update to yesterday: Errant Blueberry dislodged about an hour into my ride yesterday. whew. that was a close one.

what inspires a fox to bark? and more importantly, what inspires a fox to bark RIGHT OUTSIDE MY BEDROOM WINDOW half an hour before my alarm rings, therefore insuring i won't get my REM back?

short snippet this morning on npr about the GOP arming to fight roe vs. wade. go ahead, fuckers. tear yer party in twain. cos i can't imagine repubs agreeing on whether to repeal the whole darn thing or just knock off a couple chips they find particularly troublesome (like partial birth abortions, 3rd trimester, etc.); but maybe that's just wishful thinking.
