The Maddow Blog - Where is the American center? →
Don’t know about you, but I found last night’s string of quotes from President Eisenhower just amazing. By now, very many of us have come of age in an America where that Republican icon would be to the left of any Democrat on the national scene today. But in post-World War II America, President Eisenhower represented the Republican Party and the American center:

DON’T FUCKING DRIVE.
I’m sick of going 5 mph because you can’t get your shit together.
This is what I’m saying people…
I agree with the sentiment: People are fucking idiots out there; however, I drive a 93 volvo wagon with rear wheel drive that fishtails like a motherfuck if you even SAY, “snow.” Not everyone has a reliable, four wheel drive car...
Worrying about Milwaukee
I am really good at fucking up.
I’m moving to a city where I literally know two people, have no job, am not technically allowed to be living where I will be living, and am not going to school.
I’m leaving a job that I hate, a boyfriend that I really like, a handful of good friends, and a city that I have grown to love/hate.
I am choosing to look at this as a great adventure and an...

My Downtown Hipster Date with Jeff White
Everyone should know by now that Jeff White is my platonic soul mate. We do all kinds of cool shit together, like go to shows, and split 5 packs of v-necks, and get our hair cuts together, and share sodas at Five Guys. Lately, however, we’ve both been busy doing our own things. Jeff moved into the Manor, and I moved into a slump of winter lethargy. So, today, one of my other not-so-cool...
"Be Awesome"
Just made the best playlist ever, incorporating: Jay-Z, Typical Cats, Lady Gaga, N.W.A., and Beyonce.
Yeah. I know.

Pro-tip
My life became a lot easier, and I became a lot happier, when I stopped trying to control things that were completely out of my hands. Now, instead of getting upset when people disappoint me, I just accept it and move along.
Fuck depending on other people to make you feel good about yourself; start taking responsibility for your own feelings and not expecting other people to bend over backwards...

So, of course I just ordered another hat to replace one my dog ate when I was 13.

It’s like we’re the same person. Minus the vinyl. I listen to pirated mp3s, kthx.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m pirated mp3s 90% of the time—I literally just got a turntable, so I’m being a fucking nerd over here with it.

Sitting on my bed, ripping studs out of an old belt with a rusty pair of scissors, listening to Deer Tick on vinyl.
Also, now posting about it to tumblr with my macbook.
Also, I have a septum piercing.

Might explain my uneasy feelings about clowns
My mom very rarely gets all sentimental on my birthday and tells me gross birth stories, and she certainly never reminisces fondly about my father, so you can understand why this is noteworthy.
This afternoon, Judy and I were sitting at the kitchen counter eating pancakes, and she goes: Do you remember the first thing your Dad ever said to you?
And I was like: um, no. Obviously.
Apparently my...
story of my life.
My 21st birthday is on Sunday and i just got a gigantic, face-contour-ruining zit on my cheek. It’s like my face’s way of telling me that it doesn’t care how old I am.

I guess I look like my aunt Heather did when she was a kid/teenager/in her twenties, so my dad and all of his siblings call me Heather.
My dad has also been known to spell my name incorrectly. Clair instead of Clare. lol
My dad always goes through the “role call” when addressing his children. Example: “SeanSarahCameronCaroline! Can you pass me the...

My last day at work is February 2nd. Then it’s off to Milwaukee to seek fame and fortune.
What I’m getting at is, please hire me, Milwaukee.

“Lately I feel like somebody made a big mess and I’ve got my mop and I’m mopping the floor and the folks who made the mess are there (saying) ‘You’re not mopping fast enough. You’re not mopping the right way. It’s a socialist mop.”

Possibly my favorite quote ever of his.
I'VE BEEN RUINED BY WISCONSIN
Checked the forecast for Balitmore—it’s in the 30’s/40’s.
Honest to god, first thought: Oh man, it’s going to be so warm! Should I pack shorts?
