Well, I've been out from work since last Monday. Why is it so hard to think about going back? I love my job and have been miserable at home alone all week... I guess it's just the daily grind that I hate not my job. Poor Sassy isn't going to like it though.
I don't have a lot going on in my world these days.. the most exciting thing was I keep getting these awful conservative nut job emails from a good friend of mine -- who happens to be a conservative nut job... yeah we don't talk politics much because I want to punch him, but he likes to get me riled up. His latest was apparently in Vermont someone is trying to interpret the constitution as saying it's our DUTY to bear arms and that anyone who chooses not to should have to pay a $500 fee. He is trying to make me argue with him, but the concept is so idiotic that I have nothing to say... THAT is how exciting my life is.
"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the RIGHT of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
ReplyDeleteIt's a right, not a duty. No more than it's a duty to be religious, given the freedom of religion, also in the Bill of Rights.
I think he's looking at the "being necessary to the security of a free state" part. Just like a nut job conservative to only look at PART of the whole. I do love him dearly but he has some crazy ideas. Again, why we don't talk politics, religion, or about race relations...
ReplyDeleteOdd that I'm friends with someone like that, eh? However, he keeps me on my toes! :)
