Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

sj, you might want to switch to a female doctor, one who understands just what BCP can do to a woman's body. I've had much better luck with women (although there are a few out there as dismissive as most of the male doctors.)

{{Sean}} May things go well while you're at work. Still sending ~ma for S.

AmyLiz, I'd love to join in watching The King and I with you. We've had nothing but rain and thunderstorms (and hail, again, but no car damage) for the past three days. I don't mind the thunderstorms (cheap thrills!), but I'm a little tired of the gray that goes with it.

I may do that. For the weekend at least I am going to ignore the situation and hope it goes away, because I am not able to deal.

Tons of ~ma to S that everything is fine while you're at work and from now on. Non-worrying~ma to Sean.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My male OB-gyn is so much more respectful of my own opinion about how I'm feeling. Maybe because he's really young? I don't know. Maybe he's smart enough to listen to his wife and sassy office assistant (whom I adore).

Ailleann, this is the land of Buckeye Football. Really. I mean, look at what being a part of the team did for Maurice Clarrett. *eyeroll*

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Yup. Mine too. Plus, they always give me their hand to pull myself up. I love that.

Ailleann, this is the land of Buckeye Football.

You don't have to tell me, I grew up 15 minutes from the Pro-Football Hall of Fame. The only section of our yearbook that was in color was the football section.

It's possible that I'm still a little bitter.

I need to call and make a girlie appointment. I have let that slip. The doc I used to go to moved and now I have to find a new one. Fun, fun, fun.

You wear it well.

I'm still pissed off about this because the pretty, blonde-haired cheerleeder is being plastered all over the local news. Tragic all the way around but nobody's come out and said these teenagers were WRONG and STUPID.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

The King of Thailand is indeed super-cool. Elizabeth had a shot at the coolness in 50s, but elected to go the stodgy route. More's the pity.

{{{{{sj}}}}} The only BCP that has consistently worked for me is Yasmin (neat/annoying side effect: it made my chest gain a cup size), but I think it's starting to go wacky on me, too. Grumble.

~ma for S & Sean.

Cash, it does seem like that is a case where if adults had stepped in and acted on the teens bad behavior (with a talking-to, punishment, etc.) then it would never have escalated like this.
