Up and watching the Rose Parade. Apparently Stephanie decided not to host this year, which is unfortunate, because instead there are four or five sets of hosts that I don't like as much. It's raining on the Rose Parade for the first time in 50 years, which should explain why I'm here at home on the sofa instead of out on the parade route as usual. I'll probably watch it again later, since I'll likely fall asleep during this run...

So much for that deal with G-d

Well as you know, the tournament of roses has a deal with G-d, that they don't host the parade on sunday if G-d doesn't let it rain. Hehe. I can walk to the parade as I lieterally live down the street from the route, but I wanna stay dry and healthy.

Sounds to me like it was 50 year contract. So, year 51, the term's up...

Actually, I was talking to this woman I was auditioning for today, who observed that the last time it rained was when Earl Warren was the grand marshall. Maybe there's just a curse with supremem court judges.

They mentioned that in the parade coverage. I think we can ascribe the rain to a lot of things...

I Cannot Hide What I Am

I must be sad when I have cause and smile
at no man's jests, eat when I have stomach and wait
for no man's leisure, sleep when I am drowsy and
tend on no man's business, laugh when I am merry and
claw no man in his humour...
I had rather be a canker in a hedge than a rose in
his grace, and it better fits my blood to be
disdained of all than to fashion a carriage to rob
love from any: in this, though I cannot be said to
be a flattering honest man, it must not be denied
but I am a plain-dealing villain. I am trusted with
a muzzle and enfranchised with a clog; therefore I
have decreed not to sing in my cage. If I had my
mouth, I would bite; if I had my liberty, I would do
my liking: in the meantime let me be that I am and
seek not to alter me.
