"This site makes me happy," notes Lee, echoing my exact sentiments.

"The debate may have boosted Obama," reads this entry's title at the wicked cool polling mashup site. That's wonderfully evident in some of the graphics on the right-hand side. How awesome is it to watch, over the course of a week, New Hampshire and Florida turning blue? Very. Finally, holding your breath while someone else turns blue, is productive.

It wouldn't surprise me if, out of desperation, McCain suddenly tries to hang out with an ex-Weather Underground member hoping for an overly-insinuated-fleeting-association-with-a-New York Times-labeled-terrorist bump in the polls, completely in ignorance of the negative results of their negative tactics. Yup, yup! You betcha!

Pollster.com is fun too. You can customize lots of the chants for yoself.

11:42 I need to be better about falling asleep w/o the radio. It can't be a pacifier AND a stimulant, even if the volume is louder in the a.m.

15:21 Recording went well, lunch went well, homeward bound.

17:23 Looks like the bike is ready. What will I do with it when I get it? It's too tall for me to ride, and I feel guilty about selling it.

17:51 Michael is cool.

00:04 I'm still irritated at UI issues. If there's a nice single man out there in need of a hug, I need one, too, & I'm happy to share. NSA.

My friend, Nathan, has started to put up his photographs in his deviant account. Even though he an amateur, he has a natural eye for turning the ordinary into the sublime.

Here are a couple of his photographs;







If you like what you see and have a few minutes to kill, have a gander at the rest of his photographs here.

Thanks!

(p.s. The apple pic is my personal favorite. He made the fruit look saintly.)

I've seen others post this way, so I figured I'd say what I saw in the last ~1.5 miles home today.

3 Obama signs, 0 McCain signs, 1 local candidate sign, and 9 for sale signs.

I was thinking I should have paid attention all of the way home, but really I don't see residential areas until I'm off the highway so I probably didn't miss much.

The kid is still up north but his stuff came here the other day. I've been unpacking and sorting ever since. The problem with this is that my sister had a cat. I am very allergic to cats. So, my time has been littered with sneezing fits of the likes I haven't seen in a long time.

Earlier, I took some Bendryl and now my head feels all fuzzy. No driving or handling any heavy machinery for me any time soon.

Wow, this kid is a clothes horse. My sister was one as well. She had some the best taste I had ever met. And it's reflected on her kid. I have to find a way to keep it up.

Everyone is falling in love with Ethan, the nephew in question. I want to say that I find it odd but I feel saying so comes across as harsh. But that's not what I mean. The phrase, "I don't like kids but I like him," has been said more than once while I've taken Ethan around. The kid is enchanted. I swear. He has the power to melt even the coldest of hearts. I can only stand back and be amazed as people fall one after the other to his spell.

Though I will always admit that he is indeed cute. I mean, look at him. (He's the one in the middle. The other two are my cousin's children.) That's one cute kid. Hard to believe that he is a quarter Puerto Rican. He's an O'Brien through and through.
