Apr. 28th, 2004 02:44 pmI'm really really sick.
I can't be really really sick right now, although I suppose better right now than next week, still this will sink the Laramie Project audition for me.
Am really really stressed about it.
I have no idea how I'm going to do what I have to do over the next week and get better.
Fucking yoghurt promo. Obviously, the rest of that gets cancelled.

Completely unrelated, but I don't understand how it is that we've got this comission investigating this crazy hideous thing that happened on U.S. soil and our leaders are negotiating as to when and how and to what degree they can be questioned? What the hell is that? I understand they've got other things to do, and limiting the amount of time they dedicate to it in a day or a week or whatever makes sense, but can someone please explain to me in a reasoned, intellectual argument, how our president can spend more time negotiating his testimony than giving it? can be the so-called "leader of the free world" and not testify independently of his vice-president/advisor?
Not to be trendy and quoting Get Your War On, but, the firefighters spent more time climbing the stairs!
How can this be? Why aren't people upset? Regardless of your position on Bush, this is an opportnity for him to be a leader, and I don't see how this behavior is indicative of that.
How can we as a nation look at these hearings and not feel embarassed and betrayed?
