Quite a Day

Oh, my I've had quite a day. First I wrote my Fool's day post, as requested by Bil from Bilerico.com

Then, I was on a roll.

I have to admit, I've either been weepy or downright giddy lately. Could be that period I finally got after three months of waiting but why mess with a good thing.

After my blog, I called Walter. I said, Walter... We really need to talk.

He responded thoughtfully and with concern.

Walter... you know Jeanine and I have been getting along really well lately, right?

Yeah...

And ... well.. I'm not sure how to say this but... Jeanine is pregnant.

Oh my god, he said.

April fools!

I think I gave him a heart attack.

I called my sister. She is currently staying in our mother's condo which still hasn't sold.

Cathy! Guess what?

What?

We have an offer on the condo!

No... really?

Yes, and it's for more than asking.

No way...

Yeah. There are a few contingencies, though. They want to close in a week and a half...

Uh huh... she said. I know she's dying because she wants to hang out there till May.

And they want it totally furnished.

Okay.

Well, they want all your Harley Davidson tee shirts, too.

Huh?

April Fools!

I know I am going to pay and pay dearly next year. I know Walter is going to get me and good. I hope I respond with as much dignity and good cheer as he did.

And my sister did.

It was all meant in good fun. Same time, next year.

Cindy McCain's Campaign Promise

Cindy McCain has stepped up the spouse role in the political sphere. Not only is she with her husband on the campaign trail, she is now making campaign promises.

Unlike a "chicken in every pot" or "no new taxes," Mrs. McCain is promising botox for every woman over the age of 45.

Well. I might have changed my allegiance too soon. A free calculator or botox?

I am sooo going with the botox. Not only do I need it, I'm figuring if I do a full 2,300 dollar contribution? I might get a boob job thrown in, too.

The Newest Obama Girl

After carefully considering Eric Stern’s hairdresser’s dogsitter’s official endorsement of Senator Obama last week- I have decided to give up supporting Senator Clinton for President.

I am not pleased with my decision but have been told once I actually drink the kool aid, everything feels much better. Colors will be brighter, the sun will be warmer, and if I move my hand slowly, I’ll see traces. Mostly, I’m looking forward to no longer being hounded at every dinner conversation by my children who have been trying to convince me that I should be voting for Obama.

My first official piece of business is to put up a short dance video on the blog announcing my support. My "I've got a crush on Obama" tee shirt is not only tighter, it's wet. The campaign wanted a little cleavage and, well, now I'll do anything.

I understand I will be receiving a free calculator, too, pre-programed to do delegate math.
