Question: We are traveling from Australia to Los Angeles next year as part of a larger holiday. Can you please advise the best place to try to meet the celebrities?
Answer: The psych ward at the UCLA Medical Center is where it's at these days. I'd start there.
Question: Your dance moves in this week's vodcast have hypnotized me to the point where I can't get up from my computer.
Answer: With that kind of mesmerizing talent on display, why on earth would you want to?

Question: Yay! The strike is over!
Answer: Woo-hoo! You know what this means, right? I no longer have to make up questions for this column! We can stop watching October Road!
Question: Now that the strike is over, are the actors legally obligated to return to work to complete whatever's left of the 22 episodes? Or, after a certain point, are they off the hook for the season? I guess the question is, are they signed for a specific number of episodes during a certain period of time (i.e., Aug-April), or do they have to complete the episodes no matter what the timeframe — even if that means working through the summer?
Answer: That's a very complicated question. So complicated that I'm going to hand it off to a top TV talent agent to answer: "The basic answer is that yes, actors are obligated to return and finish a certain number of episodes," explains the tenpercenter, who asked not to be identified because his coworkers aren't aware he's an Aushole. " That said, there are all sorts of variables. One is that most actors' contracts define a 'season' with a beginning and end date. So, if studios ask the acto

Question: What's the status of Amy Sherman Palladino's The Return of Jezebel James?
Answer: The status is Amy's gonna be pissed. Fox just kicked Jezebel out of its cushy post-Idol launch pad on March 12. Now, the sitcom will debut with back-to-back episodes on Friday, March 14.

Question: Why isn't the strike over yet?! What's taking so long?!
Answer: Listen here, Missy: The strike will be over when I say it's over — and not a moment before. And I say it'll be over shortly after this Saturday's big WGA meeting, during which the negotiating committee is expected to present the tentative deal to the membership. According to one of my moles, "If the membership seems supportive of the deal, the strike order could be lifted shortly — even though it could take several more weeks to formally ratify the agreement." To find out what this means for your favorite shows, keep reading. And have a handkerchief handy.
As reported earlier today, the folks behind American Idol are reviving Match Game. I may be in the minority here, but my restrained response to this news was something akin to "Woo-hoo!" I loved that show both in its heyday and in reruns on the Game Show Network if only because it's the strangest anthropological documentation of 1970s comedy, sexual mores and substance abuse that you're ever going to find on network television. It was pretty subversive for a game show (see examples on YouTube), with more cigarette smoking, daytime drinking and winking sexism/sexual innuendo than your average episode of Mad Men.So we asked you who you'd put on the show's inaugural panel. Who are today's Richard Dawsons, Brett Sommerses, and Charles Nelson Reillys? And you responded in kind, with some very interesting suggestions. (Mario Cantone? Genius. Jimmy Fallon? Eh.) That said, here are my humble suggestions for the inaugural sextet. 1) Pamela Anderson: If anyone knows her wa...

Question: If the strike ends in the next week or so, can the current TV season be salvaged?
Answer: Depends on the network and the show. A source at one of the Big 4 tells me that should the strike end by mid-February, one best-case scenario being bandied about has established series going back into production and working through June, making more episodes for this season and some for next. Then they'll take a summer break before starting regular production on next season. The reason for this is twofold: They don't want to bail out on this season, but they also don't want to go to the expense of putting shows back into production for just two or three episodes. One industry observer describes this as "a smart plan," while acknowledging that there's another variable in all this: the actors. "The trouble is, a lot of actors schedule hiatus movies, or just elaborate vacations. And if they ask them to work through certain dates, that

Question: I hear that the strike is over! Is it true?
Answer: Nothing's official, but the buzz is that a tentative agreement has been reached, with an announcement coming as early as tomorrow. But it's hard to tell what's solid intel and what's just spin. To wit: In the past 24 hours, one source close to the negotiations insisted that talk of a resolution was way premature. "There's no deal," maintained my spy. "That's just misinformation put out by the AMPTP to pressure the WGA." But moments before I put this column to bed, I heard from another very plugged-in source that the deal is done. Short story shorter: There's cause for optimism, but not celebration. Yet.
Jenna Fischer by Steve Granitz/WireImage.com
Hollywood was all abuzz last evening as actors near and far gathered for what has proven to be the biggest awards show of the year the 2008 Screen Actors Guild Awards. Beloved TV Guide correspondent Michael Ausiello was right there on the red carpet for all the action, interviewing everyone and anyone worth mentioning. Personally, we were big fans of the Rainn Wilson interview where he breaks the news that costar Angela Kinsey is with child, but really, nothing beats his arts-and-crafts discussion with Jenna Fischer!

