Holy K1P2, Batman, the election is O-V-E-R
but the Election Coverage continues…

Imagine, on screen, if you will, our intrepid character, Girl Photog, (played with exquisite grace by redhead Marg Helgenberger or honorary redhead, Molly Price), jumping out of the shower, putting on brand new undies (so lucky), shaking her wet hair like a dripping canine, and running for her jeans.

She lands in front of the mirror, grabs a comb, and rakes. Two brush swipes of mascara and a dab of concealer later, and her low-maintenence toilette is complete! OFF to the post-races…

WHAT the…

OMG, those are her eyeballs hanging from her chin! Her bags have moved so far south, her eyebrows have become a beard! That is her hair, not a wighat, still dripping on her collar, and as she pulls on her coat, she notices every d*** nail on both hands is broken!

NO MATTER!

There’s work to be done and even though the election is *over* it’s not really over for our Girl Howdy! All she needs to get the video rolling is a quick touchup with some lip gloss and a spray of Chanel COCO and SHE’s OFF!

And apparently, I’m off my rocker but being crazy has never prevented ANYONE from Knitting!

I’m making swell progress on my Aran – it has now become my busmate//taxi/standby project and people, for once in my life, NOBODY thinks it’s a scarf!

The Validation! The Thrill of thrilling the public with something they understand! Nobody even hints that it’s CROCHET! WOOT!

It’s the little things, at this point, that are going to have to bring us back around…
