It's the War, Stupid
With election results flying in from BBC24, The Guardian, The Independent, and CNN.com, it was clear that Americans want change......actually, make that Everyone wants change.
The papers were pretty blatent in their approval of Amercian voting turnout and results. When I say blatent, i mean it. Here are some great headlines/front pages/cartoons from the 9.11.06 (remember, dates here are day first, then month) edition of The Independent:PS- Nancy Pelosi is a babe....... just kidding.
In Flat news, Wednesday provided my only class of the week, a LOST marathon, a delicious meal of Apricot Porkchops, Wild Rice, Green Beans, Chocolate Pudding, and an Unnceccessary amound of Capital Letters.
LOST SPOILER ALERT
It was great to watch LOST again, after a almost 6 month hiatus. For those who have been keeping up with the greatest show ever shown on television, I have to say, i really enjoy the new season. New characters are a little sketchy, and the progression of the story is amazingly fast for a season of LOST, but i've been enjoying it. The writers have been able to create three or four almost entirely separate stories now that the LOSTies are separated, but so far they've pulled it off. John Locke continues to impress me, and Charlie for once doesn't piss me off. Claire could die and I wouldn't lose a second of sleep, but maybe that's for another season. As far as Jack, Kate, and Sawyer go, if you don't like them, check your pulse. Evil Ben (Cedar Rapids Iowa native) is a great villain, and new blond girl Juliette is cool in my book.
I won't try to guess as to what is going to happen next for several reasons. A) because i'll probobly get it right and you'd all hate me, B) i might get it wrong and feel like a douchebag, C) everyone in the states is one episode ahead of me, and i don't want to risk really looking stupid, and D) i'm pretty LOST at this point, and really not sure what might happen next.

For future reference, don't mix a classy Wine Wednesday with a LOST marathon with people who have never seen it before. I said classy. Don't get any bad ideas. Oh, and don't stay up until 4am again, although Emily and I had a good online chat (while sitting in the same room).
.....Maybe these notes are more for personal use.....
Today (Thursday) is full of essays (for Luther class, it's done and it sucks), field notebooks (due tomorrow, wow that came up fast), dinners to plan, runs to run?(tendonitis in right knee, right on cue), and desserts to make.....
should be a crappy hw-filled night for once. maybe i need that.
