I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, Suzi, phew.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, he was found, walking home from school over 2 hours late. His dad found him. I was home talking with 2 police officers to file a missing person's report.

My dear, darling child decided at lunch today to see if he could join the cast of Guys and Dolls and had been in the drama room the whole time. I had stopped by the drama room when I was searching the school. I didn't see him through the window and I didn't hear his voice. Plus he had never mentioned the play to me, has never done a play in the past, so I didn't open the door to look further.

He has gotten an ear full from his dad and me. Plus hearing his sister cry with frustration. Now he is working on home work and I've put myself on time out in my room to calm down.

Thanks for all the ~ma.

I'm glad CJ's ok, Suzi.

my problem with the health care bill is the continued reliance on insurance companies.

Yes. They don't add any value to the medical system. What say we put the money that would be going into insurance company profits into paying for more, better paid nurses? Home health care to support aging in place? Student loan forgiveness for health workers who are willing to work in underserved areas? You know—stuff that actually improves the health of the population.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just mailed in a claim on our old insurance, which I have to do manually for a number of reasons. The form is terrifying. It's so burdensome.
