Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Eesh, scary. Get better, kiddo!

I am not drinking, although I should be. Heading out for the weekend retreat. Next time, remind me to say no to these nebulous calls for help.

Headache has slammed in full force. Gonna try a nap. K-Bug and her boyfriend are going to take CJ to his Halloween party tonight. Unfortunately CJ's girlfriend (!!!) won't be at the part.

Now that my kids are both attached, it is my turn? Hello? Bueller?

I took five bags worth of Stuff to Goodwill. Unfortunately, that's so I can make more room for my Mom's Stuff. Still, feeling a bit more accomplished here....

Hivemind - I need t-shirt site recommendations. I currently cruise teefury, woot, and thinkgeek but am looking for more. I traditionally load CJ up with a bunch of geeky/pop-culture/literary/science t-shirts each Christmas.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The Chief Diversity Officer at Gallaudet was put on administrative leave a few weeks ago, when someone found out that she had signed a petition to make same-sex marriage illegal in Maryland. People on campus have been pretty surprised by this, because part of her job was organizing the LGBT student groups, and generally being an advocate for minorities on campus, including LGBT students, and according to pretty much everybody, she was excellent at her job and a great ally. Today, two different black church groups organized protests at the Gallaudet campus over this issue. One group was for marriage equality, the other was against marriage equality, but they were both calling for McCaskill to be reinstated. (From what I can tell from blogs and stuff, the general feeling on campus is that she should be reinstated later, but right now people want time to process and discuss and let things cool down a little.) They also seem to have not really thought through "How do we get our message across to a Deaf university?" since their protest involved chanting and megaphones. [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Although possibly red wine and candy corn is not the best mixture.

Serious Eats doesn't have a recommendation [link] so I say go for it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Suzi, maybe topatoco?

Ooh, I just saw my first tv ad for the new Joe Kennedy running for Congress, and he looks good -- redheaded, not too Kennedy-ish. He can get it, is what I'm saying. Not my vote, because I'm in the wrong district.
