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?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

When we moving? Am I foreman?

Dear Noah,

your hands are cold and wet and slobbery. If you didn't put them in your mouth all the time, they wouldn't be so gross.

Love,
Mom

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

>And it is supposed to get over 10 degrees up here.

Why it's a veritable heat wave for WI. It's should be around 40 here. Today it hit 55.

A provisional congratulations, Kat!

GC, I'm jealous of the Siouxsie-having. I still haven't seen her in concert.

sumi, stay warm and cozy tonight.

Teeth~ma to you, beth.

::raises eyebrow... wonders where in PA::

I'm headed to the Harrisburg area. I grew up there, and my family's still there.

not your mom's socks.

awesome - happy, safe travels! (has never been to teh capitol)

this weekend - popcorn and movies sound good. Figuring out how to get back in shape sounds better. I live in the middle of a Yoga hub, so this might be part of it. Visiting a modern-dance class for the under 5 set. Preparing to go to Glen Burnie on Tuesday for a couple freelance client-calls (and, I took the day off to do it. I'm so good to [nonprofit].)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

North Hollywood--I can probably WALK over and babysit!

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

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yay Kat on signing a new lease! And yay for planning a first birthday party, I'd have to agree that they are both miraculous.

My plans for the weekend: getting better? pretty please?

I taught today, despite my better instincts. This led to one teaching moment that still has me confused. A student of mine says she's thinking about writing her research paper on the impact of television on political campaigning. So we talk about it a bit. She seems well aware that there's a general election coming up, but she's not that interested because she doesn't like any of the candidates. She adds that it's kind of cool that we might elect a black man or a white woman, except she wishes it wasn't *that* woman, etc. Up until this point I am just listening to her, but then she asks a question. "So what is Clinton? She's a Republican, right?"

::represses mild boggle:: So my student knows she doesn't like the woman, but has no idea which party Hillary CLINTON is running for?!? How does that happen? She can't remember Clinton's presidency? weird.

But here's my moment of teaching confusion: why does she want to write about politics when she's so completely unaware of them? Is it a cry for help from the wilderness?
