feels like Friday already

Still a few (well, OK, many) things to do while waiting for [livejournal.com profile] onsenmark to call from the downtown DC Greyhound terminal. He'll be happy to hear that [livejournal.com profile] deathquaker will be popping down for part of Saturday to join us, which will be cool.

The day job was largely a waste of time except for the five checks I bashed out; spent most of it surfing the web and half-listening to Laura and Rush. Still some hope that the Congressional Democrats may have overreached themselves on the Porkulus bill and set themselves up for a Blue Dog revolt in the House or a GOP filibuster in the Senate, though with the Terrible Trio of Spector, Snowe and Collins using up oxygen on our side of the fence I don't have much faith in the latter.

Tape arrived today but no sign of the book I ordered from Borders yet. Up and at the cleaning/repacking thing.

Blue Dogs

Problem with blue dogs is that they are becoming and endangered species.

Well, in an ideal world they'd be Republicans, but as long as they continue to act like fiscal conservatives I'm moderately happy. I'd be even happier if they helped dump Pelosi and Hoyer, but I'm not going to hold my breath for that.
