Heh. I do like this post of mine (which turned out to be prescient too).

Man, I was democratic:
Again, my biggest impulse is to try things out and see what works. I am less interested now in my own opinion, and much more interested in what the vote will tell us about the community's opinion. That's what I want. Not my way, but the way that works for the most people.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Btw, Ple, you were #14 in the Go14.
Not exactly, Ple had been going off a former count provided by DX. I suspect it didn't cover exactly the same range of posts that John H's count did. Oh, and I'd be pretty tickled if it were posting about the Gang of 14 that promoted Ple into the Gang of 14.

I totally burned out once we got the voting structure in place. I'm hardly in Bureau 2.

I bet there's a word for that in Russian.

Now tagless for your comfort.
No worries, Kat. At the moment, I'm rereadind Will in the World and Shakespeare's Wife. Germaine Greer certainly gives Greenblatt a spanking.
Can someone tell me why I feel the need to read two books at the same time? Last time I did this, I read The Gnostic Gospels and Misquoting Jesus.
G&N continue to tickle me pink.

Will in the World
I really enjoyed the section of the sonnets in that book.
Shakespeare's been much on my mind lately.

It is getting close to his birthday. I love Greenblatt's work but Greer is so right about Mrs. Shakespeare getting short shrift by his biographers.
Shit. I just heard the patter of tiny feet. That means there is a kid on my side of the bed.

Lucky! I don't get to hear the patter of tiny feet so much as feel them as Matilda kicks me in the kidneys. Well, she's grown now so there was a period of covering my junk and now she kicks me in the knees.
She and Emmett have been super cute the last couple days as they chased each other up and down the hall dueling each other with their "powers." By which I mean: socks.
Emmett suited up with boxer shorts on his head, socks hanging from his ears and socks on his hands. Throwing socks. Matilda retaliates by covering her face, extending her hands and yelling "Pchow! Pchow!" or throwing socks back while yelping "Sock Power!"
In other good news, Matilda's school pictures came back and one is super cute.

I'm afraid to go to bed for fear that tomorrow will be a repeat of today.
Please let tomorrow be better.
Argh.

Cute! Liv and Owen duel it out, too. Liv seems to favor Ice Man's freeze powers at the moment.
I'm fortunate that I can always sneek into whatever bed the kids abandon and get some sleep.
Which I should be doing now instead of watcing Office Space and surfing the Blackberry. Our internet is down--that should be cause enough to sleep.
