Are Chicagoistas bracing for Snowpocalypse?
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Speaking of Canadians, I got some data today where Canadian was a racial/ethnic category. Made me laugh
Apparently someone involved in a trial down in Texas got in trouble for referring to "Canadians" on the jury, and everyone was like "WTF, there's no Canadians on the jury" and then found out it some kind of code for black people! Which is just...weird.

not your mom's socks.
I thought the US stopped making you revoke other citizenships, even if they don't acknowledge dual citizenship.
truth. my sister & BiL are both duals.

The goo they use to do dental imprints is kinda cool, I must admit. The first one was pink and minty and came out pretty easily-almost a rubbery wax. The second was the same purple as the gloves they used in l&d, tasted like shoo goo smells and the assistant had to help me open my mouth to get it out. Much harder plastic. That is a bitch to get out of hair.
I'd so love to play with that stuff.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, that's really weird. I did go out with a black Canadian in high school, but still.

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

No.
I did something to my knee that makes it a little painful to walk. If there's lots of snow and my knee still hurts, I'll probably stay home tomorrow....

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
No sign of it so far. I'm kind of hoping it's bad enough that I have to work from home (and miss my dental appt and a whole bunch of pointless meetings) but I'm kind of thinking that's unlikely.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I gave my daughter a snack of goldfish crackers, the regular cheddar flavor ones, and chocolate milk.
She poured the chocolate milk over the crackers and is eating them like cereal, with evident relish
My child is WEIRD.

Is Matt around? Sounds like he's in worse shape than we are - tornadoes hitting that area.

I'm watching a Frontline story (and backstory on the fuckedupness- let's just say safety was number elevehundred) on foundries. They are McWane owned ones. My brother regularly takes his kids to a science museum/exploratorium in Birmingham called the McWane Center. Same family. Yeash. It appears they've cleaned up. I wonder if the Center is a part of that (it's pretty new-looking- and awesome.)
