Slwoly, the atmosphere in my neighborhood and the surrounding areas is changing. People are becoming grumpier, trying to figure out how the hell they will be able to get from point A to point B. People are rescheduling long standing plans, stocking up on groceries so they won't have to go out, and all other manner of strange.
What is causing this element on anger, paranoia, and what have you?
Republicans.
The Republican National Convention is being held about 5 miles from my house. My in-laws live about 7 miles from my house. Because of the convention, if I want to drive to their house while the convention proper is scheduled, I will have to go a total of 20 miles OUT OF MY WAY!
I cannot drive the road that takes me from my house to their house, directly. I cannot drive on the road that will take me to half the places I go.
This is nuts. People are pissed, and there is not anything we can do about it except get out thee, march, and make our voices heard.
I don't want the RNC in my town, but moreover, I don't want another Republican in the white house.
Do your part- be heard, capmaign, protest, and get ready to vote.

We will be marching. We will also be going to the Artist's Quarter which is going to stay open during the RNC cock-up. Free cover if you show your Minnesota I.D!
Seriously! Free cover with a MN ID? Hubby and I may have to find someone to watch the kids and saunter on down there!
