rob was here.

After having a liberal headed government for all of my adult life, the coin has finally fallen the other way. I woke up this morning and turned on the tv with news of Harper stating that he is ready to "get down to work." Still in a drunken-like sleep stouper, I let out a non-hopeful grunting noise.

"Well", I thought, "let's make the best of it and see what Stephen Harper's hard work has to offer, and how he has improved my well being."

I looked out the window... preeeeety standard morning. Cold. A bit of frost on the ground. No progress in the weather department. My morning routine went pretty much the same as most mornings. I noticed that there was a new tube of toothpaste available on the sink ledge. A welcome change, for sure, but I think I could have gotten a few extra squeezes out of the older, liberal tooth-paste tube.

I was running a bit late getting ready for work, and decided to not make lunch in favour of picking something up. I'm not sure where or why I fell behind, probably due to watching harper's bobble-head grin on the tv. The results? Less morning preperation time under the iron fist of the Conservative regime.

The morning drive went well enough.. Listened to some Muddy Banks of the Wishkah on the drive in. It sounds just as good as when the liberal government was running the place. I guess the Conservatives either don't know about it, or they haven't gotten around to wrecking it yet.

Here is the kicker, the Tim Hortons lineup was twice as long as most days. I'm not sure why. I tried to listen closely to line-up chatter in an effort to overhear talks of harper-ism, but mostly the talk was about generic line-up bullshit. I don't know why the line-up is longer, but I don't like it. I much, much preferred liberal era Tim Hortons service.

Other than that, i'm programming away here at work. Java is as good as ever, as it has escaped the greasy clutches of the conservative snarl by being maintianed by an American (that's the country we just became a part of) company. I haven't experienced a conservative lunch yet; that's coming up. I assume i'm still aloud to eat, but i best run that past Harper first. He will no doubtedly want to sample my lunch first, as he tries to continuously fill up that enormous head of his.

I'm sure the worst is ahead of us.
