I suppose it is morning as i went to bed and got back up, but now it is not morning in that i don't suppose I should stay up that is crazy talk.
I got a call from my daughter today, asking me how come she doesn't get to play with me :( Man i hope this transfer comes through soon, this is starting to physically hurt.
I am finished with the presidential election. I wish that would get over too.
I have read most of that 50 shades of gray book, that is straight up porn.
I want to learn to play guitar, i need to look into a class or lessons or something in alexandria.
I to see a good movie has anyone seen one?
Also and only a little bit unrelated, I am reading catch 22, slowly, but i am reading it, There are more whores, and debautchery in that book then i would have surmised. I don't think a book like that would be as welcome in schools today. Which is kind of a bad thing, there are lots of books that schools probably shy away from just to avoid controversy.
On the other hand, I also don't think whores, or the solicitation and use of the services is a wide spread as it used to be. Maybe I am just nieve, but I think i am right, at least in the US and that has to be a good thing right?
Also the book has some I think purposefully racist parts. As we have a black president, at least for the time being, that makes me proud of us as a country. We've come along way in 50 years, we got a long way left to go but never mind that.
I am thinking about the election and the book and the coverage of the races, and both campaigns seem to be hammering home the notion that we can return to greatness or whatever, I argue, has it ever truely left. I dont' want to take america back to where it was!
Sure lower unemployment would be nice, and lower incariration rates would be good, and getting rid of the death penatly would be nice, but I don't want to go back to the days of old. Well i guess I would like to fit into skinny jeans.
I would also like to point out i don't want to wear them i would just like to be able to.

You're killin' me with this daughter business! I hope your transfer comes through, and soon.
I read about 50 pages of 50 shades of grey and took it back to the library. Yeah, it was pretty much just porn, but that whole "lifestyle" was annoying. I couldn't get into the story.
On a movie note, I do remember a movie we watched along the same theme, but it was meant to be dark humor. It's "The Secretary" with James Spader as a Mr. Grey. Wonder if the 50 shades author stole?
