I'm sad for Keith Olbermann, who was so much attacked on Twitter that he's giving it up, at least for now. I've had my feelings hurt on "social networking media" (Facebook), so I get it.

Went to a first-rate party today. Inside was a mite steamy, in the tropical sense, and outside the mosquitoes were biting, but the guest list was aces.

Even at the party, I spent most of the day untangling the yarn I frogged out yesterday. It hadn't occurred to me how big a mistake it would be, to let the yarn I frogged remain in a pull-from-the-outside ball, rather than rewind it into a center-pull ball. What a mess.
