Skipping yet again, because according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Laura's birthday.

Happy birthday, Laura! With lots of wishes for a graet day and a wonderful year!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Laura!

On the contraception front, do doctors at Catholic hospitals prescribe birth control? I realize I could probably google this.

Google says yes, most do: [link]

[edit: Oh wait, that article answers a slightly different question, which is do Catholic institutions already cover bc in their insurance plans. I'm guessing the answer is the same, though.]

According to the national survey of 1,536 U.S. physicians, 93 percent of all doctors -- and 87.5 percent of 327 self-described Catholic physicians -- said they would "prescribe birth control to any adult patients that request them and for whom they are medically appropriate."

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Happy birthday, Laura!!

It's interesting: this article [link] really focuses on abortion and sterilization, but seriously, what about the Pill?

In other randomness, do nuns who have taken a vow of poverty and live within the convent and teach at parochial schools get paid?

Laura shares a birthday with the beautiful and talented Dr. J. Two beautiful and talented birthday havers. Happy Day.

I just laugh at the stuff people choose to give to an admin to do sometimes. Today it is a page torn from a magazine with a website circled. Can I go to the website and download a pdf and then email it to this guy? Well sure, but that could have been done on your own computer in the time it took you to write the note. SRSLY. people.

No pregnant men in my dream lask night, nor ziploc opening wombs nor externally attaching fetuses. Yay for non-disturbing dream night.
