Yay, Dana and DH!
Kate, flinging love back at you and M. The pictures of Chesterfield and Worthington have cheered me up a great deal.

Yay, Dana! Is it where you currently live, or would it involve yet another move? (Perhaps back to warmer climes, although I appreciate having you in my time zone.)

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I would love warmer climes, but no, this is actually at the same place where I work. In the same building, no less.

All caught up on 800+ posts since last Friday. To sum up:
Yay for baby Aeryn!!!
Yay for Dana's hub's job offer!!!
Yay for everyone who did onerous tasks!!!
Boo for anyone's illnesses or other bad things happening!!!
I had to take a short break from work the afternoon and go over to the doctor's for a blood pressure check and brief chat with my PCP. Turns out the blood pressure that was at 155/92 last time we checked is now at 120/70--woohoo!!! Doctor says I should continue with the Lisinopril for a little while, but I can start cutting them in half. Also, they took some blood to see where my Vitamin D level is.
As a little reward for myself for doing so well on the post-surgery, I called and scheduled an hour massage on Saturday afternoon--got a coupon for a $50 session.
My onerous task for tonight is to do my laundry after picking up a pill box and cutter at Walgreens, and then tomorrow, I'm dropping off my kitchen knives at Ace Hardware to get sharpened, because trying to chop up an onion was getting a bit difficult.

Aw! Yeah, me too. I won't lie, I usually have a picture of one of the kitties open in another tab while I'm at work. Always happy to spread the kittylove!

Oh, and I meant to say:
Happy Birthday, shrift!!
Now that I've lost some weight, I can finally have my way-too-long-delayed pap smear, which I'm going to schedule along with the rest of the complete physical in mid-February. I'm hoping the doctor will give me the okay to go off of the Lisinopril then.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
So nice to see all the good news here! Welcome baby Aeryn! Congrats to the whole family.
And yay for Dana and DH!
(I am totally ignoring the bleaching conversation.)
>To wit: if the state government refuses to defend the proposition, do the proponents of the proposition (i.e., the homophobes) have standing to defend it from being overturned?
I am running out the door and I hate to post a question and run, but there are so many smart lawyer types here and I've been wondering for a while now why the proponents would have been given standing after the Gov and the Atty Gen refused to defend it. So how does that sort of thing work?
