Aaaaand I’m back

So here are the basic results of my experiment:

• Blood pressure is consistently lower
• I’m getting more tasks accomplished at work and at home
• I’m less combative in general.

That being said, it was a little weird the first time someone said to me “Hey, did you hear about [random thing on the news]” and I had to answer “No.” That’s abnormal for me.

A huge bonus came about week 3. I realized that I had not seen or heard anything from Barack Obama, Harry Reid, or Nancy Pelosi in three weeks. That made me smile.

I’m going to assume that Only Ones are still assholes, Democrats are still for Big Government, Republicans are still for Big Government That Grows At A Slightly Slower Rate, and the media is still lying about pretty much everything. Did any of that change?

I’m going to ease back into it, but I really kind of liked not knowing what was going on. I mean, I have a vague idea of what’s going on with the “Occupy” protests, but it doesn’t enhance my life one bit to know that people who don’t have jobs, but do have smartphones, laptops, and tents, are protesting the fact that their degrees in women’s studies didn’t get them six figure jobs.

BTW, what the hell happened to Rick Perry? He was the frontrunner when I stopped paying attention. And why does it seem to be a Romney/Cain race at this point? I got off the Cain Train when he said it was totally okay for local governments to ban religious orders they don’t like.
