Obama Redux


It rained again today, and The Misers are a little bit discombobulated because they have been going in different directions. I've been working from home, and Sparky and Bee have been hanging out together, mostly inside because of the weather.  They did run some errands, and went to the park in between the rain. Sparky told me of a happy incident that happened when he and Bee were getting a coffee, and going to the grocery store. (For Sparky, not Bee - she's not into caffeine yet, but the few times she had sugar - look out!) Anyway, she was sitting quietly in the cart as they waited in line. People always look at her when she is out and about, she is that cute. The gentleman in front of them was smiling at Bee when she suddenly pointed to the latest Vanity Fair and said "Obama" (she can say the "b" now). The guy was stunned. "Did she just point to the president and say 'Obama'?" he asked Sparky. "Yep," Sparky replied, "She is very civic minded." I guess he was surprised because she is so little. He said, "Well I'm going to be working for her or voting for her in the future then!" Sparky observed that he's already working for Bee... In any case, I'm hoping that the Republicans get their act together and vote the right way for a change. Bush is no more and they seem to be forgetting that. No more Bush! That's enough to brighten any Misers rainy day and turn it into a holiday.
