I'm so sorry, GC.
Giardia, Sparky?! That's wild. Where do they think Sass got it?
We're having snow, freezing rain, and ice here today. A trifecta of suck.
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

Goodness knows. She's a puppy so she's not very good at the "leave it" command. (My mother would interrupt to point out that it is me and my DH who are not very good with the "leave it" command and remind me of the overarching rule: Don't blame the dog.)
My only real experience with Giardia is knowing a hang glider pilot who crashed in the hills and had to hike out who picked it up from drinking stream water. He nearly died. So, good to know that it's very treatable if you actually get it treated.

My mother had giardia years and years ago, and it took them forever to figure out what it was. I'm not sure they ever figured out how she got it.

Mostly lurking...
Oh, poor puppy! I hope she feels better soon!
I'm at the point in my writing when I really want to say, "So, I've said all that, now you're wondering, 'So what?! How does that all apply to oral history?'" Not really very scholarly, though. Must think of a better way to transition.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Storm and health ~ma to those that need it.
After a week of wacky weather that included the 40's on Sunday, Rain on Monday, turning to snow on Tuesday and plunging to -15º F Tuesday night, we are back in the (very average) 20's today.

not your mom's socks.
does anyone know/is anyone related to an airline flight attendant who might be willing to answer a question or two (off the record is fine) from me?

Now tagless for your comfort.
Our former babysitter is an airline attendant, Sox. Want I should hook you up?

You could track down Alibelle (has anybody SEEN our princess Ali?), I believe she has one in the family.
