May the 4’s be with you
at the Sunday Doldrums?
I’m having a major hot flash. Got any ice around here?
Ahhh…thanks you two!
So was this because you had spicy food and coffee for dinner and then sat in a sauna while feeling stressful and partaking of vigorous exercise?
I think I got it wrong. I sat in a vat of 4-alarm chili. Was that not a good idea?
well as someone who dislikes kidney beans, I’m always willing to call that a bad idea.
Don’t worry, I always use black beans.
this is much better … sn, just picture yourself diving into that frosty lake … π
I think it’s working, Miss O. π
this evening? I notice we never get the ice cream flavor du jour anymore.
about all the stuff I need to get done in one week.
Il y a crème glacée au chocolat … π
is to take your towel and your chocolate ice cream to work.
which one?
This one.
lol
feel like not panicking?
I just set the house and fire alarms off cooking dinner … :/
spicy food.
(we switched from smoke detectors to heat detectors downstairs to fix that problem)
I might not find Noods for a few days … LOL
not a fan of piercingly loud noises, eh?
and b/c it sets the house alarm off, it’s double the piercing pleasure.
ours is in with house alarm too but it doesn’t, thank goodness, make the sirens go off.
But 5 minutes ;later she will want the heat on again. LOL I went through that with my mom and after she rolled down all the windows in the car when it was 10 degrees, I told her she had to go on hormones or I would never visit her agin till she was through the change. LOL
109th Congress is over thank goodness
I finally got the podcast done. LOL

Is it just me or does this remind anyone else of the Sistine chapel?
It’s you. LOL but it is a cute picture.
ARe you sure? Isabelle looks fat and cherubic to me, and she’s reaching out to Hopeful, Jr.
I have this vision of a nose getting slapped or at least that’s what Jerry the cat use to always do to Billy the Beagle. I am not much of a cat person anyway. Jerry the cat was the first and last cat that will ever be in my home.
See, I have this stereotype of gay men having fluffy white cats that they sear fresh tuna steaks for and dress them in little Valentino collars.
LOL My animals have real names, eat real dog or cat food the one time I had one. Their collars are regular… not sequined. I dislike cats and I really dislike fru-fru dogs. A friend of mine has 5 chihuahas(sp) and says if he dies they are mine. I keep telling hjim to make sure he has their papers where I can find them so I can sell them. LOL
I don’t really like fru-fru dogs either. I like mutts and labs and hounds.
But I do love cats because they’re so independent. And if they allow you to pet them you just feel so damn flattered!
Jerry the cat was 15 years old when I moved in with Don and that cat hated me until Don died and then wanted to be my friend. I tolerated cats before that but now…..
I thought HJ was just waiting for Isabelle to make a play for that purple toy and then … wham!
HJ was made out of jello at that particular moment after playing with a pointer and a lemon and white basset hound for almost 2 hours at the dog park. She never moved.
So you’ve found the solution to her following you everywhere.
I get about 2 hours of relative peace for every hour she spends at the dog park.
to pretend to be another basset hound.
or get a puppy for Hopeful Jr for Christmas
I’ve been thinking about that, but luckily even the kids have talked me out of it.
And besides, it will be so much easier to drive HJ up here to meet her HS with only one dog in the car.
If I can swing a 5 year old Volvo wagon you’re on. My crappy minivan is on its last legs and very embarrassing to drive. Very screechy.
you’re going to try to steal Colin’s car?
No, his is 12 years old. But after riding in it and seeing how ridiculously comfortable it is I want one.
We has a volvo 240 for 11 years. It was a fine vehicle. Parts were expensive though.
I always have two dogs so that they keep each other company while I am at work or a political event. LOL
I immediately thought of this:
LOL, Olivia! I love that. π
ROTFLMAO!!!!!
you have to see this holiday cartoon. LOL
http://www.toilette-humor.com/christmas/tour_santas_workshop.shtml
I’m so annoying with the animal pics today.
I love her eye on you … LOL
I think that HJ is not convinced that you are entirely trustworthy.
I was creeping toward her saying ‘don’t licl me, stay, no, stay, don’t lick me!’
Did it work? It never works with Sniff; it’s more like red flag/bull.
Good evening all. It was an exhausting day.
