The Whole of the Moon

Ralph Nader's running for President.  Again.  I wonder if he ever got the thank-you card from Dubya for 2004.

Ran a Stargate SG-1 session last night.  I kinda phoned things in, but it wasn't as bad as it could have been.  Maybe Hell on Earth will go better next weekend.

Waiting now for a plumber to arrive.  Got some backflow issues with the shower;  I'm hoping he arrives in enough time that I don't have to miss Trinity this afternoon.

You caught my knee-jerk reaction, and thanks for doing that.

Yes. Dear God, yes, that couple really needs to do a better job at being parents. Like, maybe getting a sitter, or trading off stay-home-and-watch-the-kids duty.

Perhaps even sucking it up and hosting the game at their place, so the kids can play with their own toys in their own rooms, and get put to bed at a decent hour. I'd say a good half to two-thirds of their agitation was just from being bored and tired.

Now you're getting into the realm of people taking responsibility, and that's just crazy talk.

I feel for the kids, though. Being dragged off to a room full of strangers, given no way to reasonably entertain themselves, and having to deal with a yelling mother ... yeah. That can't be any fun at all.

And on top of that, being saddled with the name "Rookwin."

Yeah, that's the kind of thing that gets the house burned down with the parents still in it.
