Excuse the blasphemic Simpson's referernce if it offends you, but I am just about at my wit's end.
I'm still up in Green River WYO visitting my family, and I am just about ready to slit my freaking throat. My sunva-beyotching hell, this place is awful. First of all, my family... well... to put it lightly... is a bunch of hicks. Even the most "normal" who have advanced degrees in things are massive hillbillies. It makes it very hard to function.
Second of all, this town! MY HELL THIS TOWN! Look up the population sometime, but the place is flipping small. And everyone knows everyone else! I cant stand all the overly friendly smalltown corn-munching idiots that this town festers with like they were flies on a carcas. Everywhere we go, whether my parents have ever been there before or not PEOPLE KNOW THEM. I cant stand going into a store and everyone knows my parents, and, by extension, me. Give me the sweet anonymity of a cold-hearted big city any day over this gushy, mushy, garbage.
Third of all, the cable TV is atrocious. 2/3rds of the stations are right-wing controlled faux-news channels. Fox News, MSNBC, you name it. No BBC World News... No Democracy Now... Hell, even the Daily Show is on at midnight for crying out loud. These redneck imbeciles cant even be exposed to the truth even if they wanted to somehow concern themselves with something beyond the local county fair and rodeo. Hells freaking bells, they are even taking this "Terror Alert" shit as something more than a political ploy to subvert the recent democratic convention! Mother of pearl! They even think that terrorists from some far away land would be interested in striking this dick-ville!
To top it all off, my mother is trying to set me up with every Daisy May and Molly Mudwallop who's been divorced recently in the surounding 3 counties!
And I'm having to face this garbage alone because my damned ex left me alone to face it. Before, I always had her to keep my sanity, but MAN... now that I'm solo I sure as freaking hell wanna get outta here.
Well, the wedding went alright. And, as soon as I can distance myself from this shit I will be able to calm down enough to write something better about it. I'll be home tomorrow... Expect something more upbeat then..
Oh, and excuse any spelling mistakes or typos in this entry. I am typing this from the ergonimically trendy split keyboard hunk of shit connected to my brother's machine as I try to save it from over 2000 items of spyware, adware, and viri. Yes, that's right, their safe-computing practises are somewhat akin to walking butt-nekkid through the sex-offender wing of your local penitentiary with your ass cheeks taped apart and a sign on your back saying "Call me Debbie".
