious!
Ok so today is November 4Th, which means it's election day in the United States. Has that EVER concerned me before today? Nope. Not even a little bit. Before the last few months I couldn't have cared less about politics or elections or anything like that. Well if you haven't been paying attention you may have missed a very important proposition that is on the ballot this time around - Prop 8. If you need more info on what this prop is about go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Proposition_8_(2008) or google it.
This is the first time I have ever actually wanted to vote. And if I could, I would vote No on Prop 8. I believe that anyone should be able to get married if they want to. We cannot discriminate against people for any reason - race, colour, religion or sexual preference. Gay people are people. Plain and simple. Government does not say that a black person can't marry a white person so why would we let them say that a man can't marry a man? Being in a gay marriage doesn't hurt anyone, let alone children! Don't even get me started on the ridiculous ads that say children will suffer if gay marriage is allowed! And the bullshit lies the pro-yes on 8 people say about the teacher in San Fran who got married and forced her students to attend!!! Are you kidding me? The teacher didn't even know that the students were coming, it was the parents of those students who arranged to be there when the teacher got married.
And it's not just about the right to marry but everything that comes with being married. The hospital visitation rights, the medical benefits and anything else that comes along with it. If you're married, no matter who you are you deserve the same benefits. That's not hard to figure out people!
Well, the bottom line for me is that legally I can't vote because I'm not an American citizen yet. So I urge you to do your part to help end discrimination and VOTE NO on 8!

It's official!
Yesterday I got my student visa! I'm sooooo outta here! Peace out bitches. Ok not quite like that. But I did get my Visa yesterday so the French will take me! (Even when a certain American won't...but we won't get in to that)
I have to get black & white passport photos taken and then send that off with my last form! Finally! All of that paperwork is done. Now I just have to find out about financial aid/student loans. That part sucks. I wish money wasn't such an issue...oh well.
Work is weird right now. I'm training somebody to do part of my job and another guy is going to do the other part. My boss told me that it'll take 2 people to replace me! Very sweet of her to say. So at the moment I'm training and that sorta leaves me with not much to do. I'm not complaining, it's actually nice not to have to do everything for a change. Plus once i get to grad school i'll be so busy that this slower pace is nice. For now. I can only be "bored" for so long before i start getting restless.
I had a beer and a half tonight and i was so tipsy! I'm going to need to work on that tolerance level. Had some time to catch up with some friends - Monica and Britt. So that was nice, i haven't seen them in a while. I'll have to start making time for all my friends that i won't be seeing for a while.
This Friday is Halloween! I love Halloween!! I really wanted to dress up in something cute, I was leaning towards something like Nancy Sinatra but I didn't find anything that i liked. I might be able to pull some stuff from my closet but I really need those white go go boots to make that work. I have some old cat ears that I could wear or i also have a plastic crown/wand that i could wear and be a princess. We'll see...i have tomorrow after work to go through my closet and put something decent together.
I'm seriously about to pass out...

You can get it on Amazon.com for like $12! LOL I could never actually wear it but it's still pretty cool. Wonder what other little gifts are in this book? hmmm...
