Just a couple of quick something-or-others while I prepare to get all my hair removed this morning. My reward? A trip to the noodle shop at Sakura Square.
- I was incredibly reassured by the debate last night. Biden managed to keep his feet where they belonged (as opposed to squarely in his mouth) most of the time. Much better than I feared. Oh, and apparently there aren’t enough hockey moms out there to satisfy someone, so she had to trot out the “soccer mom” references. *snicker*
- I thought for some reason it would be a good idea to play the Debate Drinking Game with a full bottle of absinthe (edited to add: it started out full – not that I drank the whole bottle). Um, no – it’s not. I feel okay this morning, surprisingly.
- Now that Colorado is officially the new Ohio, our Secretary of State is proving himself to be a major tool. If you’ve either newly registered, moved or perhaps didn’t vote in either the caucuses or primary this year, check now to make absolutely certain you’re registered. Biden was right – this election is incredibly important.
- The day I’ve been waiting for for over a year happened today: School Girl gave me a hug and kiss, then ran off to join her friends in line. Didn’t even look back to see if I was still waiting. I should be happy, but I feel teary instead. Not easy to see them growing up.
- My friend in PA is getting her surgery today. I’m more worried about the aftermath than the actual surgery.
Have a good weekend.






Wait. You feel okay the next morning after an entire bottle of la fée verte? Are you Superwoman? The fact that you got teary at least reassures me that you’re still human and not an alien here to take over the world.
No, no – I’m not that much of a professional drinker! I started out with a full bottle – I think it’s 1/4 of the way down now. I’m surprised that I feel as good as I do, though – I’ve had bad hangovers with absinthe before.
Not sure about the alien part, though.
