Actually, probably bring one medium sized bag, just in case you don't get to snag the canvas freebie bag until your second or third vendor.

Je ne hais point la liberté. Je l’ai écarté, lorsqu’elle obstruait ma route; je la comprends, j’ai été nourri dans ses pensées.

"I don't hate freedom (liberty, i.e., as a concept). I pushed it aside when it blocked my path; I understand it, I was nurtured on its ideas."

FYI: Ne... point is just a literary form of ne...pas.

Si j’ai seduit Cinna, j’en seduirai bien d’autres!

I'm a little confused by the "si" here. Is it preceded by a negative question such as You didn't seduce Cinna, did you ?, in which case, this would mean, "Yes, I seduced Cinna, and I will seduce many others." Otherwise, if "si" is supposed to mean if, this is formulated incorrectly.

faiblesse dans le deduit d’amour

This stumped me since, based on "déduire", this would mean the deduction/subtraction of love, but my Larousse says that in Old French "déduire" could mean divert or amuse, so I'm going to go with a "weakness in the game of love."

Don't worry about the requests. Translation is good practice for me. As those who know me well can attest, I will have no problem telling you when I don't want to do it anymore.

Oh dear - the level of stupid has reached critical mass:

The real estate is free.

It's the utilities that are a bitch.

Still, I too am considering the move.

The world's going to hell. Here are some bunny photos.

The scarf is actually a paisley design, by the way. Just to show you how stupid protesting it really IS. I'm more than a little disappointed in DD.

Gack! More stupid! It's EVERYWHERE!

Tesco is refusing to sell alcohol to parents shopping with their children under rules designed to tackle underage drinking.

The supermarket has told cashiers not to supply alcohol if they suspect an adult is buying the drink for an underage youth.

Staff have been told to “err on the side of caution” when interpreting the policy, leading to cases of parents out shopping with their children being told to put alcohol back on the shelves.

Tesco says it believes parents will support the policy and it would rather apologise where it has misjudged the situation than sell to underage drinkers.

However parents who have been refused alcohol have described the rule as humiliating and daft.

(Which reminds me, I need to pick up a bottle of wine after I get D this afternoon. Good thing there's a wine shop across the street from his daycare that doesn't mind strollers! Ah Brooklyn, how I adore you.)

LOVE.

It's no "Fuck everything here's some zebra footage," but it'll do.

I dislike Rachel Ray, but really, a scarf???

Things are starting to feel kind of rather Joe McCarthy-ish.

727 deleted e-mails and counting. I hate everyone.
