Can I wake up now, please?

It's a dark moon. I'm always funky around the dark moon.

Yesterday was a total disaster. I woke with a headache and sore throat, and my day went downhill from there. Nothing I wrote came out right. I gave up on After Dark and tried Henge instead. Rewrote it four times and still managed to make it sound like it had been written by a twelve year old.

Oy. Must try harder.

Add to that the fact that this 'government' is getting creepier by the day. They seem to be split into two groups... those who *have* jobs in the government, and just keep smiling and telling everyone what a wonderful time they are having... and those who *don't* have government jobs, who feel free to snipe at each other and admit this coalition is shit and will never work!

I want it to work. We as a country need it to work. But I'm not buying the grins and buddy talk. Rewind three weeks and recall what these parties were saying about each others policies. You really think they can move past that and reach an agreement? Really?

And what if they do? What kind of government is built on compromise? How did the Lib/Dems, who actually LOST seats I believe, end up with their leader as Deputy PM??

I feel as though we have a 'Stepford' parliament. No-one is real. They are all pretending to be perfect. And the changes they are trying to push through are downright terrifying!

Can I wake up now?

  1. From an American perspective...what is going on in your government makes no sense at all...seriously...'They lost but they won?' 'three equals two?' 'what happened...huh?'

    However..it *is* being reported that the new 'first lady' <--no idea what you call her

    is a hottie...

    and really, you know that is all that's really important (!!)

    I think it might be sarcasm...but I'm not sure ~ 'cause..really ~ we're not that clever.

    ((HUGS)) feel better...I didn't even think of the dark moon....duh.

    And if we can survive 8 years of Geroge Bush...you guys can survive this.
