Love Laura's comment about Adam being "dignified." Interesting observation. I must say I agree. He may act silly and playful and goofy at times, but he never seems foolish or clueless. He's very self-aware.
So, Shosh says we will get "bits and bobs" over the next few months. Well, that's better than nothing. Wonder when and where he will be giving us his "bits and bobs?"
Watched the convention last night. Very impressed with the speakers, esp. Michelle Obama. She made it clear that our power to vote is everything. It's the only thing that will make a difference.

To me, Adam epitomizes PRIDE. Not egotism, but self-worth. He is priceless to me in that way as a “role model.” And it is completely aside from his talent.

OK, going to pocke in a Hornets nest but oh well. To make things clear: i admire Michelle, she is a outstanding orator, she's intelligent, diginified and i repsect her BIG TIME. One can only Imagine, what the years at the White House meant for her.
Two things irked me ALOT in her speach: first the "lesser evelism" was startling and eerily reminicend of 2016. With someone like HeWhoCannot amed in the White House HOW on earth, for all that's good can the democrats not come up with more of a reason or better reasons to be voted for than "we're Not as Bad as HeWhoCannot amed/we're better than HeWhoCannot amed". Also the blatantly clear shame and blame to third party voters just pushes my buttons to absolutely NO end!
OK, now going to run for the Hills and hide out.🤐

I think Michelle gave a wonderful speech. Most of us know we need to get out and vote. But if she can reach even a few who think their votes don't matter or think it would be cool to vote for Kanye West (the republicans are working hard to get him on the ballot) she has done her job. For those who voted for a third party candidate, the last time as a protest, I hope they are happy with the outcome. For Democrats who wanted a different candidate to win the nomination the last time and said there was no difference between DT and Hillary, I hope they were happy with the outcome too. Thank you Michelle for the reminder tho many of us did not need to hear that. But some did so she needed to say it. For many of us who want Joe, we will enthusiastically give him our votes and need no prompting. We know who Joe is and want him. But like in other countries, you have to try to reach those who are on the fence. The fringe right is a problem and gaining ground in many countries, to their horror. It would be stupid and a missed opportunity for the Democratic party not to use the convention to bring the point home for the need to vote. Nothing and no vote can be taken for granted.

I loved Michelle's speech. Thought it was perfect. As did I. We are in real trouble if things don’t change.

I ordered an Adam mask in APRIL for crying out loud! It says Keep Calm and Listen to Adam Lambert. Every time I checked they said they are behind, will ship eventually. I had just about given up. It shipped today! Praise be the saints! It's supposed to deliver on Saturday- hopefully it will get here! I can't wait. I knew I would need all these eventually LOL! I've got almost 20 masks now of various types. Got my Detroit Tigers masks - some of those are going to my Mom and my brother. Plus I have some plain ones. I am using the 10 pack of variety I got from bootypacks.com thru Etsy. I would recommend them. Took about 6 weeks but I've had those since the middle of May. I think I'm set for now!
