Two Things...


Mac has finally convinced me to rent Glee. She was the only one who hadn't seen it yet. Well, we finished the first 4 episodes and we are hooked, of course.
All that dancing and singing and without anybody getting voted off. Awesome.
I can't even believe I am singing along to Journey and I Want to Sex You Up.
Jeez. It kinda reminds me of a parody of modern day John Hughes movie/musical but even kookier. Really can't believe this one hooked me.


AND...........





Check out Chester. My friend Darrin
has a new puppy and he's fricken adorable.
This is the kind of dog Matt has always
wanted and I never did.
Chester may have changed my mind.
Really. This dog is just ridiculous, is he not?!!!

I hope people VOTE.

(Late night political blogging. Always a mistake, but I can't help it.)
Just saw Obama on Jon Stewart. That man can actually answer a direct question.
God I hope everyone who voted for him votes on Nov. 2nd because the alternative is completely backward and insane. Maybe he's just so well spoken and candid that he has again bewitched me...or maybe I am reminded when he speaks that he is a man who is not only really smart, but is working really hard and getting as much done as he can in every possible direction and is actually accomplishing a lot more than many of us liberals give him credit for. Yes we'd all love a Zinn or Chomsky-like president but the truth is that those kind of men don't want the job and never get elected...nor do those kinds of men have it in them to get the job done because they would refuse to compromise with all the greedy fools, and it would be all-or-nothing and we'd most likely end up with nothing...
Anyway, I think we will be much better off in 2 more years than we ever anticipated 2 years ago. And I just hope that it will be enough to re-elect him in 2012. I would definitely be interested to see what 8 years of Obama would mean for this country. And I think it would take at least that long to undo some of the serious damage caused during the previous presidency.

Feeling Halloweenie







This kid has always had a kinda
loosey-goosey-kooky-
cool-and-wooly-wildness about him.
He's a bit of a rock star.
And this is his first costume of choice,
worn to the Pre-School Halloween Ball.
