Oh Bother

Ummmm political stuff. I'm tired of thinking and talking about it right now. A big election, my first time voting, and I feel quite lack-luster about it all. Like getting a B+ on something too easy not to get an A on.

Anywho. I finally delved into the clove flavored gum and it's almost like chewing gingerbread. Well, until you get to the end of the flavor. It's almost rank now. This is why for the most part I chew winterfresh or bubble gum. The flavor lasts longer and bubbles are just fun. Especially on the bus when you know you're annoying the smelly person next to you. I'm sure i'm missing a comma or two in the past couple sentences. Which reminds me. I had a hard time figuring out 19x4 the other day. How sad is that? Granted, i've never been that mathmatically endowed, but I'm pretty sure I felt my brain shrink when I grabbed some paper and a pen do work that problem out.

Getting back to feeling lack-luster. My Halloween was thoroughly dull. Disappointing. Almost sad. I didn't even see any kids in costumes. Maybe it was just in my area but it seemed like the holiday had just been forgotten. An afterthought for the day. All the pumpkins were gone from the storefronts. Christmas banners were hung inside and all candy was 60% off. I think the thing that really got me down was that It's the Great Pumpkin Charie Brown wasn't on TV.

It's a sad holiday when a Peanuts special doesn't get played.
