Dateline 10-28-2016

Boy, I can't wait for this election to be over with. As I've mentioned over the past couple days, I'm finding it harder and harder to come up with things to write about. I've come up with some excuses in past posts that do play a part in my lack of inspiration but I've been keeping quiet about the biggest reason for my mundane musings.

Up until the presidential debates started, I was doing a real good job at avoiding the news. I hate watching both sides bicker as if there is no other choice. The myth that America is a binary system makes me mental as I watch people that I know mean well, dig their heels in to defend their decision for more of the same.

I like to follow politic but I don't like talking about it because my stance usually is too dreamy and unrealistic to fit into the illusion of choice that seems to be leading to a dead end. My mind is so occupied with the news of the day which I don't want to discuss, that I have no room for anything fun or frivolous to share. 

I don't really care who wins anymore because I'm willing to bet that it's not going to be the name next to the bubble that I filled in. So, until election night I am stuck watching the battle for the bottom of the barrel while both sides keep cheering on. 

On Election Day I know I will finally be able to let go because I am perfectly fine navigating through shit when I know what path I am on. It's the moments in limbo, wait, that keep me locked in when all I want to do is let go and move on.

Though I know I'm not going to be happy with whoever wins, I do know that I'll be happy it's over. So bear with me for a while as we wade through the bullshit and I get back to a place where I feel that I can be open about what's really on my mind.

Talk to you tomorrow,
