Things Are Getting Weird

Just enjoying an unusually quiet morning Chez Prematurely Grey. (Tech Support Guy left for L.A. long before dawn and I’m taking a quick breather before diving into FullFundraiserFury08–36 Hours and Counting.) Dealing with email. Fast-forwarding through Morning Joe. (There’s the dirty little secret du jour–I have a thing for more than one Joe. Sadly, Morning [...]

Hodge Podge Lodge Tuesday

Item Number One: Krugman wins the Nobel Prize in economics!*

Item Number Two: Rapunzel Sarah proclaims her joy in being found completely innocent!
Item Number Three: My new gay boyfriend alludes to my paranoid email in a subsequent post (maybe)!

Winken, Blinken and Nod

I’ll admit it–I’ve been all over the place the last couple of weeks. I haven’t posted anything on this site for over a week because every time I think, “Here it is, my grand pronouncement on Blabbedy Blah,” HOLY SHIT, INCOMING!
Don’t you think it’s been like M*A*S*H* lately? Like we’re all exhausted, frozen and still [...]
