rant from my sick bed

I need to get this off my gianormous chest: that guy who got on the 7 flights knowing full well that he has drug resistant TB is a DOUCHE BAG. What the fuck is your problem Andrew Speaker, 31, lawyer from Atlanta, GA that you had to get on not one, not 2, but 7 goddamn flights and make all those people potentially very very sick??? I feel like shit with my annual summer cold (seriously I have no idea why I get sick in the summer) and I read this story and I think oh my god, was I on a plane with this guy, then remembering that I haven't left the state in a few months I popped a few more Nyquil Gel Caps and fell in to a dreamless sleep.

But wait! There's more! Turns out that Andrew Speaker, 31, lawyer from Atlanta, GA has a relative that works with the Center for Infectious Diseases! And not a distant relative, his father-in-law. What does he work on specifically you ask? He is a microbiologist who has conducted research on tuberculosis.

Again, Andrew Speaker, I ask WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU DOING???

BART vs CTA

Sam my dear I have been thinking of you. Here in Chi-town we have a subpar transportation system and we often blissfully think of other cities & their ease of transportation. Today my favorite CTA blog talked about how awesome BART and MUNI are and I couldn't help remember your ditty a few moths ago.

But here, I'll let you burst the bubble of those of us here wishing we lived in SF:

In honor of Memorial Day. . .

Wingal thinks my (and Larry's) nephew is hot & that I should post this picture. Because in the words of Wingal, "today we not only honor our troops, but we honor hotness as well."

Pug Thief!

The nephew stole Fezziwig!! For a whole week! WTF?

Tales from PSSWR, pt. 3

Wingal, having had too much to drink the day before, was struggling with her Menards Disease when we woke up on Thursday. Jenny took off to the pharmacy to get her the medication she needed. Luckily, the pharmacist was well stocked with the medicine she needed.

Something to live by. . .

Tales from Congress

As Keith, Laura, and Larry marched to the exhibit hall, they hoped for great victory. Though secretly, Laura also hoped to find some baby powder because her armor was starting to chafe.

Tales from PSSWR, pt. 2

On Wednesday, Al finally arrived. And we were all really excited, except for the Ibex. He had been looking forward to some quality time with Laura. But Al had always carried a torch for him. Not because they were once lovers, she was just a big fan of Persian cooking. Especially Ibex kebabs.

Tales from PSSWR

On Tuesday, we all woke up to find Jenny's roommate roaming around outside, looking for berries.

"hey, Urs, is Jenny up yet?" asked Laura.

*burp* "Jenny? Nope haven't seen her since last night. Said she wanted to take a walk along the lake..."
