Wednesday, November 03, 2004 Mr. Bear Watches the Results Second in a series Mr. Bear and I spent most of yesterday pretending to be productive (he even helped out with some filing). But really, pretty much all we did was this: "What do you mean, there aren't any results yet?!? When we finally escape the office, Mr. Bear is less than impressed with the radio's inability to tell us anything. At this point, Mr. Bear is a little nervous. That's probably why Mr. Bear starts hitting the bottle as soon as we arrive at the party. Is Mr. Bear drunk, or is Tim Russell's handwriting really crappy? Mr. Bear starts to mope a little bit. People, don't let Mr. Bear help with the Ohio electorate calculations! He's DRUNK! Mr. Bear starts getting up in Kevin's face when Kevin suggests that Kerry's mishandling of the Iraq issue lead to a poor showing in the plains states. "Don't concede Ohio yet, President Bear! The night's still young!" Despite knowing that his loved ones are waiting at home, Mr. Bear starts looking for a way to make the pain go away. Despite knowing that her loved ones are waiting at home, Beth starts looking for a way to make the pain go away. Mr. Bear passes out before the rest of us give up and start watching Looney Tunes cartoons. Who's better off? We'll never really know. Mr. Bear's doing okay this morning. He decided to stay home and sleep a little longer. Me? I'm here at work, writing this, eating donut holes. I think I'm gonna do that for a little while longer. | permalink blog • archives • photos • about • contact This work is licensed under a Creative Commons License. All content © 2004.
