Today I have a  very good excuse. Congratulations to California for acknowledging that marriage should  apply to any kind of couple. The legislative branch has also come down hard in favor of a farm relief bill in defiance of his highness The Shrub (although not being a farmer, I can't say if it'll really be a good thing. I'll have to ask my MiL what she thinks. I'll at least take comfort in the defiance).  Also, my old favorite John Edwards has spoken up for Obama. Quite a day.
