Unrelatedly, I hate it when clicking "save" on my spreadsheet makes Excel crash. It's like it's mocking me.
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
Is there a limit on how long an "acting" AG can head up the DOJ?
According to this article, "Whitaker, who has publicly criticized the Mueller investigation, by law can serve as acting AG for a maximum of 210 days."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I did read some people saying that Whitaker would have to recuse himself, since he's made his feelings about the Mueller investigation known or whatever. I have no idea if that's accurate, nor do I think he would do any such thing, but it delights me to enjoy Trump's reaction if it happened.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Politics aside, can we all agree that Martha McSally is a great name?

What is even happening?
Thank you, Karl.
"Martha McSally" sounds like a name your second grader makes up, when she has to write an original story and wants to use the names of both of her best friends, so they don't get mad.

Yes! I think that's why I like it.

Ooh, that is 100% accurate.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Martha McSally, who lives down the alley.

Love Martha McSally. Love Buffistas. Don't love getting phone notifications in the middle of the night for another mass killing.
I had read something yesterday about how traumatizing the election in Florida was for the MSD kids who worked so hard on the GOTV efforts for gun control candidates. I just want to hug them all this morning.

In local politics, my state representative battle is ongoing. The district winds along the coast including the oceanfront mansions and has been Republican for a long time. ~78,000 votes cast and the Rep candidate is up 124 votes while they count the provisional and mail in and military and so forth. It was 243 votes last night so making headway. Both men are moderates and agree on most issues. Digits crossed that the recount yields victory.
eta: and at least they haven't called my senate race yet because automatic recount. Despondent over the notion of Rick Scott representing me.
