only sleeping

I haven't been doing so well with the "getting back online" business. I think I'm starting to feel better, though, so hopefully that situation will take care of itself in the next day or so.

I don't really know what to say about the war. I'm one of those people who think that Hussein should have been taken out 12 years ago, but now? Like I said, I don't know. I was really hoping that we could avoid a confrontation, but now that it's started, I'll gladly support the troops 110%. The people that I *don't* support? Bush, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft, Cheney, Powell, etc. I love my country, but I do *not* love the people who are currently at the helm. Nor do I think we should all be blindly patriotic, flag waving fools, simply because this is "a time of conflict".

I'm sick of everyone bashing everyone else. I'm on the verge of telling the whole goddamn world to shut the fuck up, and to please retire to their respective rooms until further notice. Really, it's gotten insane lately. Americans bashing the French, the Canadians, and other Americans who have the audacity to say "hey, the president is an idiot, and this isn't what I want." Canadians bashing Americans right back. British, French, and every other nationality getting into the act. You know, I'm just tired of it- and if I could, I would send everyone to their rooms until they learned how to speak civily to each other, and get along again.

I figure, I can keep my views to myself until the election rolls around next November. Then, I will gladly voice my displeasure with this administration by voting for *anyone* who appears to have the knowledge of how to use two braincells, at the same time.

So. Yeah.

Tonight, I'm heading to bed...even though the temptation to stay up watching CNN all night is strong. I've got A Clash of Kings waiting for me, and A Storm of Swords on standby. I honestly forgot how much I love these books.
