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.

McConnell deserves smites worse than I can manage at this early hour.

If one gets up for a 7AM meeting that only lasts 20 minutes, is one glad it's over quickly or miffed that it didn't last longer?

I'm going to go with gratitude it is over quickly.

I need to send those puking stories to my mother, because I'm pretty sure I mostly puked on the floor as a kid (and then climbed into bed with her, aww, sweet!). I threw up reliably on holidays and vacations.

The good news is that the county licensor who inspected last week (we did well, only minor problems that were corrected in front of the inspector person) noticed the split in the carpet that is located under my desk and is recomending to the landlord that it be replaced. She's calling it a trip hazard.

That is perfect -- I like it when The Man actually helps get things done.

I went in for a mammogram follow up and now they are doing a biopsy. I am scared

Sophia, based on some quick googling, it's entirely possible that it may be nothing. A lot of time, there are just benign masses, but they obviously want to be safe and check.

When do you get the results?

Thanks- they didn't say yet. They are setting up everything right now

Dana I would be happy if my current 7am meeting wS over in 20 minutes!

Most biopsies are nothing!

Yes -- biopsies of a mass in the breast are often to confirm that it's benign.
