I'm going to come in tomorrow, but I'll be filling up my gas tank tonight.
A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy crap, midwest people! Stay inside!
Hey, does anyone still watch Life on Mars? I just walked by a bunch of old cars outside my neighborhood TV studio, and apparently that's what it's for. They were cool -- cabs and regular cars, and a VW bus.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Even though I'm upset with him right now, Obama is a cutie. I also love his girls and wife. Malia (is that the older girl?) is so beautiful, it's crazy.

The official portrait of our new president.
(1) I got teary. Less than a week, people!!! (2) How cool is it, that this is the first presidential portrait taken with a digital camera?
On the pronunciation of Cinncinati, if it is anything like the Missouri/Missoura debate, the ones who turn the "i" to an "a" tend to be more Southern in accent. Most people I know in Missouri say Missouri. The Missoura people are usually from Texas or someplace else. Or from the southern part of the state.
Actually, I would guess that the Cincinnat-uh people have Appalachian roots.

Yes! I watch Life on Mars. I am anxiously awaiting new eps. I watched the UK version, which I loved. I very much like the US version, too. It's been long enough that I don't remember a lot.

Neat!

Aw, Taylor's mom made me a little bead bracelet and sent over a really sweet note.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
The Missoura people are usually from Texas or someplace else. Or from the southern part of the state.
Yes, this. I still say Missoura just to see who reacts. Same with Arkansawyer instead of Arkansan. And Mississippi only has three syllables, "Mi-sipp-i."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I say Missoura too, but it's complete pretension. I do attempt to do N'Awlins decent justice, though.

Is it Cokie Roberts on NPR who says Missoura? I always notice it when she does.
I got beat in a geography bee in fifth grade by a native Louisianan who pronounce Louisiana "Loo-see-an" and thus finished before my "Loo-wee-see-an-uh."
Why do I remember that??

OK, when you see cabs outside the Drake hotel (?), know that that's right by my house.
