Hey, P-C and other medical types...
Is it possible for someone to be HIV+ for 6 years but still test negative on a garden-variety HIV test? Also, could said person have three children and none of them, nor her husband, be HIV+?
Right. Sir. Honey.

Don't let this happen to you.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Happy first day of new job Dana! I hope they get you access to stuff soon.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hayden Panettiere's dress seems...well, she's just so cheerful. I think that alone should get her off a worst-dressed list. It's a horrible dress, though.
I think it's only horrible in stills. She was so happy wearing it last night that she made it work.

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

I don't think hers was any worse than Kristen Bell's. I don't understand the trend of putting tiny, tiny, people in large shapeless wads of cloth. Kids today!
Of course, I also don't understand all these young men on the bus buckling their pants UNDER their butt-cheeks. Not low on the hips, but actually so that the waistband goes where I would think their penis would be, and the crotch is at their knees, and they look like they have tiny, tiny cartoon legs! It is very strange.

Stephanie, I can't speak to the test results, but my impression is female-to-male vaginal intercourse transmission of HIV is actually pretty rare; there's a 25% chance of transmitting the virus to a child during birth, assuming there is no treatment. If HIV status is known, they give drugs and do a C-section and the risk is very low. (This is Wikipedia talking).

There are ways today could have gotten worse.
They have happened.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I just saw Jenna Fischer's dress. Oh, dear.

Ann, that's a ferret.
And the local B&N has The Book.
I bought it at the local Borders over the weekend. It's this week's lunchtime reading.
Which means I'd better get going.
