Wheeeeeeeeeeee, happy cinco de mayo Lizards. Otherwise known as Friday after a shitty week. Mmmm margaritas. From the place that does them fantastically strong when you’re walking home and can have a conversation with other adults who are not at all related to you while you drink.

I talked politics on my way home with my mom (not unusual) and my dad (unusual). My dad probably leans moderate Republican (I think I’ve said this before) but is pro-universal healthcare (because of the logical reasons that we’re all fucking paying for it either way) which did surprise me on the topic the last time we talked. (He was giving me the same argument that I used on his parents once, to get them to acknowledge the need for universal healthcare. )

But. So. There’s that. At least one person who leans vaguely Republican (unless my dad has really been hiding his political leanings from me for years which I find unlikely, although possible - he like me is in the very non-confrontational camp, as opposed to my mom) who is anti-the current mess.

Sorry, that’s the level of political analysis the margaritas have granted me. But I feel a hell of a lot better at the moment.
