Slowest News Day Ever

I suspected the world had come to a stand-still when they let Erin Burnett back on the famed first hour of Today (who is very lucky people want to stare at more than her charisma), but when they hit the popularity dive of Crocs in the first 17 minutes, I started to worry it would be a v boring day.  Lo and behold, it was, confirmed when THIS made People's Headlines.  Fortunately I've got two days of Gilmore Girls taped and a Burn Notice waiting for me back at the pad to help give this sucker some kick.

The Opposite of Swollen Menengis

We just had an emergency meeting to learn that a coworker has menengitis.  Meanwhile, no sterilization has taken place, so I'm playing by my own rules, and reading The Onion online until it's time to go home.  Onion, as it turns out, isn't just a cure for vampirism, but also a cure to psyching yourself out when you realize you are a sitting duck in a cesspool of coworkers' goo.  Exhibit A.
 
I feel sooooo much better now.

Ed Swed

Loving the Bachelorette this much can't be good for me.  Or Ed.  My take-aways from Monday's epi were...
 
Things Modern Medicine can recitify for Ed: Ed being ED.
 
Things Modern Medicine can't recify for Ed: That Caesar 'do. 
 
Things I don't want Modern Medicine to rectify for Ed:  His Chicago accent and his father's Bears fandom.
 
All I can think about is who is she going to pick and how will I ever wait for the next Bachelorette!?!  It is affecting my work quality.  (That and some of the people I work with.  And what I do.)

Fwd: Confirmation from Hell

I get these email confirmations about once every three months.  I'm sorry to see my doppelganger down under has cyliacs, and am wondering if this is another sign of the impending apocalypse.  Regardless, it makes me think of a bumper sticker (maybe I'm quoting for the second time on this blog) that Matt once quoted to me - In case of rapture, this car will be unmanned.
