Sorry, msbelle.

I haven't heard anything about Ford not writing her opening statement.

It's clear the Republicans are going to pretend the Ford testimony didn't happen, that there aren't other allegations, that Kavanaugh is obviously being dishonest about his drinking at that time.

Ugh, sorry Maria.

Sorry, Maria. That sucks.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry, Maria.

JZ, I don't think it's a bad thing to show children that we're affected by hard things in life. I think showing that life can make us weep on the floor, but then we get up the next day and keep going, can be useful to them. It would be lovely if Matilda never had to deal with problems that weighed her down so profoundly. But if she does, it will be good that she can remember her mother doing so as well, and getting through them. Sort of like what someone or other said about fairy tales with monsters. Fairy tales don't tell kids that the world has monsters—kids already know that. Fairy tales tell kids that monsters can be survived, or even beaten.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I wouldn't blame you for wanting to slam that door so hard it breaks their foot, Maria.

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

I'm sorry, Maria. How frustrating!

5 minutes of Grassley and Hatch this morning was all I could take. Hornets and wasps.

Aargh Maria, that sucks.

I also just want to bury my head in the sand and not know what is going on in America.

Does Flake seriously want to run for president? Is that why he's not running for re-election? If so, he is seriously deluded.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Booo, Maria, boo to them!!!
