I heard one woman in the office complain this morning how it was cold out and I idly wondered what winters she is used to, since it was in the 40s this morning. I want cold, I want snow, and I want to wear my pretty new winter coat damn it!<\/p>\n<p>The lack of projects thing I can actually do something about, I think it would solve my warm winter woes if I were absorbed in something at home. But what? Nothing has really jumped out at me lately, and for the first time in a long time my To-Do list is short, only including regular maintenance stuff.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s Bush&#8217;s fault because I listened to part of the State of the Union last night and it annoyed me. I did the usual annoyed eye rolling until he got to the first (only?) time he used the world &#8220;evil&#8221; in the speech and I rolled over in bed and stopped listening. I hate when he uses the word &#8220;evil&#8221; to describe his enemies. And that got me thinking about my views on &#8220;evil&#8221; in general and I realized that I don&#8217;t know what I really think. It was a subject during one of our shaman classes, but I couldn&#8217;t quite pin it down there either. Whatever my definition ends up being, I know it won&#8217;t include people who believe they are doing Right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m feeling very &#8220;emo&#8221; this week; I wish I owned some good drama films that would make me cry.
