they both have olympic medals, except the mouse.

growing up, one of my favorite jokes, for reasons i can't altogether explain, was: what's the difference between santa claus and a mouse? they both have beards, except the mouse. anyway, here are pics of me and angela ruggiero from the photo shoot, that the photog took. (these are not the shots of me wearing the medals, which susie took then had destroyed. clearly.)

in other news, i'm not paying nearly enough attention to...other news. namely the alito confirmation. although part of me thinks i have not been keeping up because i subconsciously don't want to depress myself. is there really a shot of dicing this guy? anyway, fortunately (or not?), stanton has filled me in a bit on the proceedings: "the aclu just came out against his nomination - the only other nominations they have ever opposed were robert bork and rehnquist (in his bid for chief justice, coming on the heels of a case when he basically suggested that black people don't know how to vote anyway, so why bother extending them the franchise)." major props (big ups) to the likes of the aclu and ian bassin for doing real work opposing alito. yeah--i really should get up in the piece somehow. wait--does this count?



notice the giant ice cube we're sitting on?



you should have seen the size of the tray!



my ass was soaked! angela sat on a towel. who's the tough one now?



one day she'll be showing these photos to HER grandkids!



except prolly not.
