Finally the fog has gone away . i dont mind the odd day or two of fog, but 10 days straight just means its gonna be cold and you are missing an otherwise sunny winter day . sure you can always drive up into the hills and get above it all , but its also just nice to be able to walk out the door into the sunshine, especially in january

There is a Weakness is the Dark Side of the Force

America has A Brand New Funky President ! *the audacity of chair boogie* , but to be fair, the more i see obama dance , the more i' think he gets his dancing skillz from his mother's side of the family . Thank God the Bush Era is finally over (except we'll miss the great speeches (part 2 )) never in my life has the united states been so badly governed .
