Lots of healing ~ma and biopsy ~ma for Byron.

Get well soon, but take a long nap ~ma for Ellie!

I would very much like to give one of our part time librarians enough rope to hang herself tonight in an annual review meeting, but I'm afraid the Big Boss won't let me. (She'd hang herself by answering the question, "What hours did you work on Sunday?" because if she lies I have proof that she left in the middle of the day (elevator & garage records), and if she tells the truth then she falsified her timesheet.) Big Boss never lets me fire people who deserve it! ::pout::

So I gave in to the urge and had BK for breakfast. I have achieved a semblance of a tater tot! The sausage, egg and cheese biscuit was somewhat disappointing due to the biscuit; I miss the sourdough thing they used to have for a breakfast sandwich.

Must have a light lunch, though. And take a long walk afterwards.

Sparky, that's bothersome enough to make me need a mouth guard, against the teeth-grinding I would be doing.

Nora, back~ma for you. I'm glad Taz is there to keep you company. Maybe he will purr you better.

Stephanie, I'm glad Ellie is ok today.

There was more, but I forgot.

P.S. I'm not crazy about tater tots. Probably because I first encountered them as school food.

Tater tots are one of those things that I'm surprised I still like. It was certainly a staple comfort food in my house growing up, but some of those I ate so much that I just can't eat them anymore (like rice with cream of tuna sauce). We usually ate tater tots in tater tot casserole, which was tater tots, cream of mushroom soup, and ground beef. I don't eat them that way very much any more, but do get cravings for it every once in a while.

I need someone to talk me off a ledge before I go postal on all the anti-vaccination nutjobs on my local parenting list.

It is not a "complicated issue." The only question you need to ask yourself is "Do I want my child to die of [insert childhood disease here]?" If the answer is no, GET THE FUCKING SHOTS. How many times does the autism myth need to be debunked before these people get it through their thick skulls that VACCINES SAVE FUCKING LIVES??????

Nora's back had better start behaving. Glad Taz is coming out of hiding, though.

I must say, my thought was whoever names a pet Taz (and I realize he was already named when you got him) is really kinda asking for it. Even if it's meant ironically.

A lot more if John McCain has anything to say about it.

Jessica, come off the ledge! Ignore the crazy talkers!

Vaccinations are just so simple, if you ask me. Do I want my kid to get polio? NO. And chicken pox may not kill you, but if you can avoid the itching and scarring and general ICK, why wouldn't you?

Don't explodiate the idiots, Jess. It won't make them any smarter, and we don't want you in jail. (That said, I second your ARGH)

Yeah, Jessica, I don't get that one either. Step away from the crazy.
