Thank you for sharing that, Shir!

“Not dead yet!”

I hope the pictures, once that Nilly will approve them to be public, will clarify the things that I can't put into words. Because this post feels too little for such a joyful event.

Oh, Shir-- you did a lovely, lovely job.

What is even happening?

Shir what a beautiful account of Nilly & H's wedding. Thank you so much. I've met Nilly, and the love just pours off of her in normal (albeit happy) experiences, so I can only imagine the force of it at her wedding. I'm so happy it was so wonderful. I can't wait until she gives you some picture approval.

(Also, it sounds like you just have a blood blister on your finger. Don't worry about it. Don't poke it with anything. Wait and let your mother decide.)

Obama, off the record, called Kanye a jackass.

I don't know whether to be heartened or depressed that half the comments are along these lines:

For once Obama speaks the truth and they say it is off the record?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

He maybe should watch his mouth sometimes....

Happy birthday, Nora!

Well, he probably learned his lesson after the Gates incident. Off the cuff remarks about his personal feelings can cause a lot of shit.
