ebonlock: (Bollocks!)
Home sick again, while I managed to get some productive coughing done thanks to the Mucinex (hey, it actually works, go figure), the fever, lightheadedness and slight nausea made the very idea of working seem almost laughable. I rubbed my face this morning and realized my sinuses are hurting too, joy. But I've got some flu meds, more Mucinex, buttloads of water and Gatorade, soup and yogurt so I'm well supplied at least until the fever breaks and I become fully functional again.

I will say I have some decidedly odd fever dreams. Really mundane stuff, like every day actions only just a little off kilter. Every time I woke up with a coughing fit I was just deeply puzzled.

In other news, you know how I said Hachi was a klepto? This morning I found the necklace I'd taken off Saturday night and left on the bathroom counter in the living room. The pendant in one area and the chain in another. I think the top of my dresser is about the only safe place to leave things any more.

Also on the Hachi front I've seen no signs of live worms for the past few days and she's let me clean her butt to be sure so the second dose of meds may have done the trick. Won't know for sure until it wears off, though. She and Kage have spent the past few days huddled around me on the couch. Every time I get up to go somewhere Hachis' right at my feet. I think she's going to be very sad when my health gets back to normal.

And finally I had to take out the litter this morning and I noticed some footprints on the deck in the copious pollen. Looks like I've been visited by a rather large raccoon. This bodes ill for trying to grow any veggies or fruits this season. I'm also going to have to be very careful about the trash. Good to know.

Words...seriously...fail:

RICHMOND [Virginia] — State Delegate Bob Marshall of Manassas says disabled children are God's punishment to women who have aborted their first pregnancy.

He made that statement Thursday at a press conference to oppose state funding for Planned Parenthood.

"The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion with handicaps has increased dramatically. Why? Because when you abort the first born of any, nature takes its vengeance on the subsequent children," said Marshall, a Republican.

"In the Old Testament, the first born of every being, animal and man, was dedicated to the Lord. There's a special punishment Christians would suggest." ...


I'm sure Palin will trot out shortly to demand Marshall's immediate resignation. Or perhaps to inform us that he was just being humorous?
