First - Hooray AIMS!
good health thoughts for Jilli.
Hooray pix - awesome news for your dad.
@Raq - LA? oh duh. So it's a stunt horse with an actor's guild card.
I'm going to take a flyer and then disappear for another 10 hours, but - and I say this with all the love in my heart and at risk of sounding like Obnoxia McFarty Pants - the CDC's job is not panic prevention. That's our job. And the job of the media-who-don't-thrive-by-hype. The CDC's job is disease knowledge and prevention. I wish they would be listened to more often. Sits with ND.
Well what other shape would they be? [link]

Those look EXTREMELY uncomfortable.
did I miss the bras? All I saw was glass tables.
And they are totally not seamless.

The ultimate word on swine flu.
Poll for you guys:
Last week I made plans with a few friends from work to go out for a couple beers after work on Friday (tomorrow) to celebrate finishing classes and getting through my paper, presentation, and exam.
I have not told anyone at work about the current situation and frankly, I have no desire to explain it anymore to anyone who doesn't already know.
Options:
Option #1: Go out for drinks, celebrate what I did actually accomplish, because that is totally worthy even though it doesn't feel like it now.
Option #2: Call out sick and stay home on my couch in my pjs eating ice cream and watching Newsradio and Arrested Development.
I don't wanna lie or dissemble while out with co-workers, but I don't know if I want to sit around feeling sorry for myself either and maybe it might be good to do some celebrating. I am just not in a very celebratory place right now.
Option #1 I'd say.
Option #2 will make you feel worse, I'm pretty sure.
I know. It totally will.
I am just sort of still in the wallowing stage. It's awful, but a day of super-wallow seems so appealing! Though not helpful, as my more evolved brain is totally pointing out.
It's fucking caveman v. astronaut up here in my brain.
