My nephew is in Mother Jones: [link] He looks like a badass.
That's awesome, Kat! I didn't know your nephew was a Coastie. And he's on the Healy, which is awesome.
And did you know the Healy is named after the first black American to captain a US military vessel?
In political news, the only way I'm going to stay sane through the first week of November is by reading Charlie Pierce every day.
On foreign policy, Ryan occasionally rose, gasping, to the level of obvious neophyte.
Heh.

One last post before I go to bed: Baby walruses playing in a kiddie pool.

Oh, goodness, how much have I skipped.
I was supposed to skip a bit more, tomorrow, but due to shabbat and all, I won't have any computer access then, and I want to post already that, according to the Buffista Calendar, Saturday, the 13th, will be a double Buffista event, with two birthdays: Matt the Bruins fan's as well as Cashmere's.
So lots of early wishes to the both of them!
Oh, and short Fridays and lovely weekends to all!
Morning. It feels ridiculously early here, though I know it's not on the east coast (which means I'll have about 80billion emails when I get off this plane...)
The jeans I am wearing are comfortable everywhere except the calves. Which are way too tight. Damn you hipsters! I wanted a pair of straight leg jeans, why do you make manufacturers think people with a size 14 ass and thighs magically have skinny calves?!? (mine aren't even that big, relatively!)
I probably won't be around tomorrow, so
Early Happy Birthdays, Matt and Cashmere!
Katie tried to convince me we needed a baby walrus. I told her we could get one AFTER we get a minipig.
because what you both need is more stuff to manage. adorbs.
I have new silver low-top converses and I wore them to work today. happiness.
I took mac shopping yesterday because pants are not fitting him correctly and we really needed to try things on to figure it out. He was a trooper for someone who hates shopping. 2 pairs jeans, 2 pairs workout pants, 4 l/s tees, 1 jacket, and 2 pairs of shoes. $180. That should be it for the winter.
ION, It's Friday It's Friday. Gotta get down on Friday.
Friday...emotional and whisky hangover. Oh joy.
Luckily I already have my 40 in for the week and just need to finish off a few projects.
I missed watching the debate last night, but TIVO was supposed to have grabbed it so I'll watch at some point today.