Series Description
The Central Park West TV show was a 60 minute drama series on CBS. It was a primetime soap opera that concentrated on the greedy, sex-crazed, power hungry staff at a trendy New York magazine.
Central Park West Cast
Mariel Hemingway .... Stephanie Wells (1995)
Lauren Hutton .... Linda Fairchild Rush
Tom Verica .... Mark Merrill
Ron Leibman .... Allen Rush
Madchen Amick .... Carrie Fairchild
John Barrowman .... Peter Fairchild
Melissa Errico .... Alex Bartoli
Justin Lazard .... Gil Chase
Michael Michele .... Nikki Sheridan
Kylie Travis .... Rachel Dennis
Raquel Welch .... Dianna Brock (1996)
Gerald McRaney .... Adam Brock (1996)
Noelle Beck .... Jordan Tate (1996)
Central Park West Trivia
The name of the magazine on the series was, "Communique".
Central Park West's ratings were terrible so CBS pulled it off the air in November of 1995 after just nine episodes. CBS executives felt, however, that the basic premise of the series was good so they made changes to the cast and storylines. They planned to bring the series back in the spring of 1996 but it didn't return until June. They also changed the title from "Central Park West" to simply "CPW" for some strange reason. Mariel Hemingway's character who was just about the only human being with any decency on the show was eliminated. Raquel Welch, Gerald McRaney ("Simon and Simon"), and Noelle Beck ("Tucker") were added to the cast. The changes apparently didn't result in anything suitable to CBS and Central Park West ended after just eight more episodes.
Interestingly, Raquel Welch had nearly won the role of "Alexis Carrington" on another primetime soap titled, "Dynasty" in the early 1980s but Joan Collins won the role.
Several of the Central Park West characters came to vicious ends during the series. Alex Bartoli went nuts stabbed herself to death while trying to kill Peter Fairchild. Mark Merrill accidentally shot himself with his own gun. Allen Rush died of a heart attack after his hostile takeover of Communique failed.
Episodes List With Original Air Dates Central Park West was one of those rare series where the episodes were not given titles. We've still included an episode list in order to provide you with the original air dates.

So I fell in love with that blouse … I kept it in my favourites, waiting for the right fabric to show up…
And it did! Strawberries!!!
So I shamelessly copied elegantmusing's blouse!
I did not get the chance to sew much since September, my studies being a little bit overwhelming. So taking time off to make something cute to wear when it's sunny was so cool! Now I can go back to studying.
I made the pattern from a burda magazine one that was pretty simple (118 from 12/2012), I only added the collar.
Sewing that collar was a bit challenging, specially sewing the white part to the red one!
Oh and also I got to add one of the tags my boyfriend gave my for christmas :D

