I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

I'll start--mine is all the fashion detail posts, plus the polka dot dress I am wearing (a lot of the LAistas saw it at brunch last time I was there--it's my Kat dress)

HA! I know that dress! I love polka dots. An awful lot. I wore a polka dot dress on the first day of school this year.

I am having issues with Grace's new school. They have a nurse. ONE DAY A WEEK. Hello. Medically fragile child? I am not convinced the health aide can do shitall to help since she seemed like a moron today (she started today... school started a week ago).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I just read where someone was adamantly stating that heteroromantic people were NOT STRAIGHT. Am I missing something, or aren't they usually? Like not something you need to yell about?

Punishingly Intricate

The Beasties played at my 18th birthday party.

WHOA! Says I and my mister. One of my friends in SF worked for Jello's label for years actually. But never arranged for anyone cool to play at my bday celebrations.

sara, I don't think I'm fb friends with Hanne but I know her through Atomic. She's pretty awesome.

In other Smalltimore news, I don't want to talk about who I did vote for for City Council on my current fb post about the shitty turnout because I did NOT vote for my friend's husband. Ha! He currently has 30 votes...not 30%. 30 votes. The incumbent and front runner who we hate only has less than 300 votes. She's only 58 votes behind the guy I did vote for so I'm really hoping a couple dozen more people voted for him. The small turnout is depressing as eff.

I ended up talking to Hanne a LOT at the past 2 cookie-offs for some reason.

One problem with smalltownitude is when you know the politicals personally. I SO WANT the incumbent to lose, damnit.

I didn't vote for my friend's husband because he said something assholey in my presence years ago. Don't cross me, future politicos! (And I do like what the guy I did vote for is saying. He seems to be pro-locally owned businesses at least.)

Oooh, and tell me who you DID vote for. I won't spread around. Not my district, I'm lucky to have Mary Pat.

Now tagless for your comfort.

One of my teammates created a poster for our upcoming derby mixer and she used the image from a cover of a roller derby book. I'm not happy about it because I feel it infringes on the illustrator's copyright. She and her boyfriend claim people do it all the time but it still left a bad taste in my mouth.

What say you, buffistas?
