Much ~ma continuing for Sean & S. I know it is very scary and serious. Also, the agitation that you described is not unusual in someone so ill. With both my father and late DH there were times when they were so horribly agitated that loved ones couldn't be in the room with them for more than brief moments. It is unbelievably tough.
Public alert: Just don't listen to NPR this morning. You don't need to hear how awesome and inspiring Palin is. Trust me on this.
We have a couple of smart boards at work. They're great, but they require smart employees to run them. I'm sure teachers would have no problem getting the bells and whistles to work. Sadly, I can't say the same about many of my coworkers. However, they also function effectively as really, really expensive whiteboards. At which point you can hear one of the IT staff sobbing quietly in a corner.

You'll be in my thoughts today.
Sean, I'm so sorry you and S are going through this. All my ~ma is funneling straight to Burbank.
Sean, my thoughts and prayers are with you and S - modern medicine is a truly wonderful thing. May the full force of it be with her.
{{Sean and S}} I hope today brings better news and hope.
I had a dream last night that I was at a party at Glamcookie & her DW's house, and I brought Jack McCoy (from Law & Order) with me as a date and he kicked in their new bathroom door. Damn you McCoy!!!!
Due to evil cats and nerves, I didn't fall asleep until almost 3. I can't keep this up. I'm running on empty, and commuting an hour this tired is scary. In line for coffee now.
Sean, like JZ, I thought about you guys as soon as I woke up.
Sean - all the ~ma you need. That is just terrible.
Barb - that teacher is just ridiculous. Now, if only you could force HER to sign something that would make her responsible for replacing your daughter's laptop should anything happen to it during the non-school day hours.
Man, I stayed up way too late watching Nadal/Fish. WAAAY to late. I am tired and headachey. But I have to say that my decision to NOT watch the RNC is really working for me as the soundbites I hear on the news fill me with RAGE.
But did you hear what Peggy Noonen and Mike Murphy said when they didn't realize their mics were live?
