We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Damn, Jessica.

Our wings are not tired.

And once again, Jessica reminds me of why I so often proclaim that I hate people. Not you guys, or some other guys, of course, but the REST!

And thank goodness you've been vaccinated, as well as the kiddos. And I hope E?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

If Hayden or erika predecease me, I'm obviously going to honor them with the Pogues' "The Body of an American" as is right and proper for any Wire fan.

I've told JZ I want the Pogues "If I Should Fall From Grace With God."

If I should fall from grace with God
Where no doctor can relieve me
If I'm buried 'neath the sand
Where the angels won't receive me

Let me go, boys Let me go, boys
Let me go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry

Bury me at sea
Where no murdered ghost can haunt me
If I rock upon the waves
No Corpse shall lie upon me

It's coming up three, boys
Keeps coming up three, boys
Let them go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry

That sucks, Jess.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Jessica,

are you fucking kidding?

Is there reason to believe it might be german measles (as in, has the physician seen them recently)? It seems like a remote possibility. and fucking scary...

Because books.

What's scary is that Aeryn is only a year old (plus some). So if this had been last year ...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Posting from the BSFS(Baltimore Science Fiction Society) clubhouse, where we are waiting for the Balticon meeting to start.(Gary runs the music track for Balticon) Why am I here? We had a workshop/seminar in Baltimore for a good part of the day, and it was easier to kill some time in Baltimore, than to drive back to Rockville to drop me off, and then back to Baltimore.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Is there reason to believe it might be german measles (as in, has the physician seen them recently)?

Park Slope is a notorious antivax hub, so an outbreak would not be out of the question. We've had mumps and measles outbreaks in the last 5 years, this would just complete the hat trick. And, like I said, the rash is apparently "textbook." So it's not a sure thing, but possible enough to be worth testing for.

Obviously I'm hoping for "weird random drug reaction."

And I hope E?

He's probably the most vaccinated of any of us, since he grew up in various countries all over South Asia. So he got all the regular US childhood stuff plus all the international travel shots. Typhoid, etc.


Jesse - Mar 10, 2012 2:07:02 pm PST #26156 of 30001
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I got a crazy-ass rash from penicillin that looked basically like google is telling me rubella looks like, so.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

How miserable, Jessica. At least it's called three-day measles for a reason.
