Hey, guess what today is? No, you'll never guess. It's the braintwin's birthday! Happy Birthday,![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
lireavue! You may have the brain ALL DAY today. Plus chocolates, because what's a brain without chocolate?
Apparently it's the 40th anniversary of the Free to Be You And Me album this week/month/something, which both makes me feel old, not that I was born when it came out but I grew up with it, and makes me feel curious. That album was one of the defining pieces of my childhood, the lessons it taught were lessons I was encouraged to take to heart and use in my life. A person should wear what he wants to, and not just what other folk say / A person should do what she likes to, a person's a person that way And so on and so forth. I think a lot of people in my generation and a bit before were, and I wonder how that's affected at least this country. I don't know how widespread it was in other countries. I don't really have any insight into the whole thing, but here's a good article.
Argh. I have to say, Republican or Democrat or Independent, I still don't see how anyone can think Mitt Romney is a trustworthy, credible candidate. He's changed position so many times I'm surprised he knows which way is up, and his idea of foreign policy is just scary for someone running for an office where he'll have to represent us to the world. And. Well, lots of ands. Maybe next election cycle the Republicans will come up with a decent candidate. But not this time.
Things, stuff, it's getting chilly and I'm getting sniffly. Dislike. The Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair is going on this weekend, which means I get to spend Sunday helping pack up from that and probably the next few days helping pack up for that. Fortunately since it's pretty much just on the other side of town (and it's a small town) we don't have to pack everything for a long journey, it's pretty much toss stuff into a box, make sure it won't rattle around too much, heave it into a van. On the other hand, that's going to make the store busy. I am keeping my free Saturday goddammit. I'll need it after this Friday's programmes.
Feeling slightly more comfortable with my Russian today. Let's hope that lasts. Need to get back onto Memrise, though, which I guess will happen after getting some stuff out, oi. Too much to do. Not enough brain cells to coordinate it with.
