I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Of all things to come back, I would not have predicted side ponytails!
I'd have listed that before the glittery skinny headband. Crazycakes in any case.
Day three of the ick has started with minimal head congestion, but with an added invisible ice pick to the temple. And utter exhaustion. Just got dinner going in the slow cooker and I'm done for the day.
I'm so behind on The Good Wife.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
well ... last Friday I went to an educational session about diabetes - my doctor encouraged it and, since it was two hours in the morning, I took a personal day off to attend. Schlepped through a major rain storm, got soaked, and got there only five minutes late (I was the first patient to make it). Sat through a presentation which didn't really tell me anything new.
What pisses me off is that a dietician/nutritionist (not sure which she was, but she has advanced degrees in something) did a presentation and handed out "personalized" sample menus. My problem with the menu for me is (1) it almost doubles my current caloric intake and (2) suggests grapefruit for breakfast (which conflicts with at least one of my medications). So ... unless counteracting most of the effects of Lipitor and taking me from obese to morbidly obese are good things, I'm going to ignore her menu plan.
All in all, it was a waste of a day off.

Oh, that's irritating, Toddson. I hope you tell your doc it was shite, so s/he doesn't make the same rec to others.

Because books.
Verified case of pertussis at Sara's school. How does that even happen when they're all supposed to be vaccinated just to be there?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Pertussis vaccine only lasts about 10 years - what grade is Sara in? (Booster shots are not usually on the mandated list, and almost no adults are up to date.)

Yeah, it said the booster is given after age eleven, but they're all supposed to have five shots before entering school. Who knows? Sara's in third grade, so she should covered (i.e. she's eight).

Sometimes the vaccines don't work for someone, or don't get to a therapeutic level. Which is why we count on herd immunity, and part of why the whole anti-vax thing is so damn infuriating.

Yes! yes you do. (there wasn't a new one last week, I think, if that helps) Me, I need to catch up on Downton Abbey
