Ellipses...

Seems like once a week is about all I can manage anymore... Got to wonder why in all the discussion about the budget there aren't people talking about raising taxes or about ending the war(s). Or at least not getting covered if they are... Started paying the mortgage on the new house, seems like we ought to be living there for that... It's disturbing how far down the rankings the US is dropping in some no-brainer metrics. I wonder why it isn't more disturbing to more people... My parents' house is sold. Nice to be done with that bit... The internet bought Detroit a Robocop statue. I appreciate the sentiment, but I got to figure that money could go to better use... Lots of interesting Facebook arguments this week, mostly about either the federal budget or about public employee unions. All a little heady for Facebook if you ask me... Why is it that when the going gets tough in a state legislature the minority goes to another state? I would think we could get by without that level of drama... It went and snowed again tonight, shoulda figured that sunny weather last week was a tease... I don't think I would feel safer if students were allowed to carry guns to school... Decided to bail on USITT this year. First time in over a decade I won't be attending... Seriously I miss "The West Wing." "Mr. Sunshine" isn't the same... I spent my Sunday afternoon in my office. There were things on my desk from three semesters ago. Now they're in the trash... We announced our new season at work last Friday. Curiously you won't find it on our website or Facebook page, and it wasn't included in tweets from CFA. Makes you go hmm... I watched some All Star Saturday and Friday. That event needs a writer. The game was ok, maybe even good for 5 minutes toward the end of the 4th quarter... I've been having problems with some of my social media integration. Talk about a 21st century problem... Should I do a Formspring account? It seems like the kind of thing I would do... Every time I do a project in the shop I find 20 things I would do differently were it my shop... This weekend we interviewed a Highland Park kid. Apparently I went to junior high with her mom at Northwood. I am old... No matter how interesting the parallels seem to be, Madison is no Cairo... These days I have to work real hard just to be simply behind rather than wildly behind... I wonder if we'll ever do Game Night again? Be a shame if we didn't... Being attacked by the snot monster today. I hope it doesn't win...
