okay. this is just over the top. remember when the bush administration said that they wanted a) a war on terror on iraq, and b) a regime change in iraq that was of the utmost importance because *gasp* saddam had gased kurds and had tortured his people. he was a threat to his people. let's give 'em freedom (freedom, i say!). then remember how the left (most notably bloggers because actual democrats can't get asked to do anything these days) was shouting that the white house was a total hypocrite because one of the governments in the coalition of the willing (btw, "coalition of the billing" has become so right now that it's public knowledge that you actually got money at the end of the deal in contracts), namely uzbekistan, was torturing its people?

well, it was never mainstream before. and what did it take to push this onto the cnn ticker?
the president himself didn't think the allegations were bad enough to warrant a stop to their relationship.

fuck you, george w bush.

here's how my work week looked yesterday:

monday - working
tuesday - not scheduled yet
wednesday, thursday - off
friday, saturday - working

now - they still haven't called me for tonight, so odds are really good i won't be called in; and i've decided noon is the cut-off time for me to stop answering the phone :)

one of the best news i've had, work-wise, in ages came up last night: our dragon-lady boss is leaving for three months starting this thursday; she's getting an operation done on her foot.

this is by far the very bestest news ever. people were mutedly ecstatic every time we told 'em :)
can't wait to tell others.
