All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Also bon baby finally fell asleep just now after 30 minutes of banging his teething keys across the bars of the crib. I half expect him to burst into "Attica! Attica!"

I need to print out a sample ballot and make a cheat sheet with all the questions, proposals, and recommendations from the Chicago Bar Association on judges.

Me too. I wish I could find the site that consolidated a bunch of different recommendations for judges. edit: Found it! [link]

the responses from the Libertarian candidates made me want to claw my face off.

The senate candidate is a piece of work.

The status is NOT quo.

As a runner, can I just say thank you so much to all who cheer? It really does make all the difference in the world.

That is awesome.

I once went to cheer the runners in the Boston Marathon at Wellesley College, which is around the 20-mile mark, and that was awesome. I get a little teared up, thinking about people cheering for other people.

One story that always gets me is the story of the Nigerian Olympic swimmer who'd never swum in an Olympic-sized pool (I think he was Nigerian, anyway). And he was dead last in his heat at the Olympics, but people were cheering so hard for him, that he got out of the water and asked if he'd won.

I like cheering for people (though it's more - but not entirely - parades more than races here) even though I am the furthest from a runner you'll ever see.

I actually saw an awesome car magnet/bumper sticker that was the same format/font as the marathon/half marathon "26.2" and "13.1" and it just said "0.0". I NEED THAT.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Was that at the Sydney Olympics? I think I remember that one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ha!

When I lived in Boston I would go cheer for people in the afternoon, figuring those were the ones who needed it most! (I realize I could still do it, living in Somerville, but it's more of a hassle than walking down the street. And actually, I think my current job is open on Patriot's Day. Which is bullshit.)

At the marching band/social justice parade last weekend, we did a lot of specific cheering for issues, but also kids and whatnot.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I saw one of those last week and took a picture of it! Because I SO need one, too!
