Re: Bread

I didn’t have enough flour to make bread the other night. I started this version of the NYTimes’ “no-knead bread” yesterday. The dough has to sit overnight. There were a lot of things that did not go right in the process of making this bread. For example: I ruined a perfectly good cotton towel, The bread is not in a taut “ball shape” and some of the dough stuck to the sides of the bowl. I am holding out hope that all of these things will only cause cosmetic problems. I find out in ten minutes.

Waiting for bread to bake

In 1993, Michigan went through a redistricting. John Conyers held Michigan’s 1st, which included part of the Detroit metro area from 1965 to 1993. After 1993, Detroit was cut out of the 1st and the seat went to Bart Stupak.

And that’s how one of the most liberal democratic seats becomes one of the most conservative democratic seats. Sadly, it doesn’t tell me whether or not Stupak would lose a primary, as he’s the only one to ever hold it. The 1st is rural, lower middle class, and white.

Secrets

Tonight, I told Amanda my deepest darkest secret. It went much better than I thought it might. Sometimes everything does not go horribly wrong.

I have to rethink my employment strategy entirely. The job pool of experienced administrative assistants is way too crowded for me to get the jobs in that field that I want. I was hoping that temping would provide me with a jumping off point. I was dreaming of a steady non-profit office job. After 20 months, somethings not working.

Time’s up, what am I going to do?

SORRY ABOUT THE ABORTIONS

POOR AND MIDDLE CLASS LADIES

218!

Nine Minutes

Those ten Democrats better not wait until the last minute to vote.
