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,...
Wisconsin Won
Now I lay me down to rest a second time we've failed the test and when the world wants us to burn I'll shrug and know it's just our turn.
Winning Wisconsin, Part 5
[BTW: many thanks to my "partner" who drove here from Chicago with me and who is sharing a hotel room with me and who's as big a cybergeek as I am. I'd never met her before. We were paired by Illinois for Kerry who organized this whole "vacation." We both brought...
Winning Wisconsin, Pt 4
We had to stop canvassing/calling during the Packers game because any campaign that interrupts a Packers Sunday will do their cause more harm than good. The Packers won, of course, because Kerry's going to win, too. I canvassed from 3:30 until after dark. I was out...
Winning Wisconsin, Part 3
It's 2:40 pm. and we're taking a break from canvassing while the Packers game is on. Some say that every election that the Redskins have played and lost, the presidential incumbent has also lost. The Redskins are losing, of course. So many Wausonians are sure of a...
