Blame, because I should be either writing or cooking food instead.
No, what you should really be doing is linking meeeeeeeeee.
You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Okay, I need to go get dinner and watch television. Should I a) eat the venison stew that is in the slow cooker timed to be done with the SO gets home? Or b) eat the squash enchiladas from yesterday?

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

I am with ita- and I am confused about Brians.
I am also confused by how much I love Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake together. Before History of Rap, Justin was just a blip on the radar, and Jimmy was the stupid giggler during skits on SNL, and now I love them both!

it's making her nauseated.
I will also once again advocate ginger, at least in between pills. I ingested a lot of ginger tea and ginger hard candy.

Liese, my sister had MRSA a couple of years ago; she discovered it when she kept getting these cuts that wouldn't heal and got infected. Handling it was a hassle, but it could have been much worse.
She went on a massive dose of antibiotics for a while (it was useful to have a doctor in the family--my brother is an infectious disease specialist, and was able to advise on that), and then afterwards she & her family had to spend 3 weeks or so scrubbing daily with an antibiotic soap, since it was assumed that the entire family had been colonized.
MRSA is really dangerous, but mostly if you're already immuno-compromised, I think.

Cass, it all started when she linked this, [link] which is an article about a new series from Greene, which starts in ten minutes on PBS, by the by.
Then in response to my thanks, she linked this [link] which is Cox's TED page.
And from there, I went here [link]
Welcome to this evening's rabbit hole! Ooh, and the new series starts in ten minutes. Perfect!
ETA:
See, that's not him or him.
I would gladly watch either of these gentlemen give a TED talk, too.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Liese, so many good thoughts to your friend.
I am totally calling smonster "Frodo" henceforth.
But--but, Dana's Frodo! When she's not a drunk streetlamp.

Last year's sinus infection that would not die, plus my several years of sores that won't heal, turned out to be MRSA. Community-acquired MRSA is becoming much more common, to the point that they now do nasal swabs for MRSA for people going into surgery. For that level, I had a month of a combination of antibiotics and a booklet about disinfecting everything. It can be really scary if acquired during surgery or in a larger wound.

My birthstone is topaz, which I've always disliked. Not that I wear jewelry anyway.
If I'd been a boy I would have been named Adam. I don't know why - me and one of my sisters were named after characters in books my mom read in her third trimester and after that they switched to family names, but Adam is neither.
