BTW, Wisconsin was gorgeous and Madison was totally awesome. I was there when the DOMA ruling came down - was happy to see a girl wearing a "No H8" shirt the next day. I fell a little bit in love with Wisconsin while I was there.
Oh, and I bought a hamsa hand pendant from a local street vendor - been wearing it ever since. I think it's working, since I've had no problem with the evil eye ever since. of course, I don't think I was having a problem with the evil eye before either, but it sort of stares out at people and I think it's saying, "I effing DARE you to screw with her!"
