Thanks everyone. I am worried, but I'm not freaking out just because I know that we are doing the right thing.
I just looked some stuff up, and it's very uncommon -- even with an excessively high dose -- for children to suffer any toxic effects from Tylenol. Apparently they metabolize it in a different way than adults do, and that's why they're very unlikely to experience toxicity.
Yeah, that's what the Poison Control guy said.
Okay, my MiL is here, so I think we'll go to the ER too.
Oh man, Burrell. I'm hoping for the best for all of you -- including you having to wait and see. Eek.
Burrell! How scary! I hope that Franny and the little one are both good and that you hear that soonest.
Yikes, Burrell. Very scary, though I am sure it will all be fine. Please let us know when you hear more.
ACK! Burrell, I hope the babies are OK!
Someone just totalled a parked car right in front of my house. They missed my car, but my neighbor's car had its rear end completely smashed in.
What I hate most about snowy weather isn't the mucky roads. That gets cleared up fairly soon. However, parking lots remain ice rinks--unless they're just masses of ice ridges--and most of the parking lots have slopes in the driveways to the street. Those slopes always collect ice, which no one bothers to clear, so when you have to slow down to pull in or have to stop to wait for a break in traffic to leave, you're almost always stranded on a patch of ice.
Boy, I'm glad I've got studded tires.
Poor little Franny! Glad she took something relatively easy to deal with. Still, it's gotta be terribly nervous-making for you.
Poor Franny! She's probably pretty scared right now (or possibly bored -- ERs seem to be that way for me) so I hope they give her a clean bill of health soon. All sorts of soothing thoughts coming your way, Burrell, even tho' you say you are calm.
Attention getting stories in local news
PROVO, Utah (AP) -- The Utah Department of Transportation is preparing to resume using a cannon for avalanche control in Provo Canyon, and believes it can do so this time without shelling any neighborhoods.
Last March 23, an errant 105mm Howitzer round went over a hill and into the back yard of Lori and Scott Connors' Pleasant Grove home.
UDOT was very sorry to blow up those folks' garage.
Best of all kinds of ~ma for Burrell and family.

Ugh. This happens to me almost every winter morning. My driveway slopes a bit and ends right at a busy street. When the plows come, they push snow off the street and into my driveway. When I try to pull out onto the busy street in the morning, my tires are either spinning on old mushy snow or ice. Very much a pain.
