So, yesterday was a wonderful day. It started out with me feeling pretty crappy, toddled along through a 9½ hour day where I was so busy, I didn’t get a chance to take a break (let alone get lunch), which had my foot more or less on fire by quittin’ time, at which point I had to go stare at a dead old lady whom I’d never seen before, before finally getting back home. Things aren’t much better this morning, since nobody bothered to get coffee ready, and I don’t feel like doing it now. On the bright side, it’s a dress down day where we’re allowed to wear our orange. This is what passes for a big thrill in the corporate world, I guess.
Health care reform is heading back to the House, as Republicans found something or other wrong with the reconciliation bill. Maybe they think they’ll be able to intimidate House Democrats into voting against it, what with all the death threats they’ve been getting. Look for Republicans falling all over themselves denying any responsibility when somebody gets shot. Cowards.
I’d kinda hoped I wouldn’t have to hear about this shit once it passed, but it seems there’s no end in sight.
All that, and no caffeine? It’s gonna be a long, long day.
effin A!

In the past five years, as the phenomenon known as colony-collapse disorder has spread across the United States and Europe, causing the disappearance of whole colonies of domesticated honeybees, many people have come to fear that our food supply is in peril. The news on Wednesday that a Department of Agriculture survey found that American honeybees had died in great numbers this winter can only add to such fears.
The truth, fortunately, is not nearly so dire. But it is more complicated.
