Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Yeah, but by the time we hold our caucus the candidate has been chosen.

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

Obama won by a bigger margin than expected. With most precincts reporting:

  • Senator Barack Obama : 37.18%
  • Senator John Edwards : 30.00%
  • Senator Hillary Clinton : 29.58%

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

That's got to be a statistical dead heat for Clinton and Edwards.

Uhg. Devi is still under the weather. She's less vocal than usual (like nil) and I mussed her fur and she didn't fix it indignantly. Sigh. She's still eating and drinking and hasn't had another ep like last night, which I guess is good.

I foresee a saturday vet visit. I'm paranoid that there is something in the apt that is poisoning her. I guess the next test is an xray or ultrasound to see if anything weird is going on.

This is a surefire thing to make me a crazed cat person. More than I already am.

I really should never have kids.

Poor Devi.

You can borrow my kids whenever you'd like.

I'm testdriving the Busy Body Calendar which I surprisingly like! But it's making me tired to schedule my family + figuring out dinner menus in advance.

Heh. At least I wouldn't have to tell a ped "She's being less of a bitch. That's how I know something is wrong."

Happy birthday, Shrift! I wish you good health all year.

I'd vote for Edwards of the three. Hilary's been too busy triangulating to stand for anything, and I don't think Barack has actually accomplished anything yet.

This is going to out me as a freak: when I was wee, I used to be soothed by pressing my ear to mom's tummy and listening to it gurgle (tummies are really noisy!) I don't know exactly when I did this, but it was probably around my brother's birth and shortly thereafter.

Anyway, I've fallen asleep on MK's tummy several times as an adult. Which is bizarro. And now poor Devi, with her digestive issues, is getting the treatment. Except I don't know what is normal! But the gurglies are weirdly soothing. Odd, that.

Happy Birthday, shrift!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Hey, remind me, are the Primaries all-or-nothing at the state level like the actual election (excepting Maine and Nebraska)? Or do the reps get parcelled out proportionally within each state?
