I always laugh when everything burns around me.

Sometimes you get kicked in the crotch.
Big time.
BUT we're still here.
Son of a bitch. I have had about three hours of sleep in the past... 24 hours. So I will sleep tonight.
I feel a bit like Rooster Sedaris.

When a hurricane damaged my father's house, my brother rushed over with a gas grill, three coolers full of beer, and an enormous Fuck-It Bucket -- a plastic pail filled with jawbreakers and bite-size candy bars. ("When shit brings you down, just say 'fuck it,' and eat yourself some motherfucking candy.") There was no electricity for close to a week.The yard was practically cleared of trees, and rain fell through the dozens of holes punched into the roof. It was a difficult time, but the two of them stuck it out, my brother placing his small, scarred hand on my father's shoulder to say, "Bitch, I'm here to tell you that it's going to be all right. We'll get through this shit, motherfucker, just you wait."

That's how I'm feeling too. I hope that the fury remains stoked and we don't get complacent.

the DNC needs to clean house for starters.
