I "heart" Blogojevich

I've never been a big fan of our Governor (although I do love open road tolling) but today I LOVE him.
My superintendent called to tell me that yesterday our lawyer signed a bill stating that adoption maternity leave is to be considered the same as biological maternity.
I'm getting PAID!!!!!!

edited: I checked on this bill today. It was signed August 14! My sup told me it was signed yesterday.
