I have to tell my strep story, because every time I hear about someone with strep, I think about it.

In high school, I had plans to go see a movie with my girlfriend on a Friday. But I had a bad sore throat, so I made a Dr. appointment. My girlfriend was mad at me, because the Dr. might diagnose something bad and then I wouldn't be able to go out with her that night. And it turned out I had strep, so I couldn't go to the movie. So my girlfriend went with my best friend instead. After the movie their car broke down, and they ended up sleeping together, because she was still mad at me for going to the Dr.

Guys... the poopieheds are so not worth the effort.

I'm in bed with my leg propped up, as instructed, and the heated pad, as instructed, and I keep eating stuff so that my stomach won't be upset by the naproxyn.

I'm... kind of at my wit's end. I should be able to work, but I'm staring at the manuscript like it's written in Urdu. The hell?

tommy, that's just so wrong... jeez.

Yes, but they will always be wrong and you'll always be pretty AND right.

YES! Yes I will!!

Barb - you get on IM and talk Mad Men with me...Maybe get the juices flowing by doing something else?

And you have a tiara.

Yes I do!

And my post should have said, "You *could* get on IM. I wasn't ordering you. That sounded snooty and icky.

tommyrot - wow. Your story just took all of my today's rants and stared at them with a scary look.

High school, huh?

Dag, tommyrot. I'm going to go ahead and say you were better off without both of them.

You can start by reminding me that trying to argue sense with the craxyheads that post to the online version of our local newspaper leads to head-to-desk-banging and the pulling of hair/gnashing of teeth.

Don't do it!!! That never ends well.

It's going to be a nightmare when he's a teen right?

Yes. I have a friend who has to cook enormous quantities of meat for her husband and child every single day, and the boy is only like 3. She's kind of terrified.

A hospital for military dogs has opened in Texas (at Lackland AFB.)

Just because they are hilarious, here is the aforementioned meat-eating father and son: [link] Probably best to watch without sound...
