I'm asking for any available political~ma for Utah State House Bill 227, the Midwife Certification Act, which has moved on from the House Health and Human Services Committee with a vote of 9 to 1. If passed, this bill would legalize the practice of direct-entry midwifery in the State of Utah, allowing women to choose home birth with better safety nets -- and yours truly could FINALLY have a job of her own.

This week from hell continues.
Vibes for our friend and downstairs neighbour, Jeannie. She is at present en route to the hospital in an ambulance; she's a type 1 diabetic and apparently her new pump has been malfunctioning for a few days. She's in some sort of ketosis shock; her blood sugar is off the scale and she hasn't eaten, has been vomiting, for nearly four days. If all this stuff with John and with Nic's job hadn't been camping in my forelobe, I might have noticed sooner, damnit.
In better news, Matt the Bruins Fan, your sleeping bag for John has arrived and will go down to John with Nic in about an hour. Thanks, all.
It's Dawn of the Dead ... match... bator.

Now that erinaceous' proposal has passed, it's time to opt in to the American National Corpus.
Remember, your posts won't count unless you opt in. For details, review the passed proposal, and the discussion that followed.
It's very last minute, but would any Bay Area-istas like to join me, Deb, and Nic for dinner tonight at the Lakeside Cafe at 2529 Ocean Ave (in San Francisco) at 7:30? If so, please contact me or Deb as soon as possible.
Not sure this is really "press-worthy" but:
The Feb. In Style magazine (Liv Tyler cover) has a piece on the AH/AD wedding.
SMG is on the cover of the March Marie Claire.
It's the end of Dawn. In a scant 5 rounds we'll have wiped her out for good chosen her winning quote.