Lamb of God's Randy Blythe Offers Update on Condition of His Private Parts
We're happy to report that the Lamb of God frontman is 100 percent recovered!
We're happy to report that the Lamb of God frontman is 100 percent recovered!
Yesterday (June 3), we learned that GWAR vocalist Dave Brockie's cause of death was an accidental heroin overdose. The news spread quickly and garnered emotional reactions from fans around the world, one of
Rest in peace, Dave Brockie! The beloved GWAR frontman, also known as Oderus Urungus, touched many in the music industry with not only his outspoken and entertaining ways, but also the way in which he treated others. One of those who had a long-running friendship with Brockie was Lamb of God frontman Randy Blythe, who had a chance to speak at the musician's memorial service.
It was one of the more emotion-fueled concert experiences of 2012 and many top rockers from the metal community joined the members of Suicide Silence to honor the memory of the band's late frontman Mitch Lucker. That special show has now been unleashed as the 'Ending Is the Beginning' CD/DVD/Blu-Ray release and the band has just served up the performance of 'You Only Live Once' with Lamb of God's Randy Blythe as a new video.
Ever since Lamb of God vocalist Randy Blythe was arrested in the Czech Republic on manslaughter charges, a million questions have been directed at Blythe and the rest of the "pure American metal" band.
Back in July, it was announced that Lamb of God vocalist Randy Blythe would write a memoir of his Czech manslaughter case. In a new catalog from Da Capo Press, the publishers of Blythe's 'Dark Days: My Tribulation and Trials,' the memoir will be released in summer 2014.
Lamb of God vocalist Randy Blythe recently recruited Testament guitarist Alex Skolnick for a new 'wacked out' musical project he's recording using his iPad.
Lamb of God frontman Randy Blythe meets a lot of admirers when the band is out on tour, but the vocalist recently shared a humorous anecdote from the road where he obliviously met and hung out with Michael C. Hall, star of the recently wrapped TV series 'Dexter.'
Rockers have always been rough and tough looking, it comes with the genre and so it got me thinking about which rockers I would NOT want to see in a dark alley or take a punch from and here's my Top 5.
As we reported earlier, Lamb of God vocalist Randy Blythe was been found not guilty of manslaughter by a Czech court today (March 5). Metalheads worldwide are exhaling a long sigh of relief at the moment, and some of rock and metal's biggest names have offered their congratulations to Blythe for standing his ground and proving his innocence once and for all.
Lamb of God frontman Randy Blythe was acquitted of manslaughter charges in the Czech Republic when a not guilty verdict was handed down today (March 5). After spending five weeks in a a Czech prison this past summer and standing trial over two sessions this winter, Blythe is a free man.
Slash has been making his way around the world in support of his 'Apocalyptic Love' album, and during a recent visit to the Czech Republic he shared his thoughts on the Randy Blythe manslaughter trial and his perception of the legal system from the outside.

Watch live NBA games with League Pass Mobile for iPhone
The NBA, via MobiTV, has made available its "League Pass" service to the iPhone via the League Pass Mobile app [iTunes link]. Like the MLB At Bat app [iTunes link], League Pass Mobile allows you to stream live NBA games onto your iPhone -- over 40 live NBA games per week. There's also the ability to view stats from the current game, and look at scores from games across the league. Subscribers can also replay full games up to 48 hours after the game has been played.
I'm a basketball junkie, and a former subscriber of NBA League Pass Broadband, the NBA's desktop version of the service -- former, because I actually just canceled my subscription yesterday. I found the service subjected too many games to blackouts, which often prevented me from watching many games of my beloved world champion Los Angeles Lakers. As a result, I'd often hop on over to my local sports bar to watch the game, which set me back at least US $12 with beer factored in. This year, instead, I'll be sacrificing the comfort of watching games in front of my desktop (and now the potential of watching it on my iPhone) for the peace of mind that the game I want to watch will be available at my local sports bar.
NBA League Pass Mobile is available for US $39.99 in the App Store.

