Plei, they tried to give me a prescription for a new prenatal vitamin with Olivia that wasn't covered on my insurance (and outrageously expensive) and when I asked what the difference was they said, Omega 3's had been added. Apparently, it boosts brain development in babies, but not so much that our insurance company wanted to pay for it. So I went back to my old prenates and just added an OTC supplement.
Strong like an Amazon.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can find rabbit in my grocery store cheaper (per pound) than almost all kinds of fish and shellfish.
Well, rabbits breed like rabbits and fish...don't.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh. This makes me want to rip my hair out. There's already talk of Jeb Bush running for president. I really hate that family.
I'm almost positive PCBs have been an issue, though they aren't a plastic--there I think you're thinking of flame-retardant PDBEs.
You're right. My bad. I mixed the two up. I get all confuzzled and tend to lump the whole lot into acronyms-my-husband-won't-let-into-the-house.

I mean, come on, what would be the value in that? Brain development, feh. If this country cared about brain development...well, see Burrell's post above.

I'm pretty sure they weren't in my generic prescription ones.

I have heard that you can judge a portion of meat as being approximately the size of your palm, but I don't know how accurate that is. What I always find fascinating are the articles that compare American sized restaurant portions with European restaurant portions.

Actors, sara.
Well, I knew that much. Just that I haven't been watching, so I don't know who they play.

They're actually both blasts from the past -- you remember Anna, the blonde? And Theresa, Ryan's possible baby's mama? Both back.

Le Bloke and I were just discussing this the other day. He was telling me that abreakfast deal is a large coffee and two donuts. TWO! Why would one person ever need two donuts for one meal? It's madness!

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Oh, God, me too. Well, except for the husband part.
