I'm fine....d!

My nose is stuffed and sore from all the kleenex-attention. I shouldn't complain, I haven't had a cold in a long time, but still... who needs a cold? So I'm not going to work because yelling and sitting on a tractor in the wind is not conducive to cold-elimination. I would've liked to go though. On the other hand, it's probably better to sit at home and assist the best husband through the awaiting of the worst.
I managed to do a whole quilt-wallhanging-top today. I am so fast, it's amazing. I have several items ready to put up for sale, so everybody stay alert.

Otherwise I had another "first" yesterday. Someone managed to insult me by calling me "European". Ok, let me explain. Not that I'm ashamed to be European but the person in question used "European" to describe a set of (negative) qualities that could obviously best be expressed by that word. So instead of being called "@#)%(*&^!" I was called "European". It's a strange feeling. I didn't know it could be used that way. Usually people at least specify, like, let's say... "you smell like a... European" or "you drive like an... Italian". But simply "you are European" is new.
Oh well, I know what my problem is... see I'm not Republican (for anyone who doesn't know me, I am not fond of any political party so far) and partly this is because the country I'm from does not have a Republican party, which is in itself probably indicative of a problem. If Republican is the way to go in any case, what do all those disadvantaged people do whose country doesn't provide them with the correct way of thinking? Stupid foreign people. No wonder everyone wants to live in the U.S of A.*


*For the record, this is to make fun of ignorance, not the U.S. in general. I like the U.S. After all my favorite person is from there. :)
