Egregious Meets MilleniaLab



All thanks to emptywheel for the kind invitation to dine with her last night. First chance to meet the esteemed Mr. emptywheel and the adorable MilleniaLab [or is it vice versa?] and see where she works.

Mighty fine meal with roast beef, onions, turnips cooked to perfection, salad, and homemade pumpkin pie with whipped cream. I might have sneaked a little whipped cream to the dog :)

With the Michigan primary this Tuesday it was a most interesting time to visit family and friends here and listen to their insights about what's going on here. Is it the highest unemployment in the nation? Michigan today, the rest of us tomorrow.

Go Blue!


En route to Michigan. Have a warm feeling in my heart towards the place, nearly went to school there both undergrad and public health.

Grew up with an OSU father who taught us to say "beat Michigan" in the same way that we reflexively learned to respond "beat Army" when anyone said Army. Hope it's ok to change my loyalty and root for Michigan now. Don't worry, still pro-Navy here.
