the PI just called to verify that the letter I wrote about the senate debates was really written by me and that I hadn’t had it published anywhere else so they can publish it.

Finally

Sika | October 23, 2006

I FINALLY have all my Scotland and Ireland pictures up on flickr and also have my stories up there too. If you want to read the stories, look at the photos on detail view because some of the not so pretty pictures are there to illustrate the stories. The Ireland and Scotland sets have [...]

More fun in politics

Tuesday night there was a debate among the candidates for Cantwell’s spot in the U.S. Senate. Or wait, I mean among 3 of the 5 candidates.  That’s right, Aaron Dixon, the Green candidate, and the independent candidate Robin Adair were excluded. What was the reason? Oh, that they didn’t have $1.2 million in their campaign [...]

In unhappy news today

Happy Birthday to you!
You live in a zoo!
You look like a bartender
And you smell like one, too!
Hah! I crack myself up.

I had this whole response typed up on TWOP to a couple of threads this one and this one. when Couch Baron laid the smackdown (while I was writing it not specifically in response to me) and I had to delete most of it. So, I’m reposting the part I had to delete here, ’cause [...]

Friday the 13th

Sika | October 13, 2006

Carrie didn’t want to be my buddy at work today because it was Friday the 13th. Turns out, on Friday the 13th, I *don’t* send anyone to the ICU.
I wish everyday was Friday the 13th.
(For the record, out of the last 7 times I’ve been to the floor I was on today, I sent *at [...]

hmmm

Sika | October 5, 2006

All the energy I’ve been expending seems to have caught up with me, and after a very busy morning I came home to make lunch and mischief and I fell asleep on the couch. So I’m trying to convince myself that I definitely want to make it at least to the rally at the Federal [...]

flickr?

Sika | October 4, 2006

So, who uses what to host their photos? Is flickr the winner it seems to be? Is there any damn thing that allows you to do a batch upload?
These are important questions I need answered so y’all can see my photos.

Wish me luck

I am going to go see if I can get my doctor to sign two places missed in my doctor’s visit next month. My lab results came back while I was in the British Isles and I’ve finally typed up my personal statement about why the fact that I go to therapy doesn’t mean I’m [...]

It’s truly awful

Sika | October 1, 2006

So, before I left, I set up my VCR to record the two episodes of Grey’s Anatomy I was going to miss, the series premiere of Ugly Betty (I love America Ferrera), and the season premiere of ER.
Guess what my VCR failed to record?
That’s right, any of it.
What’s the world going to hell in a [...]

I believe it’s been said before:

If you’re not pissed off, you’re not paying attention.
From WaPo via Shakes Sis,  this new outrage:
“With little public attention or even notice, the House of Representatives has passed a bill that undermines enforcement of the First Amendment’s separation of church and state. The Public Expression of Religion Act – H.R. 2679 – provides that [...]

Hey people! Get out and make a nuisance of yourselves for a good cause!