It is connected to the the Karakorum Highway through jeepable road. The Valley is known of mountain ecosysytem. The traditional name of Bar is Shain Bar. The area offer a wide range of habitats for a variety of flora and fauna. The main tree species are willow, juniper, ash and birch, Siberian ibex and snow leopard are among the important wildlife species. By late 1980's the natural resource of Bar were threatened because of population pressure, expansion of agriculture, increase in the number of livestock and subsistence hunting by the locals. The population of Ibex was nearing extinction and the snow leopards were also poisoned to protiect domestic livestock. One of the most serious problem in part of the Bar Valley is the over utilization of certain pastures and valley bottom woodland for grazing and fuel-wood collection. Already there are encouraging signs of reduced incidences of landslides and erosion.Our Mission: As we try our best to share our happiness with you, we always prefer to provide you one of the best competitive NET rates to go one step ahead in future for mutual benefits.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Election season is in full swing, and several candidates in south Queens races made their pitch to voters at the Ozone Park Civic Association candidates night on Tuesday.
Some of the Republican and Democratic candidates for Assembly, state Senate and Congress shared their views with residents. Several of those running in local races did not attend the event.
In fact, the only race where voters got to hear from both candidates was in the 23rd Assembly District, where incumbent Audrey Pheffer (D-Ozone Park) is facing Republican Harold Paez, a podiatrist who resides in the Rockaways.
Pheffer began by noting that many voters are frustrated that the state budget is often late, but she said in the case of this year's, she and others in the Assembly did not agree with Gov. Paterson's proposal and had to change parts of it.
"I couldn't accept parts of the budget," she said. "I won't pass it just to say it's on time."
Pheffer cited the proposed tax on sugared soda drinks and cuts to the state Tuition Assistance Program as some of the governor's plans that she didn't agree with.
Pheffer also touted her constituent services efforts, saying her office will try and resolve any issue or problem a resident brings.
Pheffer said her legislative agenda reflects her commitment to helping the average resident, noting a bill she helped craft that provides for stricter penalties for identity theft.
Pheffer also praised the selection of Genting New York LLC to redevelop Aqueduct Racetrack into a dining and entertainment facility with 4,500 video lottery terminals.
Paez told the audience that he is running for Assembly because he wants to bring a significant change to the "dysfunctional" way Albany operates.
Paez noted the $9 billion state deficit as proof of the legislature's reckless spending.
"That is not a good position for any state to be in," he said.
Paez said despite being in one of the worst economic times since the Great Depression, the state government still had spending increases the last two years.
Paez said he supports a cap on property taxes, and pledged to vote against any new taxes if elected.
The candidate said he supports instituting more charter schools in the city, something he believes the legislature "was forced to do" in order to receive federal funds for the Race to the Top program.
Paez also took aim at Pheffer's 20 years of service in the Assembly. He supports term limits and said his opponent has been part of the Albany culture for too long.
"I want to bring some common sense back to Albany," he said. "We have to have the strength of will to change what is wrong."
Also speaking at the event were state Sen. Joe Addabbo (D-Howard Beach), who is facing a challenge from Republican Anthony Como.
Addabbo said the state has been through "two tough years" since his election to the Senate, but was proud that the legislature did not raise property taxes during that time.
"I was given a charge to cut the spending, and that's what we are doing," he said.
Addabbo also touted the Aqueduct project, and said he doesn't think the racino will lead to an increase in crime in the area.
Assemblyman Mike Miller (D-Glendale) told those in attendance that he is a "24-hour assemblyman" whose office is always open any time to a constituent with a problem.
Miller touted several pieces of legislation he has introduced, including one that would prevent registered sex offenders from working with children in any capacity.
Congressional candidate Asher Taub, a Republican challenging Democrat Greg Meeks in the 6th CD, said the number one issue facing the country is the federal budget deficit.
He said it is caused by borrowing on the part of the federal government since the 1930s, a trend that must stop.
Taub took aim at the healthcare reform law passed this year, which he termed "a disaster."
His proposed ideas to reduce healthcare costs include changing the current law for medical malpractice actions so doctors can be sued only for gross negligence, not under the standard for recklessness. He said that it would cause doctors' insurance premiums to significantly drop, and, coupled with reduction of unnecessary and expensive medical tests, could reduce health care expenditures by a significant margin.

4 Beat Gaited Saddle
Trail Saddles
For Sale on eBay
Manufacturer: Imus
Model: 4 Beat Gaited Saddle
Category: Trail Saddles
Purchase: How I acquired this saddle was reading what some of the people were saying on their message board and because I had recently purchased a gaited horse I thought this would be the saddle to buy. I purchased this saddle directly from Gaits of Gold in NY. I paid $1,299 in Sept. of 2005. I send photo's as requested so they could determine the proper width for my gaited horse.
Likes: It was a nice looking saddle, comfortable with of course the supracore that certainly made the difference for the rider for those trail rides.
Dislikes: The saddle did not fit my horse. I did not like the position of the saddle on the horse. I tried several different positions and it didn't make any difference. Customer service was terrible.
Quality: The leather was on the hard side and the quality and construction left a lot to be desired.
Summary: If you plan to purchase this saddle, be sure of your measurements and get in writing if it doesn't fit you can exchange without additional money or get a full refund along with the last date of your trial period in writing.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I ordered my save-the-dates as a post card and they turned out absolutely beautifully. The picture was very clear, it was easy to read, and the design was beautiful. My fiancé and I really liked that we could have a message to our guests on the back so we didn't have to send any extra cards with where to book the hotel rooms, etc. I would definitely recommend this product and design to anyone else :)"
"These cards are very sturdy and we loved the ticket cut. For some reason I was expecting the aloe color to be a little bit brighter, but we still like them."
"Our save the dates came out wonderful and earlier than expected. The quality of service is above some other websites who I ordered samples from."
"We received this product within two days after ordering, and the finished product was great! We got so many compliments on our save the date cards- our photographer (she took the photos we used) has even added it to her ad promos! Could not have turned out better :) Thank you Wedding Paper Divas!"
"My cards came very fast! I was so suprised at how professional their delivery was. It came in a big box all my cards were perfect and that goes for My envelopes too. Everyone that had received them has called me saying how much they loved our save the dates and raved about the quality of the card. We are deffinetly using wedding paper divas for programs and our invitations!"

