No potato pancakes yet. Travis and I completely slacked off for Thanksgiving. Maybe potato pancakes soon, though. We made some big pizza pocket things and chili today. Nom.
Got out the keggle this morning and did some post-Thanksgiving hobo dyeing. It figures that I would get in the mood to dye [...]
You know, I am stupid. I go through these phases where I don’t do something for a while, and then I get all whiny and lame about having to do that thing, and then after I finally do it, I’m all, “Oh yes! I remember now that I actually enjoyed doing this!”

Of the field, I thought Kerry, Dean, Edwards, and Clark all sounded good, and I would have welcomed any of those four as the Dem nominee. By the time the primaries rolled around in [...]
I’ve not really been posting lately. I blame it on this and this.
See you on November 5th. Think good thoughts, and if you haven’t already, VOTE!!!
