(no subject)

I watched the debate tonight, interestngly enough, in a room with 11 people, split about half and half Democrats and Republicans, which was kind of cool. And you know, besides the natural frustration with Bush, the overall feeling I had coming away from it was hope. Because despite everything, and the way things are leaning, I don't think it's over yet by a long shot. I don't know why but I do believe that somehow it will all work out and Kerry will win. The strength of this conviction rather surprises me.

Besides that, today was vaguely crappy in a way that I can't quite put my finger on. It's left a sour feeling lingering in my stomach.

But, to end on a happier note, guess what I found? From an old Entertainment Weekly article, Paul Gross on playing Fraser: "'I don't think there's anyone even remotely like (Fraser) in Canada,' says the actor from the show's Toronto set. 'I used to be a really mean, cynical misanthrope, and I was a criminal,' he deadpans. 'But now that I'm playing this part, I love everybody.'"

Oh how I love Paul Gross.
