Evan Bayh

I was at the same event as our junior Senator from Indiana, Evan Bayh. He's very pleasant (what pol isn't nice at a public event?) and we chatted awhile. He's a Blue elected from a Red State. He wasn't feeling well, but I told him I was a voter and a fan and that we should

What a world

Yesterday around noon it literally rained buckets and buckets. It was so dark it looked like 12 midnight instead of 12 noon.

London’s Heathrow (and Gatwick too, I assume) looks like a zoo. “YAY” to the Brits who foiled that plan. My sister has been over there for a week now on business—she’ll stay another week. She was there last year when those bombs went off in the buses, and no one could contact her for a few days. But then we all got to thinking, “No way in hell would Lynn ride public transportation, so we assumed she was safe.” And she was. Well, this go ‘round she emailed us immediately to let us know the story.

I read online yesterday that now we can’t take any liquids on flight, including toothpaste, mouthwash, water, etc. And if mothers take baby formula they’ll have to take a drink of it first in front of airport security before they’ll allow it on board. What a world.

Hump Day

It’s too damned early.

LP starts school a week from today.

My cosmos are finlly blooming. I have pure white ones and deep red ones. There's supposed to be pink and some other variations in the mix. We'll see.


I had a dream last night and I smelled onions. Do you ever smell while you’re sleeping? Ha

BB All Stars Update:
Good News: Janelle got Power of Veto. I thought it was funny.
Bad News The Iraqi Peach is on the block. Bye Kaysar.
I have to agree with Will . . . Howie is weird.
One day in solitary wouldn’t be so bad. Quit crying, Danielle.

Thoughts on Nancy Grace: Can anyone whose nostrils flare so much really be that indignant about injustice?

LP and I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Man’s Chest yesterday. I hated it. Oh, Johnny Depp was good. But it was too dark, too watery, and too dirty. The “people” on The Flying Dutchman were absolutely gross. I hated Davy Jones aka Octopussy. And everyone had bad teeth except for Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly. Blech. I liked the first one much more.

My black eyed Susans seem to love the heat.


 

This is the last of my gladiolas.
