self education

so i googled the words "what is swine flu?" - you know - cause i was curious.  i don't think i've read a single article that really has said what it was.  so i once again employed intern google. 

 

this is what i found:  http://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/flu-guide/20061101/swine-flu-faq

 

it's quite helpful.  especially the part where it says i can still eat bacon.  that's a good thing.  almost everything is better with bacon.

 

so i just thought that i would share with everyone the answer to the "what is swine flu" question.  i think if you read this - and not the articles on the major news webpages - then there's a chance that people everywhere may be just a touch less panicked about it...

just not sure i can handle this "growing up thing".....

you know.  many years ago i had this little bitty baby.  really little.  like five pounds, 10 ounces.  tiny.  and she was cute.  and she cooed.  and she squawked.  and sometimes she just downright screamed.  but it was okay. 

 

then when she was 15 months old she started to walk. 

 

and when she was about 2, she started to babble. 

 

and then when she was 11 she spent an entire weekend driving me crazy asking me every five minutes if she could call her boyfriend and stomping away when she didn't like the answer.

 

and now i have a strong desire to trade her in for a kitten.... 

my apologies...

i really didn't realize that i hadn't posted in two months. i mean - i knew i was a bit m.i.a. just been a lot going on, you know? work. girl scout cookies. work. sick cats. more work.

sadly - karen seacrest hasn't gotten off the ground and i don't think it's going to happen either. have yet to break it to the bracket crew.

but now that i've broken my silence, i promise i will try to resume posting on a more consistant basis. i mean it. really....
