I smell like a mexican restaurant. Loki finds it fascinating.
Natter 67: Overriding Vetoes
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
There's a food truck here called Jose O'Malleys. Never eaten it, but sounds trippy (they have couches!)
Couches are good. We scored one tonight. And I got dish on the Clintons. Neighbor is a DC designer, friends with theirs.
So I am falling back in love with Grant Hill based on his response to Jalen Rose. I know he's an ass kicking basketball player, but he has a mind that should have chosen law school. eta: [link] to the blog where Grant responds to Rose.
Love.
I think he totally does his education from Duke proud.
Too late to see it live, but ladies, Enver Gjokaj is on Community tonight. With a Balkan accent. It'll be on demand/hulu.
Also, think Rick for the Times educator subscription link. Thinking about it. Sunday delivery with my coffee!
Have we heard from ita since earlier this morning? I hope she's sleeping a lot, but I worry.
I just read all of that after you posted, Kat.
He is very eloquent.
A good education is a privilege.
It's not an awesome day for me historically and today really decided not to ease up so I am perhaps overly emotional, but his response did make me well up a little.
There are a lot of complicated issues that get snarled up together but taking a privilege and using that try and make more lives, beyond yourself, better? I respect that.
He really does do his education from Duke proud.
Jilli, Tim Burton exhibit at LACMA. Any chance you are going?
There is much scrutinizing of the household budget and calendar, yessssss.
(Why oh why couldn't it have opened the same weekend as Bats' Day? That would have made things SO SIMPLE.)
Has anyone else with a compost heap wondered if carrots are really food? They seem to have the half-life of a Twinkie.
If you eat enough of them, they'll tint your skin orange.
So I went out to dinner with the lawyer from back east and during the dinner she referred to an online community she's been a member of since 1998 and has made some dear friends on.
::looks around suspiciously::
For all I know, she could be in a community centered around a deep love for Ukrainian sheepdogs, but I found it entertaining. And no, I have not revealed my deep familiarity with online community-building. *g*
