It is the last day of our eight-year national nightmare. Tomorrow the smart guy takes over and America suddenly will begin to care about the answer to that now infamous question "is our children learning?"
Dear god we can only hope so. It has got to get better. It just has to.
I am so tired that I can barely type. I know I have to do something with a nice thing I got from Robin, but I do hope she'll forgive me if I hold off until morning when I can be something closer to coherent about it. I am so beat it is not funny. I shoveled snow today for something like nine hours. My back hurts, my neck hurts, my hands hurt and little bits of me that I didn't know existed hurt. I'm going to take some advil/aleve/tylenol/whatever, drink a big glass of water and crawl into bed.
D out.

Musings and collected bits of prose of a middle-aged genderqueer minister engaged in a personal search for truth and meaning while educating the world about relationships, love, and sexual justice.
About Me
- Dawn Fortune
- These are the ramblings of a middle-aged genderqueer Unitarian Universalist minister in perpetual formation. I write about life, politics, church, religion, spirituality (those are three separeate things), as well as sex, relationships and justice. I hold the world and myself to unreasonably high standards. You might not like that. It happens.

If I can get my ass in gear, I'll post something on this tomorrow. If not, I'll leave you with: I was pregnant with A when the Current Occupant was sworn in. My life since A's birth has been over the top stressful. Coincidence? I hope to hell not!
Here's to a brighter tomorrow!
And water and ibuprofin.
Hope you woke up less sore today. If not go borrow that friend's hot tub again, it's great for fixing what ails you.
You know you're not obligated to respond to the post at all, let alone immediately. Take your time, it's not meant to be an added source of stress ;-).
Price we pay to live in Paradise I guess. Yeah Right.
