Although I do spend a little bit more time lately reading about conservatism and trying to understand it, since that's the group of soul-searchers that has the most cache lately. I find their idea that "conservatism is struggling now because it met all of its goals" intriguing. I guess just because a liberal will never ever ever ever think they've succeeded, as long as the world exists. Am I wrong?
I'm not old enough to really understand the idea of a young person excitedly embracing Reagonomics and I lazily fall back on "Family Ties" memories to help me. Then I remember Nick the Trash Artist Boyfriend! What a great show. So I'm starting to watch "Gossip Girl" and I think that's going to help put a fresh nubile face on the free market or whatever it is people intelligently right of center believe.
Ok, I will beg off for now. This doesn't really apply to a blog, but I'm just regetting my social bearings still. At least for an introvert like me, it takes an odd and different energy to talk to strangers about politics than it does to talk to your friends about wonderful, lame minutia and gossip, and it has required a week and a half of transition time where I just watch a lot of movies and think about what I like doing in my free time. Man, I had a ton of anecdotes to recount but it'll have to be later.
