The Inauguration's today...oh, joyyyy....

So, to celebrate, I'm joining the Not One Damn Dime protest today. No groceries, no vending machines, nothing--I refuse to spend a penny today. It's a small gesture, but at least a tiny reminder to the Powers That Be that they may control so much, but their public still controls how they choose to spend their money...

*snaps wallet good and shut*

I just lost my reply...waah...

I was just saying that every way I could help change things, I did...voted, signed petitions, donated money when I had it, etcetra. I would support a more formal protest, but I don't see one right now. And I'm still unhappy.
Even if there wasn't the Dime thing, I still wouldn't be in a mood to spend anything today...heh, it helps I'm kinda broke.

the best thing to do is change the way you spend money every day.

I do that already...there's a lot of things I will not buy, and a lot of companies I snub.
*small sad shrug*

Perhaps a better one might be finding something to donate to a charity, then using it as a tax deduction, denying .gov a dime that way....


Plus, im with specificocean, my transmission just blew out. No good.

I'm staying in my jammies all day and refusing to bathe.

Well ok, maybe not refusing to bathe.

And we needed fuel to get to Dallas and we needed a motel room once we got here and we needed to eat.

Does NOT watching any inaugural activity and muting the TV whenever shrub spoke count?

I believe it counts. I also didn't watch any of it.

I can't stand his voice. Or comments.

The term 'antichrist' comes to mind.
