The school bond passed. Because, you know, it's only another couple of dollars a month on your property tax and it's for the children.
I wish I could even concentrate on my NaNo novel to give me something to do, but I don't even feel like working on that.
There's been so much hate and anger spewed the last few months, it's hard to forget. Not directly at me, but I have lost people on my f-list to the hate and, frankly, I've lost a lot of respect for a lot of people. I don't feel like I can comment on half of the journals on my f-list because of the nastiness. There's never any call for the things that were said.
I think, for the most part, I've handled it well.
But, honestly, there's only so much I can take. I thought after the election it would get better, but it seems, for now, it's actually getting worse.
Being caught in the middle I'm an idiot in all of my beliefs - both 'sides' hate me, though I've only felt the wrath of one lately. I admit, I wouldn't be truly happy no matter who won, though I would have felt a little better about my money and my debt had the other guy pulled it out. I just hope I can look back in four years and realize my apprehension was for naught.
I do ask, though, that if you are going to keep up with the nastiness (or a majority of the people who comment on your journal will) to unfriend me now. I like all of y'alls non-political posts, but if this doesn't stop soon I am going to have to take drastic measures and, I don't know... avoid the computer altogether. I know a few people who have pretty much quit LJ over this, and I don't want that to happen (besides, I'm paid up through next June, I think...)
