Juding by most of the rest of lj, this is where I make an overwhelmingly condescending post about the US election.

I went to the dentist at 9am this morning. Unfortunately my appointment was yesterday.

I have to go to Preston for a meeting. This is much less enjoyable now I can't combine it with meeting up with [livejournal.com profile] nerdcakes.

I looked up MANY celebrity birthdays yesterday and NOT ONE of them came up in the pub quiz. I was livid.

If you're ever asked about the birthdays of Russ Abbott, Peter Falk or Lauren Bacall, they all share mine on September 16th.

My theory is that since I've had half of my flist telling me to "make sure I vote," I have the right to make some sort of comment about it afterwards.

NO WONDER the dentist doesn't send you appointments if you're just not going to bother turning up, Clare! HONESTLY.

I miss you! If your meetings ever send you to a boring suburb of Liverpool, look me up! UNLESS THEY SEND YOU TO FORMBY. I will never set foot there AS LONG AS I LIVE.

Oh god, the dentist bit. At least you didn't have to see the dentist? I don't know.

I'm sorry I talked about the election. I meant to post about jelly or something instead. I do keep going back to add extra cynicism. I've heard people say today is not a day for cynicism. It's a fecking election day. If you can't get your cynicism out on election day, when can you? I am directing this rant at quite the wrong person. I'm sorry.

My dentist appointment is tomorrow. I should've gone today too and then probably our timing errors would've cancelled out and we'd both have seen the dentist. I hope they're making you pay a fine.

I share my birthday with Alan Bennett. And [livejournal.com profile] calapine. Well done me.

Don't you love americans? Aren't you proud of them?

This was the first post I read of all the posts since I went to sleep at six this morning, because I always see your yellow icon when I'm scrolling down and I stopped to see what SHINING MESSAGE OF LOVE you had for the american people and THIS IS WHAT I FIND.

HOW DO YOU EXPECT THEM TO CARRY ON BEHAVING WELL IF YOU DON'T PRAISE GOOD BEHAVIOUR AS PATRONISINGLY AS POSSIBLE???

When I read this post I did think you meant ALL ANNOYING POSTS ABOUT THE ELECTION and that you hated me. But now I've decided that probably you meant those other 150 posts on my flist. Also that you would probably forgive me even if you did think I was rubbish, that maybe you would go "THAT IS A BIT RUBBISH, JEN" and get over it instead of hating me quietly and pretending not to. It's like I don't know you AT ALL.

I'm really sorry about the dentist.
