Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Just enjoy forwarding all inquiries and watching her flounder, Vortex. The flapping might be entertaining.

CHM is actually an older mom--mid forties and her snowflake daughter is her only child. There will be no distractions from her parenting style.

Oh, no. I was raised by one of those. Every decision outside her personal experience was a fight, when I was old enough to make it one. And her experience was not one, but two generations prior to mine at the time,so very much out of step with the other parents.

I was the target of all.her.focus. It's not surprising I grew up timid and repressed.

Okay, you who've met me are laughing your asses off. But most of it's an act, the rest was hard-won. Poor, poor Snowflake. I wish her the best.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'll send it out, but she's going to have to deal with all of the questions.

It does have her contact info, right?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Great news, Theo. I hope it's (a) a step towards something permanent and (b) a sign the economy is gearing up.

Please help me not throttle my cow-worker.

If I can't throttle my sister, you can't throttle your cow-worker.

They are, thankfully, gone for the day, sitting with my cousin. I will say the hospice facility really nice, and they've gone to a lot of effort to make families comfortable. There's a playroom, a family kitchen, chairs that make into beds and landscaping that does a great job with a small area. The ugly question is whether he's sick enough to stay there, or have to ping pong from there to home depending on his health.

Thanks for the birthday wishes!

Nope. It has her name and office location. It also says "no phone calls please!" My email says to contact her for more information. I will forward any emails that I get.

Good god, vortex.

I didn't vote for or against anyone running unionized (most of our judges) but there were some I did--some judges suck.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I got a sticker!

In classic form, I voted for: 7 democrats, 4 republicans, 2 libertarians, and a green party member. It would have been two greens, but the green party didn't actually back the other green candidate! So I was all, huh. Apparently he registered as a Green on the same day he registered to run for office. I call shenanigans. I did not vote for the judges or the school board.

I voted for a Navajo, three Hispanics, three women, and the rest white guys. One of the races will be a woman for sure, both candidates are female.

The props were all jacked up, and deceptively worded to boot.

But anyway, it's done, and like my kiddoes I am highly reward motivated and am wearing my sticker around the house.

Oooh, fascinating geek tidbit from the Giants boards:

110110 in binary? 54

(1954 being the last year we won. 11/01/10 being the date of our new championship.)
