Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm going to do this one and this one and possibly this one.

Congratulations to the BonBobs!

I am not in bandom, but I do enjoy the occasional picspam that flashes across my flist.

I dearly hope that your helpful ER visit is still being helpful, ita.

There was more, but my brain is a sieve.

Love the Obama pumpkins!!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Hee! To me, the whole pumpkin-movement is indicative of the positive direction that Obama's campaign as a whole has. It's happy-making and creative and gives me warm fuzzies.

Yup. For kicks, I googled McCain pumpkin images and got bupkis.He doesn't inspire, apparently.

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

Interesting article here about changing party identification. Basic thesis: the Dems have become the party of the economically dynamic parts of the country - the metropolitan centres - while the struggle towns of the Rust Belt and the Appalachians are becoming redder. [link]

ION, this site gives an interesting graphical representation of the changing state of the polls over the election campaign. [link] It uses the data from electoral-vote.com.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

He sat down so I could tell him what treatment regimen I was on, and it seemed important to him that I was being properly treated outside the ER as well as within.

And it worked. I'm home with no migraine, and I didn't have to fight anyone for meds while in the ER.

That sounds like a miracle, frankly.

“Not dead yet!”

Reading concert postings over coffee is better than the funny papers.

And juliana, thanks ever so for the castrati imagery. Poor wee Patrick—even though he sounds nothing like a castrato. In a music history class, we heard a really old recording of the last surviving castrato from the twenties and it was eeeeeeeerie.

And ita, that's so freakin' wonderful about the ER doc-- and such a shame that we should be so shocked by you receiving decent treatment.

hip deep in pie

I think ita should take that attending home and call him George.

Congrats to the bonBob's.

Oh yeah, I heard that, too. You may think that countertenors sound weird (Wisit off Top Design, I'm looking at you) but nothing to compare to an actual castrato.
