(this is annie)

One of the nice things about not going to work from nine to five is that you can take breaks here and there. That's why I could watch Bushie give his United Nations speech this morning. While the content of the speech was nothing new (Invading Iraq was the right thing to do; Afghanistan is doing really, really great now), his delivery was not bad. He kept saying "peoples" rather than "people," but that's more of a stylistic preference. I'm very curious to see how he fares during the upcoming debates. On the one hand, I love/hate seeing the guy trip over his words, and every now and then it makes me think, "Oh man, how can Kerry not trounce him?" On the other hand, if Bush gets into office again (notice I did not say "gets re-elected"), it would be preferable to have a leader who speaks well. So, we'll see. All I know is, September 30, debate-watching party at my apartment. There will be cupcakes.

I have a, um, date tonight. I think it's a date. I had told Jesse that I didn't think that this crush reciprocated my fancy, but he said that I was being ridiculous, and that everybody is HFT (hot for Tomlin). I wrote back that SNIHFTAFAICT (Sadly, nobody is hot for Tomlin as far as I can tell) and that it was probably just a friendly friend-time planned. But I do not think that is the case anymore. So, okay, Jesse was right in a way. Maybe this summer crush is LFT (lukewarm for Tomlin). That's actually a good temperature for me. I can handle that.
