Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm just hoping they will be offset by actual policy.

This is the reason I'm not furious. Warren is symbolic and not substantive.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

egad. I used to think that Bush Sr was Satan. I now think that was wrong. It's Cheney. He's got to be, right?

Unrelatedly? Keanu Reeves would make an AWESOME Cowboy Bebop! Love it!

Keanu Reeves would make an AWESOME Cowboy Bebop!

I could definitely see him doing the whole, "What happens, happens" thing that Spike was good at.

Tonight: Stop by the store on the way home and pick up the last few gift cards I need and all of my greeting cards for family. Then I have to get everything filled out, wrapped, and boxed up before going to bed.

Saturday: Post office first thing, and then the bookstore from 10-6, which should be really insano-busy. Then home to sleeeeeep!

Sunday: Pick up Dad's gift (gift set from the liquor store--he loves his B&B) and wrap that, then relax.

Monday-Wednesday, I'm supposed to work at the office, but I've got two more days of PTO to take this year, so I'm going to check with my boss on Monday if I can take 1/2 days on the Tuesday and Wednesday of both weeks remaining this year.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

the whole, "What happens, happens" thing that Spike was good at.

Ahh, when Spike was good. Might be time for a rewatch.

This weekend I have to go by New Balance and buy more crap for my sister. I'm going to have a lot of room in my bags on the way back, especially since I hope the only gift I'm receiving is the ticket home.

A coworker's 9 year old, a student assistant, and a coworker not the parent of the above, seem to be playing football in my office. Give me a freaking break.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

It's Christmas time. Why aren't more of my coworkers leaving out candy for me to take?

I think they brought it all here by mistake. OMG, sweets overload.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Here, too!
