I repeat, Joe Biden is better than that --->
I know we haven't blogged in a while, but we were busy voting in Cuyahoga County, which I'm pretty sure makes us the most important people in the country. Sadly, that also makes us residents of Cuyahoga County.
Since last we blogged, we've been busy with all kinds of autumn activities. We went apple picking with our neighbors, carved pumpkins, and got dressed up for Halloween. This year we went as Effie Trinket and Seneca Crane from the Hunger Games.

The costumes were pretty well-received, though they did make us the silliest looking people to have passed through Ohio this Autumn.

| ...well, almost |
I know, I know, that's probably enough cheap shots about this year's, shall we say, losers. It's just that in our house we feel very strongly about certain rights. For instance, how could we support an administration that wouldn't support this precious and super gay union:

| Pretty sure Tolliver is the wife |
And of course we had to protect Pig, Pog, and Pi's right to female reproductive surgeries.

| Because who wants another one of these around?!?! |
Let's see other than that, we've been very busy with school and internships. Nicholas is flying through his second year of dental school and has progressed way past the stage when he is only allowed to create wax casts of teeth. In October, for instance, Nicholas performed my annual prophy cleaning.

And he only had slightly less facial hair than the last person to clean my teeth--I wonder how Mrs. Weston is these days--He was so kind, so gentle, so reminiscent of someone that I just can't seem to put my finger on it...

| Oh, yeah |
Meanwhile, I've been spending a lot of this semester working with adolescents who have diagnoses of substance dependence. It's just the way they show it in the movies.
Of course, I'm practicing in Lake County, Ohio, so instead of Sandra Bullock, Angelina Jolie, and Leonardo DiCaprio it's much more like this
Well, that's it. We hope that you're enjoying the splendor of autumn because I know we are. We have loved taking in the beautiful scenery around Cleveland: the crisp air, the changing leaves, the local wildlife preparing for the cold winter months.
