2004: The year in whining, Part III
Damn, a year is a long time. You'll be happy to know I'm feeling better, but I won't be 100% until I've finished with what I started, year-end-summary-wise.
September: The month started out fear-tastically with the GOP convention , making the four-day period one of a very few times I wouldn't rather be in New York. The event, combined with the death of Rick James and the continuing popularity of D.C. native Dave Chapelle, led large swaths of the country to independently and simultaneously scream "Ownership society, bitch!"
My birthday is in September, so one might expect to party like it's my Berfday. And Helix didn't give a f*ck if it's my berfday.
And even though I did walk away with some cool goodies, the real big winner in September was Marion Barry, who won back his old Eighth Ward council seat. DCSOB was not happy, if not extremely surprised.
...Then it got cold, we lost the election and won a baseball team. I'm sick of this.

I can't believe that I still have your birthday presents from NM and me--three+ months later. You're getting them tomorrow.
