I played D&D in high school.

Much ~ma to askye's mom.

Timelies. I'm the Fourth Doctor, whatever that means (well, it apparently means I'm bohemian, smart, and scatterbrained. What else is new?) I've not seen much of Dr. Who, either.

~ma for those who need it, especially tiggy's aunt and askye's mom.

Strange night last night. A random woman (in very ugly vinyl pants) accused me of attacking her solar plexus and diaphragm because - get this - I'm wearing black nail polish & I was wearing my black CAT boots last night. She started speaking to me in backward English and asking me if I listened to Rob Zombie or Marilyn Manson. Honey, you're the one who can actually speak backwards and you're also wearing all black (and way too much blush by the way). If I ever attack your solar plexus, you'll know by MY FIST in YOUR GUT. Go. Away.

Some people.

I stupidly went and read the health insurance article Emily mentioned, and, um, yeah. It's pretty enraging.

I bought that issue but so far have avoided reading the article, as last night I filled my daily rage quotient reading about Intelligent Design. [link]

AS: "But that's for boynerds! I'm a girlnerd!"

It shouldn't be so hard for a huge girlnerd like me to find a boynerd to call my own.

You'd think.

Hey, you guys went from Farscape to Doctor Who without telling me. No fairs. I loved the new Doctor Who.

Also, Plei, love the Squeak for Evil picture.

I read the US insurance article. I'd be enraged, except I read pretty much the same thing before and I am in rage burnout.

You'd think the industry folks who are getting screwed to the wall over insurance premiums for their employees would put some pressure on lawmakers. Might as well use the dumb ass legalized bribery that we call "political contributions" for good, for once.

I think we should blame the actuaries. Hee

I have plenty of rage to spread around to both the insurance industry, and askye's mother's asshat doctor.

Staying somewhat dry. Training session cancelled, kids dental appointments cancelled. I'm working until the kids get off school then I'll go home and finish house prep. DH says he's headed to the beach to body surf. It's just rain bands. Dry in between, then massive deluge.

I think it really is only a matter of time before the idea of National Health Care gets into the political arena. Lots of people are fed up with health care and every over developed country has a national system. I think a politician could do well with the message that people should be entitled to health care as a citizen instead of as an employee lucky enough to be employed by someone who can and will provide it.

I'm thinking of running for office and having this be my entire platform. The system is so fucked up.
