Clusterfuck 2008

WOW. McCain's VP pick is fucking AWFUL. Horrible environmental record, doesn't give a fuck about women's rights, supports creationism, her stance on the war, wanting to allow drilling in the Alaskan Wildlife Refuge...what a horrible fucking human being. Like I needed another reason to NOT VOTE for McCain, that fucking turncoat traitor fuckface. Remember back in the day when you gave a shit about campaign finance reform and stuff, Johnny?

Some fun reading if you're bored at work.

If any of you vote for fucking McCain, I will drive to wherever you live and personally crush your kneecaps. It's because I care about you.

Also I got that job. I'm fucking SALARIED, bitches, and get bennies in 2 months. Taking the boy out on a date tonight, which means he better put out, haha.

Happy 3 day weekend everyone!

Another day

Applied for 16 jobs now. Had an interview yesterday, felt good about it, but I don't think I got it. Boo.

Feeling a bit despondent.

But, I just had a yummy yummy breakfast of chopped apple, peach, plum, blueberries, and banana with soy yogurt and some apple granola sprinkled on top. Yes, I eat granola. And tofu. And kale. And quinoa. And other stereotypical "hippie foods." Because they're TASTY and good for you, it's like everybody wins. I never would have guess a year and a half ago that tofu would be one of my top five favorite foods, but it is. So versatile, so easy to cook, so much cheaper than meat, and much healthier. You really can't go wrong. Unless you buy into the fear mongering about soy - soy is unhealthy? Have you looked at that Arby's shite you're eating? Soy destroys the rainforest? Where do you think that soy goes to, my tofu? 90% of the world's soy goes to feed animals - animals that people eat.



I digress...

Pimping my blog: The Sisters Vegan is the coolest ever.

Hurry up and give me a job, Leuts. I need to buy more green tea and hemp oil.

I'm not dead

Heaven


Herro everyone. (I say 'everyone' like anyone reads this.)

Getting settled into our new place in Berkeley. Our place is small, and pricey as fuck, and the management company blows. But we watch the sunset from our balcony while we eat dinner, we can see the San Francisco skyline at night from our bedroom window, and the kitchen is huge. The neighborhood is perfect, except there's not as many bars as I would like, haha. We have three grocery stores within walking distance, a small branch of the public library a block away, and are on three buslines. The best comic book store ever and a couple of used bookstores are within walking distance, as is BART and a bunch of great vegan restaurants, like Fellini and Cha-Ya and Cafe Gratitude. There's two great little parks right nearby, and we can get to the city in 25 minutes.

Watching a lot of movies: Goodbye Lenin!, Heat (both repeats for me). Saw The Godfather for the first time ever. Holy fuck that is the best movie ever made. Al Pacino is the shit. Godfather II and Casino are coming up next. Can you tell what kind of mood I've been in lately?

Been reading a little bit. Started and finished Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S. Thompson. Dunno why I had trouble with it in high school.

Cooking and baking a lot. Enjoyed a lurvely dinner of ginger-mango tofu (kicked up a bit with some red pepper flakes) over Israeli couscous, and am about to make braised figs with yogurt-agave-vanilla sauce for dessert, mmm. The figs get all caramelized and wonderful, I love it. They're my new favorite dessert.

Mom and the sis are coming down tomorrow, psyched to see them.

Job hunting. I have applied for 13 jobs, finally got an interview, it's Monday afternoon. Cross your fingers for me.

What's new with y'all?

Mulliganday

Between drama with parents and drama with the property company that manages our apartment and having the worst cramps ever and the job market in Berkeley sucking, I'm calling today a Mulligan.
