normally i dispense my political prose with the ease of a wand ....
i should ask myself how exactly am i a part of the solution and not the problem - or vice versa?
(you know i am resisting the urge to callously state that i add beauty and charm and dazzle to the world ;-) )
1. once i tried to dye some old t-shirts in an attempt to wear them instead of throwing them away. clearly i did not count on the color teracotta looking like muddy dirt - this was a problem - so my solution is to not wear old t-shirts and instead buy new ones
2. the other day someone gave me a porcelain doll for my birthday - it looked very frightening and ugly, caused my heart to flip in dismay, and i couldn't bear to look at it - this was a problem - so i gave it away for a charity auction
3. yesterday at the unversity cafe, i had 85 cents on me - so i asked the familar cashier if i could have the $1 roasted almonds and would pay the difference later - i even smiled dazzlingly. he said, "no". this was a problem. so i counted 15 pennies from the "take one" cent collection box - holding my smile at him. then today i emptied out all the change from my purse into the box, while smiling steadily at him
4. today i woke up one hour before my alarm clock rang - this is a problem - so as the solution, i shall institute daylight savings for the whole wide world
5. on Monday i missed a meeting that was not on my calendar - that was a problem - so to be fair, i missed the rest of the day's meetings too
6. today is a spring day - yet the weather remained cool. this was a problem - so to solve the problem, i defiantly wore open-toed shoes and challenged the weather. it started to rain
(now you understand why it is much safer for me to just dispense political prose?)

# 3 reminds me of a time when I was a cashier in a bookstore and a tourist asked me if it was okay if he paid for his several books in loose change. I said "no, not really", and he replied (fill in German accent here) "well, that's not my problem" as he dumped about thirty dollars in nickels, pennies and dimes on the counter.
and he certainly wasn't smiling dazzlingly!
:-) too funny! laughing dazzlingly! :-)
Absolutely not!!
