Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

doesn't he have like 5 kids?

I think three. Maybe four? And he is almost 40, so a 15 yo isn't crazy, but still. He's still my boyfriend.

Kitty videos! We know you have the technology.

Well, it came from the builtin camera on the laptop, so I'd have to run around aiming the screen and that might be hard...

I watched an entire movie without sound on a plane because of Simon Baker. Normally, that irritates the shit out of me, but the pretty was so pretty. Female lead, too.

I saw it later and it wasn't a bad movie, but it was just fine without knowing what was going on.

I liked that movie!

Yeah, it was nice. It was also Really Pretty. Almost glad I saw it without sound so I could pay attention later.

Last thing that made me smile:

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Oh, lord. I just made myself listen to the last half of Bush's address. He promises we'll get all the $700 billion back, really! Well, most of it. Eventually. A billion here, a billion there, some of it's bound to slip through the cracks.

I'm watching PBS. Elmer Fudd is singing about Brunhilda to a crossdressing Bugs. I think it is a show about WB.

Art Crawl!!!

Is it done? Good.

Last thing that made me smile? David's Emmett and Matilda story - so adorable.

I bet the McCain Palin folks thought that Couric would be a soft touch.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Hey, quick question: electoral-vote.com has Obama narrowly ahead in Virginia. By my count the last time the Dems on VA was in '64. Is that right? Do people think he's a real chance there?

John McCain suspends campaigning to work on economy, requests postponing Friday debate; asks Obama do the same.

I think he just lost. He's insulted the electorate. Sure, there will be wingnuts who praise his decisiveness, his keen sense of priorities and his mavericky ways, but he turned his back on the electorate. They won't forgive him that.

Really? She has been a smash success politically.

I don't think she has. The Christian Right has been awed that someone managed to find a dog whistle with a pulse, but from what I've seen of the polling, moderate women are cold on her, and she's galvanised Democrats as much as she has Repubs. IIRC, before the RNC, only about 70% of registered Democrats said they were voting for Obama. Now it's something like 90%. She means McCain will win Utah and Alabama by bigger margins, but she does nothing to win the swing states.

Seriously, if we're doing that, I can think of many more action movie presidents that would be a better choice.

I'm going with that cartoon president from the 70s or 80s who was a secret superhero.

What's the last thing that made you smile?

Wallybee. She normally goes to bed before me, and when I come to bed too, she'll grab my hand. I also enjoy the glee with which she plays the Communists in Twilight Struggle. (She was a Young Pioneer. She has form.)
