vw, turn off the tv or turn on something completely mindless.
It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Have an appointment with the NP this afternoon. So, at least I'm trying to do something.

Our wings are not tired.
She likes her regular doctor. Idiot doctor was another doctor covering in the office since her regular was off. She intends to complain. I hope she doesn't wimp out because idiot doctor scared the crap out of her. If he didn't think she was having a stroke he should have said something else, if he did think she was he shouldn't have sent her off to drive herself to the hospital. Still really annoyed this morning. He literally said to her that it looked to him like her face was droopy on one side and that she might be having TIAs. She should go to the ER. Of course she believed he was right because the vertigo was making her feel so bad. Grrrr. She'll be ok though.
vw, are they talking about the one you are taking now, or the one they took you off of?
So, what do people think about Katie Couric taking over the network news desk? I don't watch the network news anymore, but it strikes me as absurd. This must be a nightmare to Walter Cronkite, my favorite anchor ever.

One I take now. I watched. It wasn't as bad as I thought. It actually looks like I'm probably too old to see the effects. Kind of a weird feeling, actually.

I really like Katie, so I think it's kind of cool. But, well, we'll see.

I don't dislike Katie; I just think she's not anchor material. Too fluffy. There are many excellent women news reporters and anchors that I think would do a better job. I hope she proves me wrong.

I think what she does right now is fluffy. In fact I think that it is absurd how fluffy the Today show has become, but I think she has the potential to do more serious news.

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how she comes off when she's not being written to be all fluffy and perky.

Katie Curic usually makes my teeth ache.
We are going to have a fire drill today. It is supposed to be a secret. But I can tell y'all, right?

Ooooo! I know what I should do today. I should fill out my FAFSA online. That should make me feel better...like I'm moving towards something again.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'd rather see the excellent reporters out reporting than sitting at the desk -- anchor is essentially a presenter position, and not a go get the goods one, and she's certainly good as a presenter. And I'll second those who think Katie is sharper than her current material.
(The fact that all TV news is fluff anymore is a rant I'll save for another time, since it's nothing to do with KC)
