So I sent a call out for a serious political discussion in Calling Out and Vernaltide 3: I Know Why Kerry Lost. I’ve gotten some good responses. Check out the comments in response to those two posts, as well as The Disappeared and We Value Life Above All Else on Gemma’s Blog.

COMMENTS:
– Yesterday I finally had the opportunity to use Armour Square as a litmust test for an age old question: How long does it take to photograph a relatively small Chicago neighborhood, if one is trying to photograph everything interesting?

Oh!

If you’re in a public bathroom, and for whatever reason you get pee all over the seat, please do us all a favor and wipe it up.

– Because Easter is a new beginning for me, and April is the month of Spring Cleaning, their coincision has given me ample reason to accomplish a lot. Which is fortuitous; there’s a lot to accomplish this year.
– The Wedding and School are, of course, the first priorities.

NOTE: This is a revision of a post I wrote yesterday. It was supposed to be published over the last, but was not. I will publish it as a separate post to retain the integrity of earlier comments.

A staff editorial: Partner Benefits.

I’m on the verge of calling out several of you. We have the seeds of an electric conversation floating about, but they’ve yet to ferment.

I’ve been in a political dolor lately, which is absurd considering the chaos going on around you.

COMMENTS:
– And yesterday rounded out the rest of a lovely weekend. After I finished the rest of the Oneidine 5 post, Jessica and I spoke with both of our families. We walked to the the Hyde Park Coop, and bought food for dinner.
