Taking the Plunge

neadodsI hear that when you're a kid, you regret what you've done and when you're an adult, you regret what you haven't done. I also hear, direct from the DC Shakes, that there hasn't been a peep regarding the Mock Trial waitlist, but there are "a bunch" of dinner tickets left.
Been thinking about this too long, too often. I'm going to get my ticket tomorrow.
Will tell all the weekend after, when I have a chance to write it up.
PS - I know some deep shit is going down in American politics right now. I'm focusing on the topic that *won't* give me an aneurism. Because if I get on the topic of "unborn babies are so precious that women can't even abort dead ones" (Georgia) or "men need money more, so women shouldn't have equal pay" (Wisconsin) I will rage and rage for hours with a shitload of profanity. I kind of wish I was back at my old office, though, just for one day to have one more political argument with my co-worker. The one who seriously thought that once we had rights, we got to keep them, and that they would never, ever be repealed.
Although... to be honest, I'm starting to think that the "repeal the 20th and 21st centuries" movement is a Republican plot. They don't know how to fix the economy either and the tea party darlings are such an ungovernable embarrassment that it's better to step back, let the crazed loons go so crazy that the Democrats are swept back in... and then watch them fail to quick-fix the economy and blame 'em for it in another 2-4 years.
