Made it through another one.

Didn’t feel like jumping out of my skin today, so that’s an improvement.  If I really relax everything, my jaw will almost clatter.

Dog’s getting better on her meds too.  So it’s almost like we’re in this together!

It can’t be that bad.

I know where my Nutty Bars are.

Goes to eleven

That’s where all my senses are right now.  It’s a bit overwhelming.

Grocery Shopping.

Everybody knows that you should avoid grocery shopping when hungry or stoned.

I can add one to the list.  When you’re in the middle of an anxiety episode.

On the plus side, I don’t have to shop for a month!

Side Effects

Irony defined: among the side effects associated with SSRIs is “increased anxiety”.  Good thing I’m taking an anti-anxiety medication, eh?

Oh, wait.

Never mind.

MESSAGE FAIL!

A Rod gets plunked. CC sends a message to Curt Suzuki – drawing warnings to everyone.

Suzuki responds with a home run on the next pitch.

Not news: Government rapes you

News: They use the phone company as their strap-on.

My phone bill should be pretty simple. $77.49 a month for everything. It’s not.

Not including itemized calls, there’s one line of actual services. One line is some service credit. The last seven lines? Fees and taxes.

The bottom line just went up by $2.61 a month. $2.00 of that was actual service fee increase. The other $0.61? Surcharges and sales taxes. Something called the “Universal Service Fund”. And guess what? The state sales taxes go up too, because they are charging you sales tax ON TAXES AND FEES!

By the time you add up all the fees and taxes, they comprise more than 15% of the total check I write to the phone company.   And these fees go up every quarter.

For the greater good, no doubt.

Of course, that’s the point…

Excerpted from Instapundit:

Fair enough. Of course, Obama’s plan — and Big Government in general — is all about ensuring that we don’t have the right to decide how to spend our dollars but should instead let somebody else take them at gunpoint and decide how they’re spent.

This was his response to a post elsewhere about the Whole Foods CEO not supporting “the most important progressive cause of the moment.”

Glenn, you hit on the core of progressivism.  The idea that everyone’s money should be taken from them and given back in approved programs by benevolent government masters.

The mental defect that allows them to support such bullshit is simply that they believe that they will be the masters, and therefore exempt from having their money taken from them.

The problem with watching one scene from a movie

is that you end up watching the whole movie.

So much for getting to bed early.
