Also I suck at google cricket. I think I would suck at regular cricket even more.

Tooth looks like it should be boring for a while. Filling on Thursday (endos don't to fillings, just insides, apparently,)
When you mentioned blueberry cake in Noah's incident, threw me back. I was off blueberries and crepes for almost a couple decades thanks to a stomach flu that started with me barfing in my parents' bed. It was very purple and gooey. Not the first time I ruined my parents' bed; first was when mom's water broke with me & ruined her bed and favorite moccasins.
...should remind her of that next time she suggests we share a hotel bed(no.)

His was popcorn. But it won't stop him, I'm sure.

Aversion therapy in the form of barfing is really effective with me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The only thing that concerns me now is that most of the opposition is because the bill isn't cruel enough. But hopefully if they were to make the bill worse, they'd lost more moderate Rs.
That probably means the Republicans have to go to Pelosi to get Dem votes which will save pre-existing conditions and Medicare.
They'll have to move to the middle, keep the moderate Republicans and lose the far right.

Why can't they just fix some of the problems with Obamacare, and claim they repealed it? It's not like anyone's actually going to read the fucking law.

Note to self: eating a pound of cherries is delicious but really not good for your tummy later.
Kat I had never considered that laundry possibility re: popcorn and I am horrified.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Nope. They're going for straight-up repeal with no replacement. These fuckers aren't moving to the middle for anything, however much they're cutting off assorted noses to spite faces.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Ooh, I thought this was nice and pointed, from NPR:
Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell, hailed for all of his senatorial maneuverability, does not appear so enviable Tuesday morning. He showed he could gum up the system and manipulate the rules to deny a president of a different party, but he has not showed the ability to control his caucus in order to govern — the way past great Senate leaders have.

Our wings are not tired.
McConnell deserves smites worse than I can manage at this early hour.
