So I Married a Political Wanna-Be
This whole politician's wife thing is getting way out of control. It was bad enough going to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History and having them put
the "First Ladies" exhibit in the prime real-estate the ground floor while they tuck the exhibit on presidents in the back of the third floor, as if "First Lady" is an actual position instead of a ridiculous name for a woman married to the president.

And I'm like, "See Laura, this is why I was sent by God personally to lead America into the land of financial splendor and strong international relations you see, and why you weren't." Chicks, eh? High-five! Anyone? Anyone? Well, in the meantime, nobody seems to care about me, because they're all busy checking with Rudy about how he'd do all the same things I did and pretending it's going to turn out any differently. So I've got a little time to put up some stuff. I added some pictures to Daisy Fuentes's page a little while back, and put up a bunch of new ones for Heather Graham today and some Kristen Bell ones today. Let's see Laura do that...
