So, let's see. You used to call yourself a liberal. But things changed after 9/11, and now you're not sure what to call yourself anymore. Try "neo-neocon" on for size.

What a difference a week makes.
About Me
- Name: neo-neocon
I'm a lifelong Democrat, born in New York and living in New England. Surrounded by liberals on all sides, I've found myself slowly but surely leaving the fold and becoming that dread thing: a neocon. My friends and family are becoming sick of what they see as my inexplicable conversion, so I've started this blog to give vent to my frustration. I have a Master's Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and my politics make me a pariah there, too. Little did I know that I moved in such politically homogeneous circles. Why the apple? See this.

Saw a male Cardinal with twig in his beak and finally found him building a nest in the Azaleas.
Spring is here ... thank goodness!
I'm really glad God invented crocuses. By the time they show up, we are in dire need of the hope of spring.
