PHOTOS Show George W. Bush Seriously Ill Physically
Very interesting. Lots of evidence, but I can't say if it's conclusive.
George W. Bush apparently is wearing a medical device for "persons at risk of cardiac arrest." It is a LifeVest wearable defibrillator. He started using it sometime after his January 2002 fainting spell, which was attributed to choking. Based on photos showing him wearing the device, one can conclude the fainting was due to atrial fibrillation (AF), which his father also had. His father's AF was caused by Graves' hyperthyroidism, which his mother also has. Bush likely has AF and less likely Graves', based on his family history and symptoms. The AF may have caused a stroke or TIA (mini-stroke), of which physicians watching the debates detected symptoms. Observers have noted psychological symptoms consistent with this and with Wernicke-Korsakoff disease.
Consequently, those of us who showed up will be getting free pizza today.
Yay! Even though that means you're at work.
DH stayed home until 11 today to help me with snotty boy.
When I say (thanks to Kara), "My name is TYRONE," he covers his ears, closes his eyes, and says, "Don't say that. Don't say THAT. Just be all Mommy. You're Mommy. I got to have a Mommy."
BWAH!
Say "Hi!" to Cat for me, too, Cindy.
Heh - 20 people called in today. The downpouring rain and the post-xmas vibe was enough to have people say "fuck it" en masse.
I am the only person here in my office. There is some snow out there. I probably wouldn't be here, except I had to get up n' atom for my GRE testing today.
There is no free pizza. Only Zool.
OK, no Zool, but M&Ms. Mmmmmmmmmmmm&mmmmmmms.....

Untrue. There is free pizza because I'm eating it right now.

Cashmere did you happen to see the lethally cute pic of the lethally cute niece, that DX posted in his LJ? I think it's time to expand Owen's harem. She's just gorgeous.

Oops, I meant no free pizza in my office. I am not rewarded for coming into work in inclement weather.
Sure I showed up 4 hours late, but hey.

I think you came into work so you wouldn't have to listen to your beloved husband coughing.

heh. more like, even though he needs to be taken care of, he still insists on taking care of me. I figure if I remove myself from the equation, he can get some rest, finally.

Oh, yes! The mittens killed me!! I won't have to worry about him finding a suitably gorgeous, intelligent woman out there when he grows up. Unless that's not his bag. Then he will have to find a suitably gorgeous, intelligent young man. We'll have to wait and see how that works out.
The mittens killed me!!
Heh. They're actually fuzzy socks being used as a quick and easy mitten replacement.
