I forgot my medicine this morning. No big, but I hate it when I do it.
It is yucky windy rainy yuck outside, BUT like 50 degrees. Yay?
Cacophony. That's pretty. What's it mean?

This morning I tore half my eyelashes out when I was curling them and was startled by the sound of a limb cracking and falling outside (not on our property, but the neighbors).
IOW, ouch.
Also, my computer has a virus and the computer person keeps saying "I've never seen that before."
IOW, sigh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Ouch, Sparky.

Someone else made the coffee in the office this morning, thank goodness.

Ah, dude. Really? I feel bad for South Carolina. It isn't quite as bad when he explained more (I tried to find an article that gave more context), but still.
The Article: [link]
GREENVILLE - Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer has compared giving people government assistance to "feeding stray animals."
Bauer, who is running for the Republican nomination for governor, made his remarks during a town hall meeting in Fountain Inn that included state lawmakers and about 115 residents.
"My grandmother was not a highly educated woman, but she told me as a small child to quit feeding stray animals. You know why? Because they breed. You're facilitating the problem if you give an animal or a person ample food supply. They will reproduce, especially ones that don't think too much further than that. And so what you've got to do is you've got to curtail that type of behavior. They don't know any better," Bauer said.
In South Carolina, 58 percent of students participate in the free and reduced-price lunch program.
Bauer's remarks came during a speech in which he said government should take away assistance if those receiving help didn't pass drug tests or attend parent-teacher conferences or PTA meetings if their children were receiving free and reduced-price lunches.

Every once and a while I come upon this word use thing at work that drives me crazy. We have a set of rules for what amount of money you get back if you drop an on-line class. We call them procedures. But there is not procedure; the document does not tell you how to withdraw or get a refund, it just tells you the rule about what amount you get back. I would call this a policy. But apparently you cannot have a true policy without the faculty voting on it, and rules that the faculty did not vote on are called procedures. BUT THERE IS NO PROCEDURE!!!

Um, it's just as bad. Take away the stuff about "breeding" and he's still proposing withholding food from needy children in order to punish their parents' bad choices.
(ETA: and I should probably put scare quotes around bad choices, since apparently missing a PTA meeting seems to qualify.)
