A note to all my friends

[weaktwos]

Oy, work is busy, but I'll take time to jot this down to y'all:

To my conservative friends: I hope I've not insulted you with some of my whining. I am upset, I will continue to be upset. But know that I do not hate you or truly think you are stupid, blah blah blah. But I may want to argue/disagree with you from time to time. I hope you don't mind. And it's okay if you get testy with me. I'm okay with dissent and disagreement. I'm here to learn as well as educate.

To everyone:I'm not perfect, so sometimes I may come off as an asshole, but the good news is I don't expect you to be perfect either. And you're welcome to be imperfect with me any day.

I love my country, I love you all.

We're all in on this together, and I believe that even though we're emotionally and intellectually on different sides, right now, I think it stems from wanting similar things in our lives. We want safety, we want justice, we want peace. At least, I think we all do.

That's cool. :-)

I'm sorry to hear recent results want to make you leave TN. But hey, we never tire of cooler people moving out to the West Coast. :-)

Illinois! Illinois! Home of Barack Obama! C'mon, somebody join me!

The thought has crossed my mind. Maybe we need an Illinois commune. ;-)

Illinois...it's no California, but it's still pretty darn awesome!
