zaterdag 29 september 2012 Today is a special day. Stephanie Miller brings her Sexy, Liberal Show to the Paramount. Welcome to Seattle! The cats in Cat City say "meow."
Sad to say... The Ride Free Area - the RFA - is no more. Marchers hit the streets Friday to protest that decision. Enjoy this PSA. Something on Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares wakes me up. Then the phone rings.  Oh, well.  Time for some Saturday morning fun.  Samurai Rangers and Lab Rats - Crush, Chop & Burn. The cats are rather mellow this morning. No hissing or cat fights during the night. Nice. A Jimmy Dean Croissant Sandwich for breakfast. I feel nostalgic for British pop like Level 42. All the dreams that we were building. We never fulfilled them. Could be better, should be better... For Lessons In Love! Back to BBC America for the Doctor Who 6-hour marathon. Rory and Doctor gets cozy... again? This is a time loop. It's Amy's Choice.
Oh, boy. I'm have been absorbed into the Doctor Whoniverse. Thank you, BBC America. The Girl Who Waited seems like Rory's Choice. Finally... the last episode that features Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) and Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill) - The Angels Take Manhattan.
Spaghetti and meatballs for dinner. Watch movie - The Avengers.

woensdag 26 september 2012 Up before alarm. Spaghetti carbonara for breakfast. Turn on Stephanie Miller. It's Humpdays With Hal. Hal Sparks has some awesome breaking news - Gilligan and the Stench.
Paul Ryan has gone rogue. He is unleashed, unchained, off the hook. Watch out, Ohio - Lima, Dayton, Columbus. I collect some Buckeyes on my walk to work. Just thinking about Ohio.
I am with the 6 Sea Otters to give Patty and Charmaine some planning time. Channel join us. We keep the kids busy.
Some of them like the felt board with the animals and shapes. But the bubble gun is very fun for them.
More bubbles! More bubbles! More bubbles!
We take the kids outside. Lots of fun on the slide, in the sandbox and more bubbles. We settle down for lunch. A lot of them are too tired to eat. I guess that we had too much fun today. They all fall asleep before 1:00. Night, night. I'm tired, too. Visit the Seahorses. I'm surprised that Andy is awake, but he hugs his baby doll and doses off. Another successful nap time. Street car to d'town. Short walk around First Hill. Check WKYC about Obama's visit to Kent State. I'm excited for my nephew... who waited hours - in the rain - to get tickets.

They're all asleep. Quietness. My last hour is with the Sea Otters. One pops up. He goes outside with me, and we mingle with the Starfish. Walk up to Denny listening to All Things Considered. WOW! Seattle makes the national news. Replacement refs blew it big time last night, most observers agree, when they gave Seattle a touchdown that sent Green Bay to defeat.

Yep. That's the talk of the town today. "Did you see the game?" "Yeah! Best game ever!" "Wasn't that crazy?" #8 bus up to B'way. Nice walk around Capitol Hill in the sunshine. Through Freeway Park to my place. Watch some KOMO News... But I want to watch President Obama's speech at the United Nations. Obama opened his remarks today with a tribute to U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, who was killed, along with three other Americans, in the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, saying he "embodied the best of America.""True democracy – real freedom – is hard work," he said.

Kathy covers for Charmaine. The 6 Sea Otters play with puzzles and musical instruments. After having so many sunny-warm mornings, it's seems odd to put on jackets. The group has the playground for themselves. We pretend to have a picnic with plates full of wood chips. We use our buckets as drums. "Bang, bang, bang!" They made it clear that they are thirsty. "Water. Yes." Charles says it in French - De l'eau. I take a couple inside to set up lunches. The rest come in, and it's chow time. Naps are a struggle again. Over to Seahorses. They're napping well. The Sea Otters wake up a little early. They play with new felt boards. Walk up Mercer to Queen Anne. Nice flowers in front of 222 Mercer Street.

It was 7 years ago, when someone gently suggested in An Open Letter To The Red States... We're taking the Blue States with us. And we got the gooooood wine.
