Oh! I took Cipro when I got sick in Ethiopia and we're pretty sure it did just as much to make me feel bad as whatever the illness was. Super weak and nauseated, unable to sleep for more than an hour or two at a time.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

I took Cipro in Peru with no ill effects, thankfully.
Found some more anti-histamines. Still scratching.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Consuela, they make a Benadryl ointment which I've used on mosquito bites. If you have a lot of hives, it's probably not practical, but you could smear it on the itchiest spots.

Yeah, that's... not practicable. It's my ankles to my neck, and down my arms.
... and now my ears itch.
Topical won't do it. I'ma go back to bed for a while and then walk down to Walgreens.

Yikes, Suela. That sounds like a nightmare.

Thanks for sending the 2009 Income Caps AFTER I figured everything out using the 2008 numbers. That was fantastic.

Could be worse.
I'm just itchy. Pretty much everywhere.

Kucinich was just playing hard to get
This morning, Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, will hold a press conference to announce how he’s voting on healthcare reform. Since he has up to this point been a "no" vote, the fanfare presumably means he’s changed his mind.
..
Opposing the bill would have ended any future he might have had as an influential figure in the progressive movement. Kucinich was hoping for a more progressive bill, and thought that by holding out he might pull his party leftward on the issue. If he'd ended up voting against reform, he almost certainly would have had the opposite effect.
At the New Republic, Jon Chait chalks up the apparent change of heart to the Ohio congressman’s sympathy for the uninsured. "Kucinich may be crazy but he's not... well, he is kind of stupid. Okay, he may be crazy and stupid, but he's not completely indifferent to the plight of the disadvantaged. So he's got that going for him."
Heh.
