Over a year...

...since my last post on this blog, not good. But at least I'm doing something now. Today is the much anticipated (for many, not me!) Royal wedding. I've felt my usual kind of annoyed nonchalance at the whole thing but am feeling less angry about it than I would have thought or certainly would have been if this was five years ago.

Ultimately, why would I want to say or do anything that messes with anyone else's happiness? Sure I've made a few jokes and said some nasty things, but much less than I would have done in the past so that's progress for me and I actually feel kind of bad for having negativity towards it.

Having grown up with leftist, anti-royalist sentiments in my life didn't make me sympathetic or enthusiastic about the royal family, and while I still don't feel either of those two things towards them, I don't wish them or their many many supporters any harm or ill-will. Wow, either I'm getting older and nicer or just more Buddhist. The latter I think...
