there are no recounts in AL,
CNN said there is a recount if the margin is less than 1%, but Jones is leading by more than 1% right now, with 99% of the votes in.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I was mistaken. The Alabama Supreme Court stayed an order that ordered the preservation of the digital images of the paper ballots. It basically calls into question the security of the ballots. I read something quickly and didn't immediately follow up.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
According to Rebecca Solnit, "Alabama law requires a margin of 0.5% for a recount. The current #ALSen margin is 1.47%. "

From what I've been reading, Moore can sue for a recount with the current numbers, but if it's granted it's on his own dime. I'm torn between wanting it to happen so he can lose again, bleed his campaign coffers dry, & keep Republicans justifying support of a sexual predator in front of the national news, and being worried the "good ol' boy" network would manage to find another 30,000 Moore votes once it knows that's the target number.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
AL SOS said there'd be no recount. And he's a sumbitch that wanted Moore to win. I think it's over for Roy Moore.
Roy Less.
Roy Fewer?

Matt, thanks for taking care of the injured kitty. I'm glad he let you! Will he be put up for adoption after surgery, or go back to his feral ways?

I'm aiming for adoption; probably keeping him boarded with the vet until he's well enough to be an appealing candidate. I don't want to put him back in the same situation he was injured in, since I'm worried his own clumsiness or lack of fear regarding cars may have caused it. Plus, he's so friendly and non-aggressive he'll make an excellent pet for someone.

Yay, Doug Jones, the new US Senator from Alabama! Never thought I'd be able to type that.
Also, I hate recipe blogger websites. So much.
Lordy, yes. I'm not here to read about your delightful afternoon in the garden with your adorable moppets—certainly not for 8 paragraphs. Just tell me how much cinnamon I need in the blasted cookies.
I put my tree up the day after Thanksgiving. It's very much a self-care thing for me, combining light, color, and the ability to pick ornaments with good associations to look at for a dark month. It's kind of like exercise—a nuisance at the time, but with long-term benefits. Except that I only have to put the tree up once a year. If I could exercise once a year and get five solid weeks of upside, I'd be much more likely to do it.

Oh, what a beautiful morning! When I gave up and went to bed last night the ass hadn't conceded yet.
