cyranoGuh. Still sneezy. My joints are on fire. Still can't sleep. And fasting bloodwork is no fun for anybody involved. At least I don't have a migraine.
And I finally read the text of what Sen. Boxer actually said to Sec'y Rice, and I'm finding it simply mind boggling that somebody can turn an obviously privelege-focused point that 'neither you nor I have a family member at risk because we're so rich and powerful that our family members would never be put in a position of mortal peril even if they were to volunteer to serve' (and I note that she not only included herself but put herself *first* in that category) and turn it into 'you don't have any kids and so you obviously can't make life or death decisions'. Which just makes no sense, even if a member of the American Family Association said it, with great vigor and threats of a boycott of something.
I have heard rumor that April is the cruelest month. All I can say is "I hope not."
