Thank you, David. Bobby and/or the GF and/or DH often join me, and Zoe is always willing. So it is a family affair.
Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

Go, Laura!
I baked 5 doz rummy caramelly snickerdoodles for the cookie swap. Have one more run to Target to get things I forgot, clean house and laundry and cookie swap. 38ish hrs until surgery!

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
sarameg - I just had my gallbladder removed six weeks ago so I remember the whole operation/recovery process pretty clearly - if you have any questions, profile addy is good.

I cannot even. I'm not surprised by McConnell, because he's always been a heinous shitgibbon, but Obama should have forced the issue and taken the hit. Instead he let Comey tank Clinton's chances.
Yeah, I mean, I can actually see why he thought that this was something that would perhaps skew things in the wrong direction (and unify the Rs to come behind Trump in ways they hadn't yet) and I think he wasn't wrong about that EXCEPT for Comey and company.
It's all a clusterfuck.

And now Republicans are . . . OK? with Russia controlling our election results? That's new.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I saw a post somewhere about how rich it is that the CIA is worked up about a foreign government working to install a strongman leader....

Woot!
I am old, and fat, and out of shape, yo. But 2 out of 3 of these I can do something about.
You go, Laura!
So I did go to bed at like 8:30 and stayed there until almost 7. Yikes.

lcat, thanks. I'm being pretty zen about this, not much I can do but react to what I'm dealt.
About to hop in the shower, then clean the damned house.

Everything was going so well -- I went to Target and bought All The Things, caught a bus home at the right time... and then thought I'd go to the super intense, supposedly cheaper, supermarket. They didn't have what I was really looking for, I saved about 50 cents on the other stuff I bought, and now I'm frazzled. Bah!
