Starting tomorrow, I’m staying away from LJ for a few days. I’m way, way too angry, evidently more than I should be, and it’s a little scary.

Went to a pow wow today. It helped.

Is the poetry scene at the Apache Cafe on Sunday night worth checking out? I’ll be in Atlanta Sunday night and it’s around the corner from my hotel.

ETA: So based on this, looks like I’ll be visiting Java Monkey on Sunday night in Atlanta. Hope to see y’all in the neighborhood there!

and I’m voting Green again.

A pretty decent take on a lot of my feelings is here.

Put simply, Biden rubs me all kinds of raw and has for years. The choice is just offensive. The “I have a long way to go, and look how I’ve learned to adapt” argument described in the article doesn’t wash for me, and the choice stinks of caving to conventional wisdom.

If someone had said something like that about me, he’d never have been on the list to be considered.

The illusion was nice while it lasted.
