I have been off work since last Thursday and I really and truly dread going back. Mainly because after I've been off for x amount of days I really start to enjoy that time of doing what I want to do and when I want to do it and somewhere in my mind I get the idea, this wild hair that I can do it as a lifestyle. Not. No. But, I also dread going back because tomorrow is election day...my stomach has been in KNOTS...this kind of thing just makes my nerves on edge. It's the feeling I get when I know KNOW that there is going to be a confrontation of sorts and I really aint in the mood. Sarah Palin was like....right across the street from my office today. No, I didnt go. Mainly because I wasn't in town but also because she....gets under my skin. She has too much power laid at her feet for her to use her feminine wiles as a politcal tool. I would love to have gotten pictures of her. Mainly for the same reason I made my boys watch the Republican conventions. This election is history in the making. No matter how you look at it. Our country has never been watched as hard as it has been and will be, as it has been in this election. I've wanted to document it for me but also for my boys. I know how I am going to vote and I know I'm a Democrate BUT I want them to use their minds. Know their own beliefs and make decisions based on their core beliefs. And then I beat them until they vote Democrat. I kid I kid!

Went to go see Senator Obama on Thursday night. My mother....God love her. She drives me absolutely nuts. The gates would open at 7:30. I wanted to leave at 5:30 to get there and stand in line. She comes strolling into my house at 6. 'Ummmm Mom, I said 5:30'. She looks at me standing at the door with my purse (hint hint: Im 'ret ta go') on my arm, keys dangling and she puts her purse on my kitchen table (a BBBBBBBBBBBBBBig no no) and plops down into a chair. I look at her because yes, I'm a grown azz woman and I have my plans but ya'll....this is my momma here. I'm not in the mood to get a whopping'. She shrugs out of her trench coat and says 'well, your brother is going with us so Angie is bringing everyone by here. I'm hungry, do we have time to eat????' That put me in a mood right there. But by the end of it, in the middle of 10's of thousands of people, with music blaring in the background, my Mom's was hugging me, crying and thanking me,over and over again, for taking her. No matter what, I am SO glad I had a hand in helping her and my son's...two totally different generations, to feel that feeling that we felt Thursday night.
