Man, you would think that a crisis of this proportion would get someone to can the bullshit for a while, but I guess not. My cousin seems to see her mother's death as more of an inconvenience for her than an unfortunate loss. Mary babysat for Paige and Reid all the time, and now it would considerably harder for her to do so, for obvious reasons ( Read more... )

My brain hates me lately, and I hate it right back. It has conspired against me to not allow sufficient sleep. Since winter break, whenever I have a day off I find it far too easy to stay up until the small hours of the morning, and after a day or two, I'm right back to some bullshit of getting up at 8 in the evening and going to bed around noon ( Read more... )

Judge Overrules Florida Ban on Gay Couples Adopting.

I sent a snippy email to the Minnesota GOP a few days ago, in response to receiving a venerable flood of ridiculous flyers from them. But, it matters not now. Mwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!! And no, it's not about party. It is about change, and I know it sounds cliched, but Obama will be a breath of fresh air for this country, nay for this WORLD. ( Read more... )

In driving for the first time in a month on Sunday, I finally had a good reason for using the horn. And thus, I used it. Some damn sons of whore skateboarders were skateboarding down DuPont Avenue, and they refused to move over despite the fact that in the event of Scrawny Suburban Shit wearing Tony Hawk™ gear vs. 1992 Camry, the car always wins ( Read more... )

Thursday was a bit of a mixed day. Work was uneventful. In the afternoon, I gots a ride to Lake Phalen with a couple of fellow students from Limnology, where we had a three hour lab out on the ice. Mind you, it had been 40 degrees for two days, so the ice was covered near ankle deep in spots with water and slush. And of course, upon trying to ( Read more... )
