I may not be an outlaw in Texas after all.
State Senator Bob Deuell (the bills senate sponsor) sent an email this afternoon saying: “Now I am 100% positive the lighting design industry is safe. The Governor's office called this morning and said Governor Perry will veto the entire bill if that language remains in HB 2649. Consider it done. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that this language will be removed from this bill.”
Now I just need to remember that even if my back feels better later, I shouldn't pick up my son, no matter how much he whines.
Yep, that's the problem with painkillers. The "wahey I can run round and do lots of exciting things and climb moutains and everything! ... ah, not so much" effect.
Shit. Today was recycling and I forgot to put it out.
The stats on sites I've run indicate that the majority of web use is during the week. (Also, mostly during the work day. Take that, productivity!) Look how much posting falls off here during the weekend. I know several people who swear that Sunday is the best day to post ads on eBay.
Yay hugs! I'll have to show the boys this one.
Pls. report back - are they and their schoolmates (that sounds old-fashioned. Why?) huggers?
I drive every morning to drop off at high school. I can report that I see lots of strange things happening, but the only hugs I see are the occasional couple or mom's dropping off their sprog. Maybe it's too hot for hugs here.
OMG. I've never been more glad to be out of high school:
I saw that piece earlier today, and was confused. Because that kind of hugginess was creeping me out when I was in junior high. Twenty years ago. So it's odd to see it described like it's some startling new thing These Kids Today do.
The WaPo's Style section often seems to "discover" things several years after they're common, but this sets some kind of a record. I'm waiting for a follow-up about how some young people enjoy social events where they move their bodies in time to energetic music.
We have achieved cupcakes. Of course, Olivia only considers them a poor delivery method for the chocolate frosting and licks the frosting off while eating only the edges and the top. The poor, bare bottom of the cupcake is left for Mama.

This is Emaryn methodology as well.
