Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

(Somone pleeeeease tell me 'Baron" is a perfectly reasonable name in whatever land Mrs. Trump du jour comes from!)

It's Barron. Old English name. (Actually, I think I've seen it as German, too.) Also the name of several members of the Hilton clan -- one of Conrad's sons, and one of Paris's brothers. (They seem to really recycle names. I think they've got a Conrad and a Barron in every generation.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That only makes me slightly better, but thanks for trying, Hil.

Well, I guess its only recently that Hilton has come to = Complete Tool

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I just found out that we've been given the day before Anzac Day as a day off work! Two four-day weekends in a row!

t makes plans to take the Wallybee away from all this

What is even happening?

Oh, I got a email from Bec. Her wedding date is the 22nd. I need to get moving on a wedding pressie, preferably from a US online source like Amazon or such like. Anyone have any ideas? (I like Hec's philosophy of buying rocking versions of mundane articles.)

This is too civilized.

Okay, really, it's lovely. You could give them a framed picture of you. No? Hmmm. I'll need to sleep on this one.

I like the way you think.

Hi Bitches! Today I was at work and I came as close as I've ever come to a needlestick. Someone used a needle for suturing and then left it attached to the dirty needle holder instead of dropping it into the sharps container where it belonged. (Whitefont: The suturing was done after a delivery to repair a tear, and the needle holder was covered with blood. So when I grabbed a handful of tools when cleaning up the room, I was millimeters away from stabbing myself in the finger. I was furious.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Jen, that is SCARY!

Fair enough. That's a serious breach of safety conditions.

Some giftie thoughts: A roomba. A painting (not by me, and not of me either). Ok, that's all my thoughts so far. Don't judge me!

Yeah. I was shaking with a combination of fear and anger for a good long while afterwards.

Thankfully, I've never seen anything like that happen before in the two years I've worked at my job.

billytea, where were you when I got married?? Those are good gifts.

Sorry it got to your house too. I've spent two nights quasi-sleeping in the rocking chair holding Mal so his drainage doesn't choke him.

Raq, I hope Mal gets better quickly. We've done that sleeping sitting up thing before and it's only marginally better than getting no sleep at all.

Owen feel asleep at 6:30 tonight. I'm hoping that being dosed with cold medicine will keep him uncongested so he can sleep tonight. It's awful to listen to him wheezing on the monitor. He's going to be sick over his birthday--which will suck.
