It's because I'm mysterious and unknowable.
hhrrruummpph. People have always laughed at me when I have suggested that I am mysterious and such, but then they laugh just as much when I say I am an open book. I am a rock, I am an island.
Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My school had a mock election a few days ago and the students "elected" Obama. If that makes you feel any better.
Listen to the children--they are our future.

In other holiday news, msbelle, I won one of the AAI auctions! So that's nice.
oh, cool, what did you get? I got a scarf from Ethiopia, red, black and white striped.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm not telling, because who knows where it might end up! Also I wish I had bid more on some things, once I remembered donation + free shipping.

It's weird--the rational side of my brain believes Nate Silver, so if I were a betting man I'd bet on Obama. But my emotional side is sure something weird will happen and Romney will win.
This is me, too.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
The economists in my twitter feed are puzzling over one aspect of the polls that I have found curious for weeks: why is Romney supposedly up in the national polls, but Obama is up in key states? That didn't make sense population-wise and what I knew of Obama's leads in blue states vs. Romney's in red states.
Silver has a long article on this point, and I don't doubt his methodology at all, I think it is sound. I do think there is a bit of a systematic problem with some polling though.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Back at work today. Catching up on things that people outside the Northeast dumped onto my desk over the past couple of days.
We got through the storm okay. Cleared a lot of space on the DVR. So much that I may be soccered out for a bit. Of course, just as the MLS playoffs start, with DC United in for the first time in 5 years....

At this point, I am clinging to Nate Silver like he's a damn life raft.
