I need to finish like half a dozen projects and clear out another few garbage bags full of stuff from my house. Then maybe I will start to experiment with upcycled sweater projects.
Natter 70: Hookers and Blow
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Lee, you should maybe still be on vacation. Is I think what the universe is saying....
I'm torn on this because the only reason I feel comfortable voting for a third party (with no chance of winning) is that I live in a state 100% guaranteed to go for Obama. There is no chance I could give Romney an edge by voting for Jill Stein.
Yeah, I am totally fine with friends in non-swing states voting for third parties. I can understand that. ...but friends in swing states are ON NOTICE!
I have scheduled eye surgery (not Lasik, but same concept) for January, so I can sock away FSA money next year. Eek!!
I am in love with this:
Oo, I am too. That is just delightful.
I am grading and feeling disheartened. The previous section muffed the first essay but did great on the second. This group did fine on the first but now they are blowing this one. What did I do? Did I fail to come across as sufficiently hard ass?
Lee, I'm sorry your day has sucked so far.
I'll be voting in my town's Town Hall. I could vote today, but I'll be staffing a voter information booth outside the town hall Saturday morning, so I figure I'll just go on in when my shift is done. Plus, the farmer's market is right next door on Saturdays, so I'm planning on making a "yay, small town + civic engagement = delightful" morning of it all. Then a wine tasting that afternoon and dinner out with some friends afterwards. Saturday's shaping up nicely.
Re: in jokes, Paul, Cass, and Jilli.
Lee, damn. That's just. Damn.
I'm not blanket anti-war, and I'm in favor all sorts of things that taxes require, such as actual proper socialized medicine and all, but for his current party, Johnson's not too bad.

Roads, fire departments... Little things.
Did we know that Roseanne Barr is on the ballot for President?
I just spent five minutes looking for the hair clip I was sure I had on my shirt or skirt. It's in my hair.
Liese, I like your choices and agree with you.
Eliminating the electoral college would only change who feels like voting is pointless. Probably to "everyone west of the Mississippi."
I just realized that I left my umbrella on the bathroom floor at home, and of course, it's now raining.
I brought my umbrella to work.
Then at lunch I checked my Weather Channel app and it said 10% chance of rain for the next hour, so I didn't take my umbrella to lunch. So I got rained on on my way back.
