Sask Politicos and Something Light

Today I spent a couple of hours visiting every link on http://saskblogs.catprint.ca to see who my company is going to be in this whole endeavor. And man oh MAN, are people in this province ever political. I'm pretty sure that reading so many politically charged blog entries in one day is the primary cause of my current headache (clearly there's no chance that it stems from the sinus infection I can feel myself getting...)

I think I'm going to make it clear right now that this blog is going to be far from political. It's not that I don't *care* about politics - I do, somewhat. It's just that a) I write for fun, not to piss people off, and b) everyone is blogging about the same thing, and sometimes, I think that people just want to read something different. Also, I'm not at all interested in getting involved in the ongoing war between Sask. Liberals and Conservatives that I noticed today. Not for me, thanks. This barista plans to keep things light.
