Chasing the Turkey

I am sitting here thinking about which task to accomplish about my home with the time I have before work. I can't seem to settle on one particular one so here I am. I am sure my time will be consumed within this post.

It is Friday. A day I find so positive on each occasion regardless of any event or instance that may take place. Ya just can't mess it up. Not to mention...that next week is Thanksgiving. That alone gets me excited. Anticipation is one of my most favorite feelings. We all know the weekends fly by quicker than a jack rabbit, so next week will begin soon. :)

On Thursday, there is a local paper that comes out. They claim Liberal, but tends to lean to the side of Democrat. I still read it, even though my apple cart doesn't deliver to either party. Seeing every side of the coin is important to me; every groove and detail. I enjoy their opinion section as well, and entertainment events, about town, that I might be able to catch. But there was this article yesterday that threw me a bit. It spoke of the recent election and how emotion won out common sense. Hmmmph. I have difficulty agreeing with this. Maybe, because I am a woman and am ruled with emotion. But I can't honestly agree that men are ruled with common sense. And how does one differentiate the two? Is one not determined or influenced by the other? I believe so. I know people that are so incredibly intelligent. Smarter than I don't know what. But, common sense they lack. Almost completely. And if you look close...emotion is somewhat void as well. Or, at least the acknowledgment and discernment of any.

My hot steamy shower is beckoning...more on this later.
