We can get civil unionized!!!

Today's big news is about the failed effort by a group (lightly labelled "anti-gay") to get a referendum on the ballot regarding the civil union bill recently signed into law. This means the law will go into effect on Jan.1, 2008, as planned. If someone wants to vote on it, the petition drive will have to start over again next year. By that time, it will be too late. Bwa-hahaha!!

To say I'm surprised that the petition drive failed is an understatement. Oregonians like to have ballot initiatives about every freakin' thing.

In other news, I had to get a flat tire fixed. This involved the folks at Les Schwab breaking off one of my highly annoying (because I don't have the key) wheel locks. Cost of this enterprise? $20 for a replacement socket. I love Les Schwab.

In yet other news, I have a strange, possibly fungal-derived rash all over me. It looks like chicken pox spots. Oh goody.
