Date: 2009-12-27 06:58 pm (UTC)It's really tough, I think. On November 4th of last year, I wrote:
"When I rode the city bus this morning, nearly everyone on the bus was playing the same game.
It was the one where we all wore the same prominently displayed sticker.
Even though one of us might not matter, a very overcrowded busload of people all want something for tomorrow ...and maybe we'd just like another bus added to the route."
I remember that the people on that extremely crowded bus seemed to be the proudest bunch of sardines I'd ever seen, and I was happy to get to be a sardine on that day.
I voted the way that I did because I'm sick of having no health care coverage, and I'm sick of being unemployed, and I feel dumb for going back to vo-tech at age 40... I regret the way that I voted because I should have known better, but I don't regret the wanting.
