Election day today. I duly went and voted. It is now evening and the results are slowly rolling in. Too early to tell anything for sure yet, but I am quietly confident that the government has bribed its way to another term. Who cares about the lies, the illegal wars, the downfall of welfare, the xenophobia. As long as the taxes don’t rise and the rich stay rich then we can ignore all that. All hail to the crook.

A much harder decision was the one about Lana, the kitten. I have decided to say no to the offer. As amazing as the offer was, and as amazing as the kitten was. I hope this doesn’t upset Desiree too much, or Lana too much, or any of you others too much. It was a very hard decision. Mostly because Lana was so incredibly beautiful and cute, really the perfect looking kitten in my book. For a while I have felt like it would be best for me to wait and get a cat at a shelter like I had originally planned. But I put off the decision because every time I saw pictures or heard little stories about Lana, it melted my heart. I will probably regret my decision. I will probably think myself a fool. In the end though, I think it is the Luna thing that still stings too much.

I don’t know. Life is a complicated thing for a silly boy like me.

I had a bad day today. I seem to be saying that a lot, don’t I? Bad days or nights. Most of it is my own doing. My will is weak, the bones brittle.

I went to bed early last night, yet slept late. So late that I missed the Monday visitation. Sorry about that. The rest of the day went with sleeping and watching Lord of the Rings. A nerd? Not I. Surely. Tomorrow it is election time and I will cast my vote and watch the TV and wait for defeat, signalled surely by the loud laughter from the hyenas. Humanity is a corrupt race. There will be no dawn for man. Just the long, dark tea time of the soul. Let goats rule the world, I say. I would trust a goat over a politician any day. Orcs and goblins the lot of them.

I keep getting pamphlets and leaflets through my mail slot. Begging for my vote. What a waste of ressources. I got two from the same guy. Two. Is he expecting two votes from me? I feel like bunging them all in envelopes and sending them back with a “no thank you” letter and no postage. Waste their ressources as they waste the earth’s. Of course they wouldn’t accept the charge so they’d never get the letter. Never get the message.

Anyway. Don’t get me started on politics, I say, don’t get me started on politics. I’m going to go to bed and hope for a better tomorrow.