Dancing While Sleepy
I notice my energy starting to diminish again as I approach my 7th month of pregnancy and the 3rd trimester. Yesterday, I took a glucose tolerance test. It's a test women between 24 and 28 weeks of pregnancy are encouraged to take, to check for gestational diabetes.
The drink actually tasted pretty good! I got the fruit punch flavor. The woman helping me out said she's never seen anyone down the drink like I did! Ha! While I was sitting in the waiting room, I fell into a deep sleep, feet up and all! I woke up to a nurse tapping my shoulder saying, "Uh, ma'am, you can't sleep here." How embarrasing. The past several days, I've probably taken about 3 naps each day!
Working out has also been extremely difficult. I'm constantly yawning in cycling class and I can barely keep up with the instructor. I've also caught myself zoning out in class and closing my eyes once in awhile.
Fortunately at work, the morning crew keeps me on my toes. Here's a silly behind the scenes look at Ron and me dancing right after our newscast on Monday. Ron has some moves! :)
Happy Wednesday friends! Hope you're having a great week.

June 17 (Bloomberg) -- Blackstone Group LP, the world's largest private-equity firm, may co-invest in a new fund being set up by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, chairman and chief executive Stephen Schwarzman said.
"I think we have an open mind in terms of looking at that vehicle," Schwarzman said in an interview at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum today. Blackstone has yet to invest in Russia.
Medvedev is promoting the fund as a way to spur foreign investment into Russia, diversifying the economy away from a reliance on revenue from oil, gas and metal exports. Representatives from Blackstone, Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, and others from the U.S., Europe, Asia and the Middle East, came to Russia to discuss the fund in May.
"In this type of market, a good local partner is essential," Schwarzman said. He declined to say whether Blackstone is talking to Russian companies. Private-equity rival TPG Capital has invested with VTB Capital, the investment- banking arm of Russia's second-biggest lender, in a local supermarket chain.
It is "more logical" for companies to invest in the consumer sector because risks associated with commodities industries are "relatively high," he said.
Should Blackstone decide to invest in Russia, Schwarzman said the allocation would come from an existing fund rather than a new country fund.
Blackstone won't participate in a share sale by OAO Sberbank, Russia's biggest lender, later this year, he said. "We don't do those sort of deals."

Hardacre Farm LLC's Pomeroys Pistol sat off the early
speed before reeling in pacesetters Maple Forest and Honey Chile to capture the
$75,000 Just Smashing Stakes as Zero Rate Policy dominated his five rivals in
the $75,000 Rumson Stakes at Monmouth Park on Saturday.
Ridden by Chris DeCarlo, Pomeroy's Pistol covered the six
furlongs over a fast main track in 1:09 flat and paid $5.80, $3.20 and $2.20 in
the field of five 3-year-old fillies. Maple Forest
finished 4 ½ lengths behind the winner and paid $3.20 and $2.20. The exacta returned $20.80. It was another 4 ½ lengths back to Honey Chile, the
post-time favorite, who paid $2.10 to show.
"There were some nice horses in there," said winning
trainer Amy Tarrant, who also owns Hardacre Farm. "I'm always happy when she shows what she's
got. I did expect this today. She's a stone-cold sprinter. Chris (jockey DeCarlo) did a great job riding
her and when it was time to go she did what she needed to do."
Earlier this year, Pomeroys Pistol captured the Grade 2
Forward Gal at Gulfstream Park. She now
sports a lifetime record of 3-1-2 from eight starts and earnings of $260,178.
Owned by Klaravich Stables and W. H. Lawrence, Zero Rate
Policy covered the six furlongs over a fast main track in a snappy 1:08 4/5 and
returned $3.80, $2.60 and $2.20 as the odds-on choice in the Rumson. It was nearly five lengths back to Razmataz,
who completed the $8.20 exacta and paid $3 and $2.60. Brother in Arms was another neck back in
third, good for a $4.20 show mutuel.
"He's something special," said winning rider Carlos H.
Marquez Jr. "He's push button. I just let him roll out of the gate and when
it's time to go, he does the rest. He's
really fast and continues to mature with each race."
Zero Rate Policy, trained by Terri Pompay, sports a record
of 3-1-0 from four starts. The
3-year-old gelding by Trippi from the Unbridled's Song mare Untitled Song has
now earned $124,184.

