Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What big earthquake?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I just tried the Senate switchboard -- both Feinstein's and Boxer's lines are busy. I'll keep pestering, though.

John Kerry is totally my Sooper Seekrit Celebrity President. I'm fairly sure the smit first struck when he won the Dem's nomination and Jessica said something about how, between his brains and his long face, she could hardly wait for the debates: it'd be like watching Bush's brain get its ass kicked by a very wise basset hound. Then he went and actually did basset-hound the debates, and then Ohio broke my heart. But he's totally still my SSCP.

Salon's War Room is saying that there are probably five Dems that will vote with the Repubs in approving Alito, and at least three others who won't vote for him, but also won't support a filibuster, which totals up to the 60 votes Frist needs for cloture, so a filibuster ain't gonna happen, unfortunately.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Someone just came in and asked me if I was eating oatmeal. Turns out that he could smell my cinnamon tea from about 20 feet down the hall, and thought it was oatmeal.

I wish I knew that before I admitted I had just finished off a donut.

Shit. CNN has a big Breaking News banner about the earthquake, but no actual story yet.

Senate phone lines still busy.

Wankers.

They're voting to give their power away....

No fucking kidding.
