I enjoy writing. I don't actually make a living with my English degree, so I keep a blog for fun. The blog is first draft, and as a former editor I apologize for any weird errors that may be present. I do not apologize for writing about things that matter to me. Thanks for reading.

Why The Hell Not?

Chron.com | It's a 5-way race for Texas governor

This is great news--and what a catchy headline. I love that Kinky Friedman is running for governor of Texas, and he now has enough signatures to be added to the ballot in November. If I lived in Texas I would be working on his campaign. If he's elected I will move to Texas...then again, I may end up moving to Texas anyway--but that's another story.

My husband, being a Texan, tells me that the office of governor in Texas is more ceremonial than administrative. If the constituency of a state the size of Texas deigns that Kinky be on the ballot, that's a good sign for America as a whole, I think.
