What I have to do today: Withdraw cash from my checking account, get my mother a birthday present (maybe), go to work, make sure that at least somebody there knows how to do my goddamn job, come home tonight, take a shower, then go to sleep for maybe four hours, if I'm lucky.

What I really want to do: Withdraw cash from my checking account, call in sick from work, go to see the very first showing of Sky High, stay and see the showing immediately following that while grinning stupidly and vibrating in my seat from excitement, bounce home on the power of my glee, find a winning lottery ticket in the gutter, run into Jake Gyllenhaal on the way to the lottery office and fall madly in love, race off to Vegas to get hitched, and suddenly discover on the way home that I've developed telepathy and the ability to teleport.

...

There seems to be a schism between reality and what I really want to do. I hate it when that happens.

Perhaps if what I really wanted was to do my taxes or balance my checkbook, something exciting would happen to me. Although with my luck, "something exciting" would be a legion of flying monkeys attacking me on the way to work. Hmph.

EDIT: Maine to vote on repealing gay rights law. Oh, that's just lovely. *reads article, wants to hit things*

Oh, is that today? Maybe I'll take the kids to a matinee, then.

::snort:: Welcome to my world. Don't you hate it when your mundane life interferes with your real life?

Oh, is that today?

Yup. And I'm going to spend the entire day just wishing I was at the movie theater. *sigh*

That's going to be the highlight of my birthday today. To see Sky High *bounce*

OMG have you seen the leaked pilot for Supernatural? Ultimate sex. You'd love it!

Whoa whoa whoa fucking whoa. That's not even a law letting them get *gasp* married! That's a law allowing them equal access to education, housing, credit, or, you know, the basic tenets of American life. So they're going to repeal it and make it perfectly damn legal to not let the gay kid into college, or not approve the gay couple's mortgage application or credit application? That goes beyond hatred.

Fuck damn bitch hell shit.

I'm ever so glad I'm not living on your continent this decade. My economy may be going down the tubes faster than yours, but dammit, if two men or two women want to marry eachother they can at least do so.

Stupid people, guess I'll be voting for the first time ever this November. Sometimes Maine really pisses me off.

Real nice, Maine. Real nice. Don't make me not like you.

Dammit and I live in Maine! This is so dumb... Portland is pretty much the San Francisco for New England, and I love it that way. Fucking crazy conservative bastards.

Exactly! Christ. Bad enough I live in Kennebunk (Hello, George), but now this is being pulled??

What the hell. There are no words.
