Now tagless for your comfort.

When McCain was in Waukeshaw (just south of here) yesterday, the crowd were asking questions of McCain. One of the guys stood there lamenting at "where we are" and wondering "how we got in this position." I just wanted to say, "Welcome to the backlash. This is what you get for calling moderates liberals and liberals terrorists."

Of course then McCain had to rip the mic out of an old woman's hand when she called Obama an "Arab." But they're booing MCCAIN for actually suggesting that Obama is a good man and an American who just happens to differ on policy issues.

I will definitely order from The Company Store and Drugstore.com again. Yay Team Customer Service!

I feel sorry for Palin's kids but my cold, shriveled heart doesn't feel badly for her at all. I was so disgusted by some of the things that she was saying in Pennsylvania (before she got booed at the hocky game) that I had to turn from CNN to C-Span and watch the State Departments briefing on North Korea.

Who'd have guessed that all you need to be taken off the state-sponsored terror list is pull the seals of your nuclear reactors and kick out UN inspectors?

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

It proves Bush's strategy is working - only one country in the Axis of Evil is still evil....

At least they didn't throw squids at her.

(Okay, wrong Hockey city. But still, it could have been worse.)

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

mearing stuff I can remember, because hey, I just finished reading very delayed natter:

I urge everyone to try salting their oatmeal instead of putting sugar on it.

And I urge you to try add sugar to your popcorn instead of salt. Really.

And yays to people who finished big stuff, and happy belated birthdays to people who celebrated them, and ~ma to the masses. Thank you for links and pictures, also. I laughed, and laughed, and still laugh.

And now. Work.

I have planned a lazy Sunday. Well, "planned" suggests much too much effort. I slept in, made and ate breakfast and am now drinking tea and catching up with you guys.

“Not dead yet!”

Whoa... insta-migraine. Just opened a box that's been closed for who knows how long. Said box had stinky bath salts enclosed in it so the fumes were seriously concentrated.

It's been like twenty minutes and I'm still reeling.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just tried to take my a/c out of the window, and couldn't get the window up. I think it's partly two years of being in that position, and partly my lack of leverage. Any ideas?
