Break Time
There’s something about the news the last couple of days that’s just put me straight over the edge. Has the whole world gone mad? And the ‘sphere crazier than usual in response?
Of course they have. It is, indeed, that part of the summer.
I had a laundry list of items making me blow steam right out the top of my head, since the pressure has become too much to vent through my ears, but why recount it? Your list will be slightly different, anyway, and it is the larger phenomenon I find more interesting.
In any case, I am Taking A Break. It’s hard enough being pregnant and chasing a now-mostly-walking 10 month old around without having to think about the rest of this crap, too. I mean, the idiots in the government and the enemy idiots overseas and the idiots in the media and all of the other idiots on my list at the moment will still be there when I get back, yes? And really, I find it much easier to gestate when I’m less focused on exactly what kind of fucked-up world I’ll be introducing the poor child to. Probably help keep the blood pressure in range as well. Bonus.
See you when the dog days are over.
