Deserving punishment

For the past week, I've had the flu. Bad. Achy, stiff, sore, can't breathe, can't swallow, can't eat, can't hear, can't even hold my damn head up because I'm so lightheaded and my neck muscles are strained from hacking out small (but vital) portions of my lungs.

If it was genetically possible to track down the person who gave this to Robert, who then gave it to me, I would plan something so devious, so torturous, that he/she would be afraid to ever set foot in public again. Something truly vile and nasty, like spending the rest of his life in a locked room watching nothing but political ads on TV.

Person we've heard waaay too much from in this campaign: Bill Clinton. (Dear God, I don't think I can stand another four years of him in the White House.)

Best-looking (now ex) candidate: John Edwards. Loved his accent. Made me miss the Carolinas.

Candidate's wife who startles me the most: Barak Obama's. I keep thinking what the heck is Condeleeza Rice doing with him??

Funniest line I've heard this campaign: one about the Democrats' hopes in Liberal Oklahoma. Where is that??? I know a few liberal Okies, but it's a stretch describing the state that way. Most folks I know here are conservative enough to make ME look liberal, and I'm not. Trust me.

I'm just cranky, and still gunning for the putz who gave me this flu. Rachel9:09 AM
