Also, it may be closer than people think. Between voter purging and electronic voting machines, I think Obama needs to win by a minimum of 5 points to take the presidency. His average lead across all polls? 5.5 Points. When Obama tell people not to take his victory for granted, he is not kidding.

Actually, for once the early returns might not hurt the dem side. Turnout is depressed, but dramatically more so on the losing side.

Huh - earlier today, the water was shut off in our building for some maintenance work. Now everything is back on except our bathroom sink. The toilet and shower in that bathroom work fine.
I'll call a plumber tomorrow and brush my teeth in Dylan's bathroom in the meantime, but does anyone have any ideas? Twiddling the knobs behind the sink has no effect.
In better, news, the cinnamon swirl bread I baked this afternoon is almost cool enough to eat. Nom nom nom.

I'll assume you already searched the bathroom for other knobs. So, nope, no ideas.

Yep, I tried the one behind the toilet just for kicks and got nothing.

Tourists,
Stop talking loudly outside of my building. It's annoying, and I'm considering dropping something heavy from my 3rd floor window.
Go away,

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I read that question really wrong at first.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, y'all! So far it's been a good day, with a lot of little stuff going right and a big honking amazon.com gift card from my sister. Now I have homemade lentil soup burbling on the stove and no where I need to be until tomorrow. So far 41's looking pretty nice.
Plumbing~ma to Jessica.
