Hm, now I don't know whether to go run errands now and hope I don't get hailed on or just sit tight until it passes.
Kat, I think you're supposed to be filming Noah for YouTube. That's modern post-dentist parenting, right?

This is good--Keith Moreland has been named to replace the late Ron Santo on WGN radio Cubs broadcasts.
To quote Steve Goodman:
Have the Cubbies run right out into the middle of the field,
Have Keith Moreland drop a routine fly

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

Brenda, the Mag Mile one is already closed.
Oh, is it really? You can tell I don't get up that way very often.
In fact, I suggest that...half the demonstrations be the firefighters and other, toughest union people...the other, cookie-baking grandmas that spend their own money to get the good markers. Of course, there are people like my mom(Proud AEA member) who could fit in both categories.
Firefighters and police were exempted from his plans, but the unions are out there in the demonstrations. As are the Packers.

I'm sad that the Borders near my parents is going, but they have opened a great B&N there. I tend to do independents and B&N when I have a book need. Borders just kept getting increasingly...downscale here. And about a decade ago I had an altercation with a worker in the Glendale one.

Okay, loved the results of Westminster. A friend told me that when she realized we had a non-American judge that there might be some surprises. Wonder what he'll do at Crufts?
Got my iphone last night and was setting it up but then. . .I had to log into my wireless network.. .. guess what I couldn't remember?
Yep. Spent much time last night dealing with that and almost missed Sporting Group!
Today: doctors appts in the AM. I have my brace back - so I have the brace and my hiking boot on my right foot and a regular shoe on my left. I really need to find shoes that work with this thing. It's extremely uncomfortable.

I saw that about the Packers...right on, Packers. Ok, well, I guess I am playing a bit on the same stereotype of union members as the gov. is,(scary, blue-collar tough guys.But they say that like it's a bad thing) but in some places people are talking smack about firefighters, too, so I wasn't sure. But some union members look like my mom. Although my mom could and would kick Governor Walker's ass. She said he looks like the guy at the bar who likes to pretend he's six feet tall than won't dance with her cause she's 5'9''. But seriously, does Ed Schultz really have to yell so much? he knows he has a microphone, right?
