Ani and Me

Today I'm feeling in love with Ani di Franco.

Really. I mean it. I'd marry her, except for the fact that I'm already married. That, plus I don't live in Massachusetts or Vermont. *grin*

But I really think this could be a good match. We'd sing awesome duets together while she played the guitar. She could teach me how to play the guitar. We'd dye each other's hair exotic shades, get matching tattoos, stay up all night writing poetry, drinking tequila, and snuggling in each other's arms.

Anyway, back to real life...but that was a nice interlude.

Here are the lyrics to an Ani song that feels a bit like my theme song.

Sing it, Ani, sing it...

And call me?

Politics

I'm curious about how yesterday went with the whole gas buying thing. I must have received an email about it from five different people.

I actually didn't buy gas yesterday, but it wasn't because of the email per se, I just didn't need it. Boycotting gasoline for a day, which I think we use far too much of, is kind of a strange idea to me, even with the high prices. It's like having a day for boycotting cocaine. I mean, yeah, not doing it for that day is good, but not doing it all the time would be even better.

Don't get me wrong, I hate paying the money; but at the same time I keep thinking, well then, walk, or carpool, or take the (admittedly un-user-friendly) bus.

But, conversely, I love it when Internet stuff really makes a difference, love it when average Americans take a stand and really, collectively, decide to make their voices heard. Yeah! Gas boycott! Woo hoo!!

So I'm just wondering if anything significant happened, or if everybody just forgot. :-P

Another thing, apparently Texas has decided that my religion is not actually a religion. Egads!

I'm sure it has nothing to do with our extremely liberal stance on various political issues. Nope, it's because we let in the athiests, or so they say.

*sigh*

Here's the article, in case anyone's interested. Apparently it appeared first in the Dallas-Ft Worth paper.

That's all I have for now.
