Bailing in Seattle

Sorry I haven't updated in over a week, it's just that I haven't been able to drag myself away from my talk-radio pundits, debate commentary and stock market news. What with the sky falling and all, I simply haven't had time to string two sentences together about my sweet ba-boo. I just want to know one thing. How it is that if I managed my personal finances the way Wall Street & Washington has done, I'd have to go directly to jail and not pass go and they...don't?? Nevermind, I feel my blood pressure rising.

I still don't have a video made. I did charge up the camcorder battery. Tomorrow I'll probably figure out how to put the tape into the recorder. By November we should have the thing uploaded.

Annie had a good week at school, but she got a weird boo-boo on her leg--a hematoma actually--so I took her down to the doctor to have it checked out. The doctor ordered some blood work done, and it turns out Annie's a bit anemic, so I'm going to give her some iron for awhile and while I have the bottle open, I might take some myself. The current theory is that maybe her seizure meds are contributing to her blood issues, which is not unheard of, and so we'll recheck her labs in a month.

Meanwhile, she's perfecting her "No" expression--sometimes it's no-lo-no-lo, and sometimes it's NO through gritted teeth, and sometimes it's no in a song. I haven't heard "yes" yet. Or MOMMY.
