We started the day with a photo drive which netted next to nothing. It was too cold to be out shooting. We stopped for a while to sled at the arboretum, but the wind made that too chilly to stay long. Mostly we spent the day cleaning, an endeavor that has left me especially cranky. I just want big fluffy blankets, tea, knitting and maybe some Buffy. I am consoled by the fact that I have 2 days left in my weekend and Miss W’s room finally looks habitable again.

Finally. Friday. I don’t think I’m the only one who was convinced that this was the longest week ever. But, it is over. Hello 3 day weekend! And – thanks very much to a hockey tournament tomorrow – there will be no skating.  And that means three whole days of sleeping in. Unprecedented! Of course, I’ve reached that point that every parent does, where sleeping in means 8:00am. You know what I mean. Even if your kids let you sleep, you can’t do it any more. That’s alright. At least I can enjoy my morning tea in my pajamas for a few days.
These guys sound like the Killers Jr. But I really like this song.
I would have really loved a snow day today.
What a silly word: mansuetude
Sorry, but what the world needs now is not more infringement on our Constitutional rights. What is this liberal obsession with controlling everyone?
Krugman. Has that jackass ever been right about anything?
If you honestly believe that the right had fuck all to do with the tragedy in Tucson, you are a complete moron. Sarah Palin “incites violence” but POTUS can use all the “violent and vitriolic rhetoric” he wants and it’s perfectly reasonable? You may think you can have it both ways, but you can’t.
A good piece from Krauthammer.
We’re on the last season of Deadwood. I’ll be sorry when it’s over.
When is Chuck back?
Argh updates. Computer, I do not wish you to restart just now.
Fiery.
DHS is out of control. And has been for a long time.
Ooh! Bond 23 is back in business! mmmmDanielCraigmmmm
Neat! Accuweather now has a migraine weather forecast.
Wow. Illinois. So glad I don’t live there.
I’ve temporarily lost the trail. The temptation to start over.
I don’t even know why I let that woman bother me, but I do.
What’s up with the “memorable stories” thingamawhatsit on fb? I was tired and that’s somehow memorable?
I need to clean out the refrigerator.
Damn. Car trouble for the mister.
There is actually a company called Earthlust. huh. They sell $16 water bottles.
Stupid. Twitchy. Eye.
Oh boy.
Well that’s a sad sad screech for attention if ever there was one.
“We must reject the idea that every time a law’s broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.” ~ Ronald Reagan
Um, yeah, this is hilarious. Thank you, bunny.
This here is a day without end.
Well that was not my best test taking effort ever.
I could be wrong, but I just don’t think your food counselor would approve of your eating that party size bag of Combos.
Well, at least I was consistent.
I’ve never seen Big Bang Theory.
Sure, I’d like to like fish or oatmeal or yogurt. But that doesn’t mean it’s going to miraculously happen.
Must remember to bring Ripper to work tomorrow.
Yes, I am serious, actually.
Indifference.
Ha. oops. That was a close one.
I see, you wandered off and left me without telling me you were going.
Putting out fires with gasoline.
I was going to make today’s post all about how horrible my Saturday had turned out to be. I was going to tell you about the breakfast that didn’t happen and the flat tire on the way to ice skating that made us late and all the other things that were shaping my day.
But then we got home from ice skating and within the hour senseless tragedy was visited upon the people in AZ when a man gunned down Congresswoman Giffords and several of her staff and constituents.
My day? Small potatoes.
