Breaking news: FDA approves vaccine to protect against virus that causes cervical cancer

Um. Yay.

(I think this was the vaccine that some on the religious right didn't want made available, as it would "send the wrong message"....)

She is OBSESSED with boys Emmett's age. There's a brother of her classmate that always comes in to help drop his sister off and when he walks in the classroom, she stops what ever she's doing and stands there, with her fingers in her mouth, stares at him, and then smiles around her fingers. I watched her do it, coy little minx.

trouble, I tell ya. As if we didn't already know that, though.

yes, it vaccinates against HPV, one of the most common STDs (though you can get it without sexual contact). Opponents argued that it would promote promiscuity if girls knew that they wouldn't get HPV.

Hi, Nilly. Yep, got some of my Jilli Wannabe stuff out of storage to see my tribe and such. After wandering through the desert and everything. Wait, some of that is a little familiar, huh? Yes, it's rare for me too to see a photo of me where I'm not
-blinking
-red-eyed
-trying to remember if it's the north or south exit I'll get picked up from, and/or tracking the time.
Most of those photos just show me enjoying...whatever it is.

Oh, Erika, my few forays into Bitches have left me with the indelible impression that it is Not A Place For Me.

Also, I didn't mean to object to the hair conversation. Just throwing in a little light digression.

It shows. Those are the pictures I love most - of people as they are, having a good time, not posing artificially to the camera.

Oh, and while I'm at it (and I'm sorry for having over half my posts here lately being F2F-pictures-this and F2F-pictures-that, but anyway) - Vortex? The color of that wrap thing you had for the prom was gorgeous on you. But even that simple t-shirt you wore on the evening before, perhaps? The light-blue one? That color looked amazing on you, too.

Hmm, y'all talk hair-styles, with long words and links and pictures and all that. I only manage to post "Pretty!".

I was just teasing, Corwood, dawg. And I can see why you might feel that way...like a murder po-lice in a pink shirt. Even if it fits, not worth the ribbing is it? And my functional illiteracy once again made me the Boo Radley of Music. Well, we'll always have Movies, bunk.

Tag!

erika, I love the way you write. [Edit: ha! And Corwood, too!]

Timelies.

The hair talk reminds me that I need to make a hair appointment. (No major changes -- just getting rid of split ends and neatening up the layers.)

I woke up at about 1 today. Still not really feeling fully awake.

How did Emmet take it?

He picked her up and carefully carried her off the ferry, all the way up the gangway to the docks. Then he said, "My arms are getting tired." So I took Em. Then he shook his arms twice and said, "Okay" and I was obliged to give her back.
