So I watched the Vice Presedential debates last night. Unfortnately Veronica Mars was a repeat and UPN was the only debate free channel, so I didn't have much of a choice. I felt that John Edwards was a bit more charismatic and articulate in his argument. This election year will be prove to be an intense fight. The positive side to this election year is that votership is up. Everyone is intrigued and a lot more inclined to vote who they want as President of the United States. This is a good thing. This fight has prompted a lot more people to get off their duffs and contribute to society. It's easiest for some to just complain about George W. Bush's policies than it is to vote him out of office. Needless to say whether you like him or loathe him, his mistakes have lit a fire under the asses of the complacent. I know I'M voting next month. On an entirely different note, I think ABC's Wife Swap makes for some riveting reality t.v. Last week's swap involved a spoiled NYC heiress who has 4 nannies and a maid for her three small children and a hard working mother from rural N.J. That was intense. I think this show is an excellent example of what it's like to walk in a different pair of shoes than your own. Reality t.v. has gotten so formulaic and scripted... this show (along with the Apprentice) presents something different and something fresh. I also feel ten times better than I did yesterday. After silently seething to myself for the duration of the afternoon, I can honestly say that I am over that whole thing and don't feel the need to seek my revenge. This person who tried to take me down by insinuating that I falsified the information on my timesheet, is miserable anyway. She actually tried to converse with me about last night's debates... I wasn't buying the meat she was selling. I find it interesting that people will sneak behind your back and stick a knife in it and then will proceed to try to chat you up about current events. Whatever. I pulled the knife out, I have some clarity and I feel a lot better. Karmic energy can be a beeyatch so she'll get hers in some form.
