Someday the amazement will wear off...

... but I hope it's not for a long time.

Pres. Obama's remarks following meeting with VP Biden & Geithner yesterday.  You probably have heard them excerpted on the news.  But you can also get them, in full, in your RSS reader from the White House Blog.

Every time I think about this new tone from our Federal government, I channel Quincy from the Little Einsteins - "I cannot beLIEVE it!"

Spatial Reasoning FTW!

First off, let me say that I find sewing SO grounding.  It's the polar opposite of academic work - the direction you need to take is fairly straightforward (or maybe there are two or three options to weight the merits of, but it's not all nebulous and squishy), and the results are immediately visible.  Which is why when I was feeling weirdly anxious about "what comes next" in my "real" work for the day, I took a quick sewing break.
