100% is the correct answer!

Fortunately, I'm wearing purple and brown. Not a clothing disaster.

does anyone else feel really disconnected right now?

Yes. Goodness, yes. For me, it's a change of work. New school, new kids, new coworkers. And, this school does not have staff meetings which on the one hand, yay! On the other, it's hard to get to know people. And, I used to co-teach a class, so I had that comraderie which is now gone. Also, I think the 45 mile (each way) commute is a big factor.

What color of clothing are you wearing? If you are wearing white or some other very light color, then the chances increase greatly.

I subscribe to these same laws of physics.

tomato particles are attracted to fabric molecules. Esp white fabric.

If you are wearing white or some other very light color, then the chances increase greatly.

Both of these statements are completely accurate.

Didn't you just recently have a similarly shitty customer service experience at a car dealership?

No, that was you.

(Sorry)

Ha, I know, it WAS me, but it was also Tep! Or someone who went to a dealership and was very rudely told she was in the wrong place and was not believed when she told them that the website, then, had the wrong address.

I discovered I have a pair of white pants (I went into a fugue of clothes buying a couple springs ago) and I'm terrified to wear them because lunch will kill them. Also white pants=CSI:Miami to me, but I know it's not so bad on women.

Big all hands meeting went fine. Office is a lot quieter now, but I don't think people are as worried as they were two hours ago. I still haven't heard how it affects my particular project, but I think it is more likely to affect my chances of getting hired afterwards than interrupting the project itself--I just can't predict how.

Turnout high in Maine

Maine Secretary of State Matt Dunlap told me just now that turnout there is far exceeding his projections -- news that would be good news for backers of same-sex marriage.

"We're seeing heavy and very steady turnout," he said, attributing the surprise to the contested vote on a "people's veto" of a same-sex marriage law driving Mainers to the polls.

The city of Bangor -- Maine's third largest, and likely to tilt against repeal -- is projecting turnout over 50%, he said, and local analysts have said that higher turnout would likely favor the marriage law.

"I think we could be over 50%" for the state," Dunlap said. "We originally projected 35%."

Sorry for the syzygy of difficulties, Theo.

I'm wearing a light peach shirt and eating tortellini with a red sauce. So far, so go, but I'm not making any bets on the shirt remaining clean.
