Maybe this is how Bush got re-elected. Because too many intelligent people were just too run-down to give a damn.
Hope spent half the day with me at work. She was, I’m happy to say, bored out of her mind. She begged to be allowed to go to my friend’s house for the afternoon.
I wished I could go somewhere fun and not worry for a few hours. But between her bronchitis and my tooth and now her behavioral problems, I’ve missed more than enough work lately. I lost four hours today, because I spent the time Hope was there making her miserable, not doing my work. And I don’t even want to think about how much all the medicines and doctor visits are going to cost in the end…
Mr. Bush, can I take a vacation on your ranch? Or Camp David would be nice. Maybe Kennebunkport?
