Also, for every mad, crazy sports fan I have ever known

As someone who doesn't really follow sports, and who doesn't really follow any team in particular, this sketch really rings true for me.

I am just going to keep putting up baby/knitting pictures.

My brain is too fried for anything else.

The yarn is, from top to bottom: Dream in Color Smooshy (Wisterious), Sundara Tulip in silky merino, Sweet Georgia Speed Demon in Firefly (an old colorway), Tahki Cotton Classic in I don't remember the colorway name, and Dream in Color Smooshy (Some Summer Sky).

It isn't that I have less to say lately . . .

. . . it is that I don't have time to write it down.

So here is another baby picture:

So, Matter-Eater Lad and I Learned Something a Couple of Weekends Ago.

In Minneapolis there is no minimum age limit to get a library card.

Crap weather, blah blah blah blah

It is stupidly gross out, and grey, and most people would show you lovely flowers to cheer you up. I, on the other hand, present you with Manny and the Piano:



It makes me smile every time.

For everyone who really, really likes Obama or Clinton . . .

. . . and who can't bear the thought of voting for the dem they don't like come November if that person becomes the nominee,

Remember all of this about John McCain. Especially this:

The Supremes. The day the next president takes office, five of the nine Supreme Court justices will be over 70. John Paul Stevens will be 88; Ruth Bader Ginsburg, 75; Anthony Kennedy, 71; Stephen Breyer, 70; and, I smile as I write this, Antonin Scalia is 72.

The next president will probably pick one or two of their replacements; maybe more, if he or she is reelected. McCain, who favors the repeal of Roe v. Wade, promises conservative audiences, "We're going to have justices like [John] Roberts and [Samuel] Alito."
