Tuesday Morning

Bill is finally, FINALLY, feeling halfway decent again, and of course this is the week he goes in for the Slam-a-thon chemicals on Thursday and Friday.

He said that yesterday at school, he was able to walk from his car to his office without stopping to catch his breath.

He still looks yellow, and that upsets him, but it's not a bright yellow--more like a light watercolor wash of faded sunflower.

Meanwhile, it's been snowing here, with ice and fog. Lovely!

AND last night the news announced that radioactive iodine from Japan has been found in Florida water, and in North and South Carolina! They're sure it's from Japan because it's half-life is 8 days and only Japanese iodine could fit that timeline. Don't ask me to explain that. haha

ALSO, in case you're not bummed out for the day, yet, scientists have found 42 areas in the U.S. where strange illnesses are extremely concentrated. One of them was in North Carolina--Camp LeJeune--an amazingly high number of cases of male breast cancer. You should look at the map. California is especially loaded with these hot spots of weird diseases.

WHAT?!

Okay. I'd better stop typing and come back when I can be nice.

Oh, wait. I came across a funny quote yesterday, which will end this on a better note. (If you're an atheist, probably just skip this one): "Quit telling God about those big problems, and start telling those problems about your big God."

Dear Radioactive Iodine: There's this Guy I know? And He's pretty BIG, and He is gonna give you WHAT FOR if you set up shop in my thyroid gland!"

Love to all!
