I started watching the SotU address, but just couldn’t stomach it. Like a good horror movie, I think it’s best to watch our fearless leader speechify in the company of others, so I’m going to do so Friday. I’ve already had enough bad and bizarre dreams lately. There’s no reason to deliberately ask for trouble.
About those postcards Dawn mentioned in comments. I need to pick up some ink at Wal-mark**. I hate shopping there, but sometimes it’s necessary. Hopefully, they’ll have what I need. One word of caution (well, two, actually). First, there is a huge difference between how images look in print and on screen. The luminosity won’t be the same in the printed versions, so I’ll have to do some test printing to see if it’s even worth pursuing. They may end up looking like total crap. Second, I suck at getting things mailed out, so I won’t guarantee to get anything in the mail in a timely fashion. I’m just sayin’…
So, Dawn (or anyone else–here or abroad, as I don’t mind mailing overseas–who would like a postcard depicting rural Indiana), if I can make decent prints, which images are you interested in? I also might also be persuaded to do some postcards of artwork (same caveats apply).
Oh, and Denise, if you’re out there… That silly voice you do? The little voice in my head has adopted it, which is equally entertaining and disconcerting. Yesterday, in a staff meeting, it kept talking to me, and it was all I could do not to laugh out loud. Make it stoooooop!!!

My apologies if this has given anyone big hair and skinny tie flash backs. Just be thankful I wasn’t a Wham! fan, or you might really be sorry.
** The local patois is truly a marvelous thing. I think, culturally and dialectically, southern Indiana is not entirely unlike Appalachia. That sounds like a stretch, until you consider how close we are geographically to northern Kentucky.
