D has an ear infection, so he's home with DH while I'm here at work for another 3 hours, and then we'll switch. Fingers crossed that today will involve less vomiting than yesterday. Poor little noodle.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Oh, Torchwood, how I love thee. It makes me feel all patriotic and proud to be British. It is my very own cracktastic Pervy Polyamorous Big Gay Space Alien Show! Huzzah! Go Team!
That spoilery Torchwood picture gallery sent me into a paroxysm of joy. No need to guess where I'm getting my Torchwood icons from.
Six inches or more of snow last night and subzero temps with dangerous wind chills today and tonight. We're staying in the house all weekend.

Ouch. I hope he feels better.

Yep, he's on a 10-day course of amoxicillin and Tylenol for the next 48 hours for the pain & fever. Which reminds me, I need to pick up a medicine syringe on the way home, as he has recently decided that the medicine-dispensing pacifier is a horrible horrible torture device that must never EVER go in his mouth.

Poor D!
At the doctor's office yesterday I had my first normal blood pressure reading in years -- which is really quite amazing because they kept me waiting for 60+ minutes and I was quite angry about it. I attribute this sudden loss of pressure to hanging out with the puppy.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Aw, poor kid. Get better soon, little guy.

You're not the only one who has said this - does any child like that thing?

Well, I've seen it mentioned positively on ParentHacks (as a way to help babies' ears not pop on airplanes - just fill it with breastmilk instead of medicine), but D hates the thing like poison. He doesn't mind the spoon, but only because he can twist his head and get away from it...

Yay puppy!

Because books.
Yay, Sparky! Puppies are very good for blood pressure, I think. Unless they're chewing your good shoes. Or the rent money, as my brother's dog did once.
Poor D! Ear infections are the worst. We never used the medicine pacifier, though. I'm not sure I've ever seen one.
