Re: Mother, mother, mother - there's too many of you crying.
So a while back, if you recall, I reached a point where I was incapable of being continually outraged at the goings on in the Trump administration, but I was still an avid consumer of news and carefully cultivated NeverTrump conservative commentary.
I have recently blown through another plateau, and can no longer even bring myself to follow the Trump overseas trip. I no longer devour the WSJ or listen to CNN on my way home, and have dropped off of conservative Twitter.
What caused this change?
On Saturday night I took the SEC Chicklette to her first concert: NKOTB (formerly known as New Kids on the Block) with Boyz II Men opening. I think you will all mainly agree that I am mostly correct when I say I am the only one on this board so impacted, but seriously, watching Donnie Wahlberg rip off his shirt and throw it into a crowd of screaming middle aged women changed my entire outlook. I hate it when people are uneducated about current events or their impact on society, but I am so much happier listening to cds from high school followed by a strong margarita.
The kiddo also favored "the guy in the hat" and I did not have the strength to tell her he was wearing a hat because he is balding.
