Brian: Did you know I'm related to Bush?
Me: (looking at him funny) Huh?
Brian: Yeah I evolved from monkeys.

Brian asked me to reschedule my root canal for next Saturday, so I did.  He was worried that me coughing up phlegm this morning could be bad news, he was apparently worried I'd cough at a bad time and bite the dentist's finger off, heh... I forgot to ask him why he wasn't worried about what could happen to ME if I coughed at a bad time with a DRILL in my mouth.  He was probably worried the dentist would bill him if injured and I wouldn't :P

Managed to get out of robe and into clothes long enough to go get coffee

Came straight home and have been laying around in robe ever since with kitties trying to "take care of me" as I lay curled up crampy, dizzy, and overall blech.  Those of you who have kitties probably know, they mean well but their  idea of helping or taking care of you is not always so helpful.  As Brian put it "I know what it's like to be stalked by the paparazzi, I have cats"

On a positive note it's sprinkling, not raining (we've already gotten something like 3 times the rain we got all of last year).  Sprinkling is nice.  Pouring rain is not.

So dizzy I can't even follow these political shows!  It's not a dizzy like the room is spinning dizzy, it's more erm... ugh wish I would explain, but words fail me so back to being curled up and doing nothing I go.

Stolen from Dutch WOTD:

"Door schade en schande wordt men wijs."
("Once bitten, twice shy." Literally: "Through damage and shame one becomes wise.")

Even though they basically mean the same thing, I like the literal translation better than the English Once bitten, twice shy version.

"If you elect the Democrats they'll tax you into the poor house, and on the way, you'll meet a terrorist on every corner, and when you try to run away, you'll stumble over an illegal immigrant." - Bill Clinton on the GOP message this election season.

If you're an American, registered to vote, haven't done so in early voting, do it tomorrow!  Don't assume your vote doesn't count or that your candidate(s) are safe without your vote.  Brian, who usually doesn't vote, wants to register because of the last presidential election because it taught him voting does count.
