Howard doesn't need to click his heels to be first.
I find myself up hours earlier than usual today. With Penny's new Saturday hours she leaves the house before 6:30 to be double-certain of getting there by 8. Her alarm (snooze-snooze-snooze) always wakes me, but today I eventually found myself wide awake rather than falling back to sleep. I'm certain to want a nap later, but I'm up, awake, and breakfasted at the moment.
On the way to work this morning I saw quite a few truckloads of processor tomatoes on the road. The onion harvest seems to be finished, and the vineyards are being prepared for harvest. I also saw a large flock of ibis in the usual place--the evidently organic dairy, where the pasture has an often marshy area.
Nope. Have in the past, it's made no difference. They do this to me every so often. Have, since the beginning. It's gotten worse since timeline and my new computer.
I will be watching the Senate election in Georgia with great interest.

P.S.: I continue to wonder who will run for the Democratic presidential nomination... it is a long time until 2016. I think HRC and Joe Biden are both past their "use by" dates. Too bad Jennifer Granholm doesn't qualify.
Biden certainly is. Clinton --- maybe, maybe not. But I think the nominee will be someone not currently prominent on the national scene. Or at least newly prominent, like Elizabeth Warren.

Great Firsties!!
DeleteI wish I could get up early AND have a nap every day. My kitties wish it too. ;-)
Thanks, listener.

One can hope. . . . But actually I'm pretty persuaded by their stats.
DeleteThis is Ruy Teixeira's outfit. Pretty honest take on statistics.

Unlike the rePublicans of the last election, he always delivered the news straight, even if he didn't like it. . . .
