Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Other trashy tidbits:

I hate waiting for the phone to ring.

Yes, I meant KJI=Kim Jong Il.

And I've been delighting in reading really bad reviews of K-Fed's "album". EW gave it an "F", and Rolling Stone gave it 1 star (and I'm surprised it did that well, considering how the reviewer eviscerated it).

You get a minimum 1 star for successfully creating and distributing an album of music, regardless of how atrocious?

Not if she wants to hide the fact that her rib cage looks like a xylophone.

I wonder about this transformation, and who's behind it.

Damn you, Angelina Jolie!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I voted on the way home from work. It's nice that my polling place is just around the corner from my house. There was very little by way of lines, so it all went quickly. Yay! No more political ads!(At least for a year or so)

At least I now know where my polling place is. When I registered last month, they told me to go to the village hall of the neighboring town. When I went there at lunchtime, no voting--that was only for early voting. A village employee looked up my polling place on the computer, and gave me the address (in a Lutheran church). I drove down to the street, but couldn't figure out the street numbering (it was very screwy). Turns out W. Palatine Road is actually east of E. Palatine Road (see what I mean about screwy?), and the church was at the south end of the street I turn north on every morning to get to work. If I had known I was voting there, I would have gone before work!

Oh, well, at least I know better for 2008 (if I'm still living here then).

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Some words of hope from Christian Newswire:

This is a critically important day for Christians in America. If Christians don't show up to vote today, babies will continue to die in abortions, fewer children will grow up in married homes, many more will grow up with two daddies or two mommies, God will ultimately be purged from the public square. In short, America will soon look like godless Europe. It's that simple.

My polling place is a middle school caf. A really old middle school, that I think may have been an elementary, but is now a 2 year m.s. The dust on the biplanes and kites strung from the ceiling is older than I am. Probably the milk carton on the plane wing is too. It's kinda sad. Statement on the poor public schools in Baltimore, certainly. But hey, encouragement to vote for the school facilities bond, right?!
