I overheard this today at my OBY/GYN office.  A woman who presumably works there walked through the Dr's office hall asking this question:

"Does anyone need any more instruments sharpened?"

We have a sliding glass door that leads outside the back of our house.  Our two cats love it because it gives them a birds-eye view of the birdfeeders.  The birdfeeders, in turn, attract the squirrels who live in the woods beyond the deck.   Birds, squirrels, and even raccoons... sometimes the cats sit with their noses pressed against the glass door all day long watching the kitty porn show.  

Like this morning.

Thank you for all of your support in the stove saga.  It has been "repaired", even though it was not in fact broken to begin with. In any case I have already wasted far too much time thinking about the stove and so, people, today we are moving on.


Today's hero is Judy Bachrach, contributing editor for Vanity Fair magazine.

In this fabulous video clip, she takes on some pin-headed Fox anchorwoman about the appropriateness of the most expensive inauguration in the history of this nation ... during a time of war and the time when the national debt is at an all-time high ...  yeah, let's party!

Awesome video clip from Fox "news"

I haven't mentioned lately how much I hate the current administration for two reasons: first, I'm somewhat distracted by the miniature human doing the backstroke in my uterus, and secondly I'm trying to block its very existence out of my brain -- the adminstration's existence, not the human's.

So, for old times sake: I hate this administration and am nowhere near finished criticizing it.

For example, did you know that your president thinks that is great when "brown-skinned" people self-govern?  Thanks to Fabulous Husband for the link to this truly unbelievable story.
