Sorry, Everybody Dot Com
I can't believe it's been two weeks since the election and I'm just finding out about this site www.sorryeverybody.com. The goal of the website is for us Americans to apologize, in photos, to the to the rest of the world for failing to get Bush out of office. Anyone...

I apologize for making anyone feel nervous with my suicide post. It was not a "cry for help," but a discussion of some things I think about. I appreciate the comments and emails of those who responded as if it were a cry for help. I know these things have to be taken...
Hire Me
My last day at my last job was in Septemeber. Since then I have lazily looked for work and applied to some regular 9-to-5 jobs, but I was very distracted by the election. After volunteering six straight days to the end of the Kerry campaign, I am finally ready to turn...

Okay, look: forget about the suicide thing. I'm beginning to regret having posted it. I don't mean to bring people down or make their lives more complicated with yet another nuanced subject to develop an opinion on. I just get angry sometimes that mental illness is...
In Defense of Suicide
Yes, it's Regina's "anything goes" blog, where anything on her mind ends up in print for the whole world to see. Even I feel self-conscious about how different today's post is from the previous one, but here it is anyway: what I've been thinking about today. This is...
Bra Freedom
(No, this has nothing to do with the election. Life goes on.) I have stopped wearing a bra. I just can't be bothered with them anymore: they're uncomfortable, expensive and structurally ridiculous when you really think about it. Imagine a male equivalent that all men...
Maybe it is that bad?
Oh my god. This guy obviously didn't read Michael Moore's letter: "Ground Zero Suicide Inspired by Election."
17 Reasons Not to Slit Your Wrists (by Michael Moore)
Dear Friends, Ok, it sucks. Really sucks. But before you go and cash it all in, let's, in the words of Monty Python, 'always look on the bright side of life!' There IS some good news from Tuesday's election. Here are 17 reasons not to slit your wrists: 1. It is...
“NOW your vote doesn’t count.”
The title of this post quotes from the South Park episode that parodied the 2004 election. If you read my previous post, you can see that as discouraged as I've felt, I don't believe I worked hard for nothing. We did win Wisconsin. The volunteers in Iowa, now THEY...
This Is What We Do Next
12:48 p.m. Wednesday, November 3, 2004 I'm typing this into my laptop as I ride back to Chicago on the day after the election. John Kerry and John Edwards must feel like their whole lives are lying around them in pieces, everything disrupted and pointed towards a...

And I'm sure I'll stop crying soon.
Worst Possibility Didn’t Happen
At least I'll be able to sleep tonight knowing I honestly did what I could to get George Bush out of office. That's way more than most Americans can say. I'm grateful for my brilliance that defined my personal success in this election: I can't control the election,...
