Being a Republican Woman in a Republican Town...

Spring break's not as glamorous or as dirty as it is on "Bling Bling Break" MTV...but I'm getting by. I've been doing a lot of Republican chores in this Republican town with yellow ribbons over its eyes.
On Saturday I saw Alex, and even baked him cookies...as I preheated the oven, I felt as though it were not 2003, but 1943...baking cookies for servicemen who were going to fight the big evil power abroad...alas, I still baked them. And they were damn good.
Today's baking assignment: Cake
I went to the grocery store today too...and I'm making dinner tonight. What's happening to me? I've also been taking baths, doing pilates...wearing make-up, thinking about taking a dance class next semester, looking my age...This isn't Emily. Where did Emily go? The Republican incubus took her soul in the night, and now...she's trapped in a vortex world of supporting her troops, wearing skirts, and being afraid of change.
Spring break is all about change...it's all about trying to regroup from the chaos of school. If only school didn't follow me home. This week I have a 5 page paper to write. How sad.
Though don't get me wrong, I've had a really good time. I've been hanging out with Kevin, Konstantin, Chris and Tom (that conversation under this is the result of our hanging out...it takes a long time but I highly suggest you read it, shows you what America's youth is up to...and it ain't pretty) and I'm probably going to see them tonight. They're a fun group (wow, sound like my mom there)..
Well, I'm going to go watch Hannah and her sisters...I've already done enough work for today.
