what's getting me thinking

9:46 AM

two things in particular this morning. actually, three. from least to most:

trouble in paradise: my co-worker's love affair that started last saturday, as previously posted, appears to be getting on her nerves a bit as he has already moved in and has some strange habits, according to her. among them: he doesn't eat breakfast and eats tofu champuru every single night for dinner, without rice (shock!). he doesn't like to sleep "collé", as we say in french, meaning 'stuck together'. personally i don't blame him in the 33 degree heat that we are now experiencing.

"we all let her die": on his blog, my net buddy smellydog wrote about a story that struck a cord within me. its about a 14-year old canadian girl who suffered from chest pains and other symptoms for four years, going from doctor to doctor until she finally died of the very rare pulmonary hypertension recently. it's a well-written article that could teach you a thing or two about your health, your kids', your morals and irony. ah, and also a bit about the canadian healthcare system. (so much for socialism.)

all for now..
