We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Our wings are not tired.

And now the president is fucking up my commute.

I wonder if people in areas that don't suffer presidential visits have any clue how it screws our traffic. I've never heard it mentioned on news reports when they cover visits. It screws the airport traffic too when they fly in as no planes can be near the runway or airspace used for AF1.

Annoyed us just as much for presidents we liked.

That's not fair. Is there any way to not grade and have it not mess up the students?

Nope. Oh well. I'm not busy. It's more that I left the classroom because I hated grading.

Reagan's death managed to fuck my commute up at least three different times.

I'll always remember being stuck for 10 minutes on a corner above Dupont Circle to let Reagan's limo pass--when he went by, he waved to us like we were adoring crowds lined up to see him, when in reality all we wanted to do was cross the damn street.

Punishingly Intricate

But the fact that Ralph doesn't know that makes him the Michael Scott of ex-progressives.

bwah. he totally is.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Nader is obviously an utter down-to-the-marrow asshat, but does he even have more than eight or nine loyalists anywhere in the US? Isn't he too much of a bitter joke to be a spoiler anymore?

Well...if we're any indication, he's doing a great job of uniting the Democratic party. I mean, here we were this morning, some for Obama, some for Hillary, some ready to write in Al Gore, but we ALL feel the same about Nader.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So then instead of working, I just spent like 20 minutes dithering about whether I should buy a $75 r/t ticket to see my friend in Michigan. ISTG.
