And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that weather is a reason why the Illinois primary is usually NOT in early February.

We're supposed to get sleet and some ridiculous amount of snow -- 8 to 12 inches, I think -- and I think the polling place is just around the block, but it's not where it was last time, and...

Should've voted early and often in the grand Chicago tradition, damn it.

Also, it's hard to know the path your job application will take in a particular company, especially if it's a large compan. Maybe it would go to an HR department first and the HR people would only pass on resumes if accompanied by a well-written cover letter? You just don't know.

Reality is, even if they barely read them, cover letters are one of those things that help overwhelmed hiring managers weed out their pile. When we were hiring a new minion for Minion, once the pile of resumes got to be unmanageable, anything without a cover letter got immediately axed. Part of making it through the job hunt is offense: demonstrating your strengths and grabbing their attention. Part of it is playing D: not doing the things that make you an easy out.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

So my office is merely parade adjacent, but someone on a higher floor is dumping napkins, tp and reams of paper outside. Which, since I can't see the parade, just looks like trash.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I've cast what I'm sure will be the deciding vote in super Tuesday.

I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords.

Don't blame me; I voted for Kodos.

I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords.

They promised to cut taxes, increase defense spending, and balance the budget using their advanced alien technology.

Hey now! I've already named NEXT Tuesday Super Decidinating Tuesday! Because for once my primary vote for presidential candidate may actually mean something!
