afufle | Gallup, library fine paid & layout (Reply)

I got a call from Gallup, the polling agency, yesterday or Monday. They wanted to opinions about the upcoming presidential election. I mostly had to be non committal. I'm reluctant to be for or against George Bush. I feel like we're not only pouring lives out in the middle East, but that we're endangering Americanpeople all over the world. not to mention strangers getting caught in the crossfire. I know the iraquies are not so happy, but they didn't have it very well before we came there, and they have some things better than they were before. Things like education for females and electricity. They also have foreigners occupying their land though. And how involved should we really be in their economy? Their politics.

I don't know.

I made a new background from an LJ layout by tableau. I couldn't plug in the background since I don't have a paid account, so made my own. I figured out how to adjust the width of my entries in friends & journal pages, etc., and think I might have figured out some other things too. Kaycee (now Mrs. Dan Radcliffe!! Heehee!) gave me the codes to use but I couldn't for the life of get it but bit by bit.

My background image is rather pitiful, but maybe I'll get better and what the heck, I made it myself!

I checked out my fine at the library since I left books at V&C's when I left, and some were due. I didn't see them when I went there, and my investigation revealed no charges to my "account" at the public library yesterday. So one of them must have taken them back AND paid the fine. Very nice, esp. after all the nasty things I said about them.

Well, out of time--off to grocery shopping.
