Dana, that skirt is calling your name. It wants to come home to you.

Toddson, I need someone to have THAT skirt.

Timelies all!

Went to dance practice last night(it was my turn). Not that I was going to watch the debate if I was home, but I was out.

We do the vast majority of our grocery shopping at a Safeway that's a couple of miles away. It usually has a good selection of the things we need. Occasionally I'll stop at a Giant that's near my work, but only for non-perishables, as I go to pick up the little guy from daycare afterwards.

There's someone who wears that skirt, or a similar one, to the dance party at Vividcon every year. It's pretty delightful.

As someone who firmly believes that the government should NOT be run like a business (and further, that capitalism is kind of evil), I do at least understand why someone who holds the opposite belief doesn't agree with me. I think they're wrong, but at least I get where they're coming from.

Thinking Trump is a good businessman, on the other hand...

Agreed.

While I was driving home, Half.com called in response to a support request I'd sent in. They agreed to call back in an hour. It's now been an hour and a half.

I'm never going to hear from them again, am I.

So I was delighted to meet Olympian Carl Lewis. He came by a tiny Clinton headquarters in the hood to talk to maybe a dozen volunteers. He had a very interesting life story about his parents involvement in civil rights and his long relationship with Hillary. He apparently is traveling all over the country giving pep talks to volunteers and doing other things for the campaign. That level of organization by Clinton gives me hope.

Guys, how are so many people just unaware of basic facts??? HOW??? We're not in some sort of crisis of violence against the police, FFS.

A LOT, if not an actual majority, of people in the US get what passes for information solely from network news, which has been a marathon of murderous police and rioting protesters lately. Actual violent crime statistics have been on the downward trend for years, but if you're only watching the yellow journalism on television you'll be left with the impression that we live in the setting from Escape from New York.

I now have a seal bark and tonight in the pool..oh my god. I had to stop several times, times were shit, lungs are pissed. But I've got the good drugs now. And may go get a protein shake or smoothie tomorrow because I'm pretty sure not eating isn't sustainable, no matter how uninterested in food I am.

Sue that is very weird.

Ironically, NAFTA means that if I got a library job, I could get a US work visa easily.

Tell me more. Does it work the opposite way? Just in case.

Friend and I are trying to decide where to travel next year. We made a list. And we can't narrow it down. We want to go to ALL the places!!

I think it does. Technically, it looks as if they're considered temporary visas, as they're only for 3 years. Here's the Canada to US list of professions: [link]
