Land of Confusion

America is going crazy today.  Crazy people with guns are doing insane things.  Crazy lefties are calling for gun control.  Crazy righties are denying any responsibility.  I am just shaking my head...I am in the crazy lefty group. 

While all that was going on, I went to The Kroger and The Walgreens.  I got Dial body wash, Dr. Pepper, cashews, chicken noodle soup with veggies, and Riesling.  Also: two 3 oz tubes of Neutrogena fast absorbing hand cream (because the skin on my hands is ready to unzip itself), two 7 oz bags of Pizzaria-flavored combos (buy one, get one!) and I got to pay $70 for my normally $30 prescription!  Yay!  Fucking yearly deductible.  I also got $20 in quarters to feed the laundry machines downstairs. 

Last night, I went to a fabulous little bar in Loveland with Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.  We had a yummy dinner and drank a couple of yummy beers.  I ended up spilling my (full) second beer all over the bar top, and managed to drench my cell phone.  Now?  I am only able to get to some crappy bootup screen.  I researched a bunch of forums, and decided to let the phone dry out more before visiting the Verizon store tomorrow.  It may or may not work, but a couple of friends have suggested using rice to draw the moisture out.  I have no rice, so the Droid is currently sitting in a baggie of orzo.  Which is close to rice.  Sort of. 

Morals of the story?  You can't take me anywhere.  Also, you can be totally sober and do drunk things.  Luckily, Marky Mark finds me entertaining, and wasn't daunted by my clumsiness. 

Finally - these combos are fantastic!  I am flooded with middle school childhood memories!

Gun ownership is constitutionally protected. And I respect that. However, ammunition is not constitutionally protected. We should make it nearly impossible to obtain bullets because even if guns were banned today, there will still be millions of used weapons available for centuries to come.
