Carrie FisherAt work I was bumbling through the America Blog blogroll, trying to pick up new people to peddle liberal news articles to, when I saw “Carrie Fisher” as one of their “Sites We Like”.  My 7th grade heart fluttered, and I clicked through.  These are a few of my favorite Carrie Fisher quotes from her blog:

Once again I must apologize for my lengthy absence from the Planet Blog, but I’ve been sludging thru some Particularly Toxic and Challenging Times of late, that have hogged the lionshare of my focus and attention, forcing me to neglect all of you in order to deal with all this wingey, whiney, bullshit little barf bag issues instead. I can assure you that it has been a fall down, shit yourself laugh-free riot around my existence of late and the kindest and most respectful thing I can do for you, my oh so appreciated Leia Loyalists is SPARE YOU THE EENTSY, BITSIY OH SO FAR FROM FEW DETAILS of this cluster fuck.

But I”m pleased to report that I’ve managed to brush most of the ick away from this bummer, ball sack area of my existence at least intermittently entitled PRESSING ISSUES, and once again am in the happy position to invite you to assemble with me here in this moonlit, internet arena where I can share the ordinary aspects of the extraordinary world I inhabit! And I can do this because I am back in the saddle of the wild horse of this world instead of being up to my neck in the shit that finds it’s wicked way onto my no longer fickle, unruly schedule………It’s as though my life of late has almost perfectly reflected the annoying AIG reportage scattered all over the cable news battleground.
ANYWAY——

Particularly Toxic and Challenging Times

Moral of the story: I would still do Carrie Fisher.
