Happy Birthday Lisah!

Cute engagement stories and bernese dog!

I'm not sure you can be ready, particularly since the Bulldog Nation is rather giddy about being No. 1 in the AP poll.

Oh yeah. I'm hearing this every time I talk to my dad lately.

The Cat House on the Kings

I've been there. Granted it was mid-summer, but the smell in various parts of the place made me gag. The woman who runs it is nice but a total crazy cat lady. She told us she is giving the house to the cats and moving into a trailer on the property. Uh huh.

Happiest of birthdays to you, lisah!!

ION, someone sent me part of the transcript from the Obama/McCain faith debate (don't even get me started on how WRONG that is - what the hell ever happened to separation of church and state???). While I knew Obama wasn't a supporter of gay marriage, it is quite a slap in the face to actually see it spelled out in print. I wish I could vote for a candidate that thought my rights were worth protecting instead of simply the "lesser of two evils." I am more depressed over this than I should be this morning.

Happy Birthday Lisa!!!!

Anti-folk icon Kimya Dawson's latest album is Alphabutt, a collection of hilarious, catchy, scatological kids' music that's sure to delight parents who are weary of treacly children's songs. If your kids are going to sing a song over an over again, isn't it better if the song goes, "A is for Apple, B is for Butt, C is for Cat-butt, D is for Doo-Doo, E is for Elephant-butt, F is for Fart, G is for Gorilla-fart, H is for Hairy Gorilla-fart"?

Having heard that song? No, no it isn't.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LISAH!!!

Happy birthday, Roller Girl Lisa!

While the asking of JZ involved emailing her an IM conversation, her answer was decidedly more dramatic with her driving 80 mph over the GG Bridge and running up the stairs like in a movie. And when I put the engagement ring on her finger it was up on top of Tank Hill in San Francisco (where I later dragged Nilly and Laura) which has a view of the whole city.

Matilda's hair has gotten long enough that when she wakes up in the morning she looks like a dandelion puff.

Happy Birthday, Lisah!

Dammit! I missed all the SEC football talk. Not only is football the One True Religion. SEC is the One True Conference. I say this as the daughter of an ex-SEC coach and one of a long line of die hard, bleeding purple and gold, LSU fans.

I can, and will, go on at length and to anyone who will listen about the SEC having to play each other all year and therefore the BCS rankings are off.

Good lord how I have missed football season.

Good lord how I have missed football season.

Me, too. Though I only watch NFL, really, and this season is shaping up to be paaaaaaaainful. MN looks to have the best defense in the NFC this year, and Green Bay looks... unprepared. sob

Happy, happy birthday, Lisa! Have cake! Have a hug!

I'm kinda optimistic about my Saints this year.

My undergrad school had a football team, but I never went to a game, because the games were on the other side of the city and it was a pain to get there. Also, I don't understand football. The university I'm at now has no football team.

I'm watching an Israeli movie on TV. I've discovered two things. 1. The only people whose Hebrew I can understand are the ones with American accents. 2. If I'm going to be watching movies with subtitles, I need new glasses.
