Botox - so far, so good

Who knew botox could drastically improve my quality of life! It's taken me over a year to actually go thru with it, but I finally did last week and boy do I feel better. It has also become a great source of comedy for those in my inner circle. I have successfully "one-upped" many folk who swear they had the worst week ever with a lay off or getting kicked out of a bar (c'mon people...cry me a river). I just pull the botox story out of my back-pocket, throw in some detail of how I had to withstand the pain of two separate injections, not in my lips or my crow's feet, but, now, where am I going with this story?

You're probably wondering about cost. My insurance covered the hole thing because of the medical need. I just go back in a month for a follow up. We'll see if I need more injections which will be a pain in the you know what, but I gotta do what I gotta do. Will keep you posted.

And by the way, my face does move when I smile.

Call banks

We are definitely in the hot and sweaty part of the campaign season and Rick Davis and his machine are definitely cranking out the smear to hit the fearful, uneducated folks. God bless 'em. I will have to say in the Obama camp, the negative ads have also hit the airwaves and top-dollar advertising space has been purchased.

It's all pretty disgusting and I would rather just focus on my spent calling the individuals in the swing states and helping them vote. It's my new thing. Talking to people on the phone. Actually, it's talking to people on the phone that I don't even know and hearing their stories and arranging rides and such. To me, this is what the campaign is about - mobilizing individuals to exercise one of our most sacred rights of this democracy. I'm just focusing on Change We Can Believe In because I know if we can get Barach Obama elected, it will be so amazing and inspiring for this country and the world to see.
