Yesterday, shimmeringjemmy asked me to “throw a blanket in her direction.”
One line and a digression:
For those who haven’t had a baby, the baby blanket is akin to the hitchhiker’s towel or the sonic screwdriver. It is the closest thing that we as humans have to deus ex machina in the non-fictional world.
I tossed the blanket across the room with the verve of a down-field, hail-mary. A slender female arm shot up and snatched the towel mid course, reminding me momentarily of the tribulations my football team is going through. Ironically I thought to myself and voiced, “Sorry, that was a bit hard, perhaps a shovel pass would have been better.”
She looked at me and smiled, “No, it’d seem my reflexes have really improved.”
This was obvious to me; but for some asinine reason, I felt the need to demonstrate it.
I sat down next to her and said, “of course your reflexes have improved. Let me demonstrate.” I looked at her for a moment or two. She looked down at aiden_freeman, then looked back at me. I sat one moment longer and then started to waver and lean forward as if my balance had given out and I was going to slump to one side.
The well tooled female arm shout out to catch me from falling over. It moved with machine speed and precision. Unfortunately, the machine had not been calibrated for a body over 25″ As her left fist connected with my jaw in the vain hopes to lead the cradling arm to wrap itself around my non-infant back; the concussive force extended my theory of parental reflexes.
Short translation: I was laughing too hard through the pain and shimmeringjemmy‘s apologies.
Here endeth the science lesson.
A member of my friends’ list, aspasia93, recommended a site this morning:
Don’t Vote.org
The site’s premise is a test to show you that the average person is uninformed about local politics and that until you have a better understanding of the issues, you should not vote. In the site’s opinion: haphazard guessing does more damage to our electoral system than anything else. They support voting, but only AFTER you have thoroughly educated yourself.
Personally, I’m going to say this site is an absolute waste of your time. I disagree with the message they are giving, the means they are using, and most importantly the hypocrisy of the site.
I’ll give you an overview of how the site works, why I think what they are doing is pointless to their message, and then my impressions about what is actually going on. Here’s the skinny on why I’m saying don’t don’t vote
Having looked at both candidates and been utterly unpleased with the unclear statements, double talk and finger pointing…
(You see, the internet is a series of tubes)
I’m writing in myself for U.S. Representative. I invite anyone voting for U.S. Representative District 2 (For washington state) to write me in as well. (Andrei Freeman)
Personally I fully expect to capture at least 50% of the eligable voters in my household. Which means.. Well…. Um.. I guess it doesn’t mean anything.
I suppose I need a platform. Um. If elected I will be happy to stand in the House and call people on Bulls*&t. Other than that. I guarantee I don’t agree with anyone else on all their issues. But then again.. At least I’ll admit that.
Write in candidate via LJ. Because the alternatives kinda suck.
