I get to bash republicans!!!
Apr. 12th, 2012 06:26 pmAnd do it in peace.
Okay, let me explain. I am the only liberar/free-thinker in my immediate family. My Mom, Dad, Brother, Aunt S, Uncle and their sons all are of the "Ditto Rush" school
Easter Sunday, I got to the parental units house early and had to endure an hour of Fox Sunday morning Obama bashing, and had to bite my tongue for family harmony. We are still ignoring my little outburst about Sarah Palin last month.
Mom: She has every right to complain. From what I hear that HBO movie makes her look stupid.
Me: No, Mom, she does that just fine herself.
Anyway...
My Uncle J was diagnosed in Nov with colon cancer. They caught it in early stage and before it spread, so that was good. He is now midway thru radiation and gets a break So he and Aunt J are going to the TX coast for a week (starting tomorrow) and asked me to come with.
I happily said 'yes'. Unlike with my parents, we share most of the same opinions, and when we do disagree it is not taken as a personal affront or betrayal of the family like it is with my parents. And we can talk for hours about everything; politics, religion, food, movies, tv, decorating, you name it.
So I will not be around on AIM after tonight till next weekend but I will still be checking in for party post on P_F, cause I can't miss that, and Glee watch.
Damn re-runs. No new ep of CM next week or OUAT this week.
Anyway, hope you all have fun this coming week. I will.