If I never see another Christmas cookie again …
but at least they’re all finished and ready for the parties π
Anybody around?
I’m around but I am reading up on the tragic events of our world. What are you doing?
folding laundry and reading about Colin Powell and our broken military.
What tragic event happened today that I missed – or are you just speaking generally of the state of the world?
our country is headed for disaster and it’s like pulling teeth to get anyone to take it seriously. What does Tom Vilsack have to do with anything? What does Time Magazine’s People of the Year have to do with it?
They have nothing to do with it. They are diversions. People in a crisis with no power to avert it often look for diversions.
Like people sitting on a plane that’s dumping fuel because it might have to make an emergency landing — they have no control over the situation, they can’t influence the situation, so they try to divert their thoughts somewhere else.
are we dumping fuel? I think that might be a good idea.
no, our pilot is too incompetent to know that we should that precaution.
What would you have us do? Even if all of our attention was on the situation and we weren’t diverting ourselves with Time Magazine, the holidays, and thoughts of a presidential election 2 years off? What could we do?
I don’t know.
I wish there was more understanding about the critical situation we are in from the blogosphere. I wish we understood that we don’t have the luxury of positioning for partisan advantage. We must push for a broader bipartisan understanding and rejection of our leadership. I guess I am discouraged by the lack of sophistication I am seeing from some of my peers.
Because they aren’t writing in depth about the situation, like you are? Or because you disagree with what they ARE writing?
I just think they are unable to understand the depth of the problem or to reach out to people on the right that do understand.
sorry, I’m not following you on this.
Is this a comment on the quality of TX Unmuzzled’s diary (whoever he/she is) or the comments to it (which I haven’t read) or just an example of someone who you think doesn’t understand the depth of the problem?
Or is the David Brooks quote meant to harken back to our disagreement last week and your belief that the Republican Elite will cause the president to be impeached? (And just because you aren’t feeling well doesn’t mean I’m going to agree with you on that.)
How to put it?
The Republican power structure is done with Bush. They are looking to move on. They are looking to protect not only their party, but their business interests and their country. They really don’t care or even relate to the grassroots of the party. They are beyond that. That’s what Brooks is referring to.
They are ready to make a deal. And we pretend like the GOP is run out of Tuscaloosa instead of Battery Park. If the Dems would wake up, they would realize that the establishment is ready to concede defeat and all they asking is that we please try to limit the populist backlash.
As much as I want a much deserved populist backlash, we have to take what we can get right now. If they are willing to make revolution, we must be grateful. David Brooks understands, why don’t more of left blogostan?
Without agreeing or disagreeing with your ultimate premise…
Most of left blogistan is (justifiably) suspicious of anything that comes out of the Republican Party, especially calls (direct or indirect) for bipartisanship.
Most of left blogistan is suspicious that the inept leaders of the Democratic Party will find a way to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory, and one way to do that is to trust any spokesperson for the Republican party who seems to be calling for bipartisanship.
Most of left blogistan has spent their entire time in blogistan fighting the right and doesn’t know how to do anything but attack. The idea of proposing that deals can be made with the Republican Elite is difficult for them to fathom. The idea that they could sell this idea to their readers without looking like a sellout is even more difficult for them to fathom.
And most of left blogistan is in a holding pattern right now brought on by burnout from the recent election and a feeling that nothing can be done until the Dems take power on the Hill anyway. There is no one in a position to make a deal — yet. Or, to put it another way, you don’t announce that you’ve made a deal until you have the power to make the deal (if this is even the kind of deal you announce, anyway).
So in the meantime left blogistan diverts themselves with other stories.
I love and depend on you Mary. And you are right. But we need to get serious. No one is being serious.
LOL! Your fever must be back.
I love you right back Martin. And I depend on you to find the way through this mess that we’re in. Don’t worry. We’ll get serious. Just give us a couple of weeks.
And on that happy note, I’ll leave you. G’night.
I stumbled into the wrong cafe a second ago, anyone alive?
Your tag is false advertising.
I was in a pissy mood on Friday due to the Swift raids and then forgot. Does this help to make it up?
I don’t see anything? Was there supposed to be a picture?
I gotta go to sleep anyway, I have a busy day tomorrow. I’ll check back tomorrow.
G’night Manny.
yeah, there was a pic. have a good night.
