All these fucking politics are wearing me out. Part of me just wants to shut everything off until November and just see what happens, but I'm addicted. On the one hand, I know more now than I ever have about the policies and stances of all the candidates involved, and on the other I get really worn out by trying to talk reasonably to people on the fucking internet. Perhaps this assumes a degree of superiority on my part, but it seems really hard to get through to some people points, facts, and pieces of evidence that seem so obvious to me. I wonder if they feel the same way about the arguments that they are proposing to me.

It really starts to beg the question of whether or not there is a "right" or "wrong" or whether it's all subjective. The verdict is out for me on that one. On one hand I believe as a Buddhist that if we clear away all the obstacles of our minds, then we can see reality clearly for what it is, and nothing more. On the other hand, it is a limited perspective, like one facet of a many-sided jewel.

I'm also ready to go see my woman in a week. I miss her so goddamn much, and I wish I could just quit everything right now and go be with her, but I have to finish up this last semester of school in the fall. It can't finish soon enough. I still don't know what to make of living in New York yet. Part of me is worried, and part of me is really excited. I guess all in all it will just take some adjusting to no matter what.

In nerding news, the laziness of my roleplaying group has forced me to take over one of my friend's GM duties, so now I'm running two games with a probable third one in the works. I need to start charging money for my GMing.