First Outing with 'The Brick' (early post-WWII Argus C3)
First test roll of my father-in-law's ca. 1946-47 Argus C3 Brick. It needs a major cleaning; lots of dust and the range-finder dials need a drop or two of oil. Seems to be in acceptable working order, though. Happily, any 'bad' pictures were due to my playing with the aperture settings in low-light conditions on 100 iso film. The sprocket light-leaks on some shots are probably due to a film-loading issue (I didn't hold down the film release at first, so some sprockets ripped as I started to advance the film); they went away after half the roll. The counter mechanism will take some getting used to. The range-finder is surprisingly not too out of alignment, but I'll adjust it anyhow when we take it apart to clean. Overall, this is a fantastic camera, and I can't wait to become better acquainted. Odd note: More strangers commented on this camera as we were walking around with it than any other I've used! Home-processed black and white roll #12 (developer: Rodinal).This photo was shot on film. Taken by bridgetj with an Argus C3 loaded with Kentmere Black and White 100 film in Toronto, Canada. These tags describe this photo: outdoors, argus-c3, b&w, toronto, home-processed, city, urban, 35mm, and street. Date: 2012-04-14. Time: Afternoon.

that is unlikely, it is easy to write something nice or click on the heart, but is it real? the problem is that you don't FEEL appreciated in real life and every time you do a good job someone gives you another to do, and the only time you get any praise for the last job is because the next one is even harder.

i find that really hard to believe...

That is certainly your own right to feel so, despite what's really true in reality.

After spending all of about five minutes in perfect health and wellness following her recent cold, the lovely Jayna developed croup last night, which meant I had to take another sick day to care for her while Wonder Woman was at work. Awesome.
I took her to the doc around midday, and because of her cough, I was instructed to bring her in not through the front entrance, but through the back entrance, at which point I was to use the courtesy phone to call the reception desk and notify them that we were waiting in the quarantined airlock area, doing our best not to infect the masses.
I did as I was told, and after about 10 minutes of waiting in purgatory, a nurse wearing a face mask came to retrieve us and tried to get Jayna to put on a face mask, as well. Jayna responded by saying, "Not on your life, bitch!" At least, that's what she might as well have said, so the clearly annoyed Nurse Huffypants allowed the 39-pound peanut to break protocol and head into the doc's office unmasked. Four years old and already a total rebel.
Eventually, our pediatrician came in to check her out, and not once during the entire exam did she cough, which prompted me to ask the doc if he could just hang out with us all day, since apparently his presence is a natural cough suppressant. He wasn't up for that, so he instead sent in a nurse with a small dose of strawberry-flavored syrup that contained a steroid designed to reduce the croup-induced inflammation of her vocal cords and adjacent areas. Jayna responded to the presentation of this elixir with a hardy "Not on your life, bitch!" At least, that's what she might as well have said, so the clearly annoyed Nurse Huffypants II acquiesced when I asked her to leave us so that I could coax Jayna into taking it, which I eventually did … sort of.
I say "sort of" because she somehow pulled off a magic trick whereby she drank the medicine, and then drank a little shot of water that I placed in the medicine cup, and then I turned my head for a moment, and when I turned back, there was a big drop of bright red strawberry syrup clinging to her bottom lip, and a massive drizzle of the stuff staining the front of her shirt (visible adjacent to her right upper arm). I have no idea how she accomplished this.
Ironically, the ordeal of getting her to take the medicine resulted in much crying and coughing, which seemed rather counter-intuitive.
Once I had mopped her up and calmed her down, we headed over to the nearby Dunkin Donuts, because I like to make sure the kids eat healthy when they're sick. She wolfed down three glazed Munchkins and drank a whopping two or three sips of orange juice, and that was just fine with me, because, with the yucky taste of the medicine defeated and her tummy now relatively full, the only thing left for her to do was fall asleep during the ride home … which, thankfully, she did.
Wonder Woman returned from work a short while later, and I have since spent many hours setting up the new MacBook Pro and monitor that my employer sent to replace my deceased iMac.
Point being: that awesome blog entry I was planning to write today? Yeah, that didn't happen. Instead, you get a sleep-deprived me describing yet another challenging day in suburbia. And with that, I bid you good night.
