Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Take, drink, this is my blood. And if you were up too late last night, drink some more....

Happy Birthday Cass.

I'm sure they'd get more people coming to church regularly with coffee and donuts. But there'd be the inevitable donut schisms: powdered suger vs. regular sugar, plain vs. dipped, old fashioned vs. sour cream. And crullers! My god, the Crullers!

Oh my.

A federal bankruptcy judge Friday awarded Ron Goldman's family the rights to O.J. Simpson's canceled book, "If I Did It," which the Goldmans want to rename "Confessions of a Double Murderer."

Heh.

Goldman was slain along with Simpson's ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson in 1994. The Goldmans want the book's proceeds included as part of a nearly $33.5 million civil jury award they have been trying to collect for almost a decade.

The ruling "ensures that Mr. Simpson will never see another dime from this book," said Paul Battista, an attorney for the Goldman family.

Very good for them. Does Simpson, I wonder, need to backpay what was already given to him?

I have to input grades today and then I am done with school. Done done, and yet still forced to attend.

Grace is on a hospital OR schedule for monday, though they won't have confirmation of a diagnosis requiring surgery until that time (and frankly @@). Do I take the day off because if the results do come back positive she'll have surgery and I'll need to go to sign papers etc or do I go to work because there has been no report from pathology?

Sometimes I feel lke I'm dealing not with one Dr. House, but an entire hospital of them. Plus their damn residents.

Yesterday, one of the baby doctors at the hospital was at Grace's bedside durng rounds. Chewing gum. Blew a bubble even.

If the three of us don't get staph infections from that goddamn place it will be a miracle.

Trust my rage

I'm hoping that if they are like Dr. House in manner, they also have his skills.

The gum-chewing doctor should be sent back to school.

ION, I too am waiting to see pictures of JZ's new hair. Has anyone seen mystery-Cindy's new haircut yet?

What is even happening?

Kat, kick 'em in the sore leg and hide their pain pills.

Seriously? I'm so sorry you and your family are going through this. It's too much.

I have a question for the hivemind...

Julia got a staple through her thumb, all the way through. It went in at an angle from the side of the fleshy part, right through her fingernail. Scott got it out in one piece after quite a bit of effort. I washed it right off, then poured hydrogen peroxide on both the entry and exit wounds, then put some triple-biotic lotion (Neosporin or something like it) and a bandage on it.

I don't keep their shot records, any more. I let the doctor's office and schools worry about that. All three children had their physicals last month. Ben got a booster shot for Tentanus at the time. Julia and Chris didn't need any shots, so they're up to date.

Should I take her to the E.R., today? Do you think it would be okay to keep an eye on it (maybe soak in it Epsom salts a few times a day, change the bandage, yada) and wait to call the pediatrician, tomorrow?

I haven't had time to take a picture, Stephanie. We took some last weekend, but they were bad shots of me (the hair looked okay, it just takes Scott forever to take a picture and my face always ends up going all weird by the time he takes it).

Julia got a pixie cut on Friday. She's the first and only girl in her grade with short hair. Last night, at her softball game, as far as I can tell, she was the only girl on either team with short hair. It looks adorable. She has a little face, so the new 'do really flatters her so much better than the long hair.
