Feeling Happy
Hearing AOL Radio Jazz KTWV The Wave
Okay, okay I've been gone for a while. I'm ashamed to admit it but my *life* got in the way. What can I say? I enjoy the idea of having shelter, transportation, and every once in a while a good meal. In other words, I need to pay the bills. There is no Mr. District Drifter and therefore a girls gotta take care of herself. That's another reason I will be tuning into the debate this evening (why not, the Apprentice came on last night anyway *wink*). No really, I will be glued to my television with my friends on speed dial. Who else am I going to talk to when Bush makes an off the wall comment and gives his famous smirk or as Kerry's response takes us into the commercial break (hey, are there commercials)? Anyway, I have just as much interest in what they have to say as the next gal. I am single, educated, and like many Americans want to know that my president will not only protect my homeland but make sure I have a job to go to everyday, ensure that my children (when they arrive) will be safe when they go to school, and that I won't be a struggling grandmother penny-pinching in my 60s when I retire. Is that too much to ask? I don't think so. These were never concerns five years ago. My heart never skipped a beat when a plane hovered over my house, I never had to buy duct tape from Home Depot, and I certainly never had to walk on eggshells at work in fear of layoffs.
