I haven't watched this week or last week's Scandal yet, but I'm confident I can agree that Fitz is the worst,

Burrell's evening sounds pretty darn good.

So, I went to my first shabbat tonight in preparation for my darling stepson's bar mitzvah tomorrow. It was a lovely, lovely ceremony, & I am glad that I had the opportunity to see it. My stepson is handsome, smart, articulate, and he did such a magnificent job tonight, & I can't wait to see how he does tomorrow.

I'm in Allentown right now until Sunday way early in the morning when we leave, & I have had a lovely time with my husband, my mother in law and amazingly enough my son's extended family.

I was honored to participate in a reading with M's mother, and also honored to open the ark with M, his dad, mom, stepdad, baby half-brother and infant half-sister.

On a shallow note, my panic about an appropriate outfit for the evening was actually praised by many people, & I was told that I look absolutely lovely. Which made me feel very happy and very secure, because I was very nervous about it.

Looking forward to the ceremony tomorrow and the party afterword! M picked a special song for me to dance with him with!

I adore him.

aww, Strix. this is how it is supposed to be. So glad you are having a good time

Strix, I'm so glad everything is going so well! And that your outfit worry was for naught.

Ahem.

FUNGUS?! In the BRAIN?! And they don't tell us how it gets there or what to do about it? Holy carp, brain fungi.

A PAC, set up to finance attack ads against Seattle's Socialist City Council woman Kshama Sawant has apparently decided to call itself "Neighbors for Banks". According to Sawant's campaign managers this is a real PAC, with officers from the banking community not a satirical hoax. [link]

Part of me still wonders if the Yes Men have outdone themselves in terms of verisimilitude; until exposed as a hoax, I'm going assume this is real.

Yeah, I figure that's not spoilery because I would have posted it after watching any episode of Scandal ever.

While I was at the vet er last week, they had Scandal on the check in tv and the tech and I bonded over how Mellie was our favorite character because she's so awful but true to her awful code.

Off to Marathon day market! Then cheering.

Timelies all!

Need to go pick up prescription refills, and would like to make my monthly trip to the comic book store. Otherwise, try to clear some stuff from the DVR.

Dentist, check. Library, check. Luckily my mother got her car back from the shop, so we don't have to take the bus to see my father. After that, it will be all cooking and lazing. Maybe some cleaning, I guess.

I recently canceled my TiVo season pass for scandal. I stopped watching the last few episodes at the end of last season, because Mellie was about the only character I still liked or cared about.
