State of the Union Announcement

Dear America, I could probably cover this by writing on my sister's facebook wall, but here 'tis on the blog anyway: I won't be covering the State of the Union address tonight. Two large reasons: 1) THESIS and 2) I am not drinking right now, and sobriety kind of defeats the whole purpose of watching political speeches. In other news, the state of this blog is kind of on hold until I finish this thesis thing. But I'm done with PhD apps, and have one chapter written, so not all is pain and woe. Enjoy the pretty presidentialin' talking without me. And take a drink every time Nancy Pelosi and/or Joe Biden makes an awesome face behind the president. Loooove, Laurennn
