You are not going to become the person who carries the dog around in a purse, are you?

This thing? She's going to be a horse, couldn't carry her in a duffle bag....

I mean, if she had really given UP I would have carried her home but then made arrangements for the next trip. But she just needed an occasional break.

She's a Good Girl. Trying hard. nod

She really is.

She started using the puppy pads and this morning when I got home she needed to go out and waited TILL she was out to go. So that was good!

I mean... what, Sat we'll have had her a week?

That's a fast learner.. must be the lab in her 🙂

And she and Valencia are coming to an understanding. Play time is fine, and fun, but not to be confused with sacred nap time. Don't mess with cat during nap time.

A very Good Girl.

Labs are the goodest

Cats need their sleep. Being awesome is hard work? 🙂

So true.

Totally.

Okay. Registered for fall class, and books are ordered. 🙂

Braver than I am!

Took me some serious agonizing before I spoke to my adviser...and that conversation was illuminating. Seems I might have already done the work I need to do for the dreaded "pilot study" or at least a good deal of it.

And it looks like I got the last seat for the class.

WOOT

Sweet!

Of course, this is the professor I had for my rhetoric class, the one who put me to sleep on a weekly basis...but it's subject matter that I think will be more interesting this time. We'll see.

I could have done an independent study, but I think moving from an unstructured summer to an unstructured study would not yield good results.

Well. Crap. I'm crashing.

Sleep. smooch

aw

When is your wakeup? Do you work tonight?

Yes. *grumpy* I have to be up NLT 8.

Ok, yeah. 2-3hrs. BBL. Stick a pin in it.... *Zzzz*

Awww....pets a Shady She's so cute when she drools.

later

*sleepy grumble*

She's so grumbly, I think she's tired

Even more adorable. Like a cross between Eeyore and Mr. Snuffleupagus.

sigh

rahne, could you double check me?

if looking at politics is too much emotional labor, that's ok too

It wouldn't let me in.

Is it an SCA statement?

dem poors, they can afford an ID because they spend money on booze & cigs!

Oh bs.

I pointed out that even at 11 bucks for a state ID, poll taxes are illegal

Yup.

and that no, it's not "easy" for everyone to get to a DMV - case in point, alabama CLOSING 8 counties DMVs after passing a voter ID law

I am okay with ID, but the state should provide it to anyone who wants to register to vote. It doesn't have to let you drive etc

And it's not always about affording. A lot of people don't have a legal address, or resist revealing their legal address to protect somebody else.

Yup. It needs to be free and accessible.

well, you need some kind of address to vote in the right district?
