Happy Saturday everyone!  
Soo...I WAS going to try to do Nanowrimo this year, gawd knows I have a 100 brilliant ideas clogging my brain, I had a great little guy political rebellion idea for my novel... but then I heard about "AEDM"( Art Every Day Month)... and that seemed like a better fit for my current lack of energy and limited focus, so Nanowrimo waits till next year because I am more likely to actually accomplish a successful finish in signing up for AEDM.

Those who have been emailing me asking where my art is will be thrilled with this decision I am sure... so it starts tomorrow and goes the whole month of November...art in the making on a more regular basis and blogged about, yay! Okay so some of it might be journal pages.... but art is art and fitting it into everyday is a good thing that I do not seem to be accomplishing on my own.

I am getting increasingly amused by the H1N1 flu shot promos... now they are claiming that if pregnant women get the shot it will also prevent premature birth, it adds birth weight to unborn babies, and protects babies for 6 months after birth... OMG it's for the children"/babies" rush out and get it fast! Hell if they claimed it also made you lose 20 pounds of weight without effort or dieting in as little as 30 days there would be fist fights over these damn shots. When are people going to figure out something is fishy in all this hype over a shot for a flu most doctors say is much milder than they were told to expect? Never mind the fact there have been no real clinical trials, at least not reliable ones... no study done of long lasting side effects or adverse reactions, or the safety of the shots... you have been assimilated...go get one now, drag your children down and line them up. I am still opting for D3, C, blueberry juice and a healthy diet, avoiding crowds whenever I can (only because people are stupid enough to think the world will end if they do not go out fully infected).

Please don't forget to sing "Happy Birthday To You" while washing your hands! Only then will your assimilation be complete! (I actually heard a woman doing this in a public bathroom yesterday, the poor little drone) ROFLMAO.... gawd the dumb things people will do on the say so of politicians and the nightly news continues to amuse me day after day.

More from Vi's later, taking my gogo gadget with me...

I did the nasal for Derek, since I am asthmatic and that is an underlying complication. We don't know what his lungs are like yet, and we know how bad mine would be.

The shot is the same as other flu shots, just with one strain, not three. Everything else is the same, so I am not sure what other testing is needed. And the nasal method has been done for about ten years now.

There sure is a lot of stupid info out there, though, that is for sure. But we are hardly assimilated for our choice.

The shots are a very personal choice I agree, one we have personally decided to say no to. Still, singing happy birthday during hand washing is a sure sign of assimilation... and the far reaching hype attaching it's self to the get the shot sales pitch is getting down right ridiculous.

Oh, is that to "measure" how long you wash? *snicker*

Yeah, it is to measure how long you are suppose to wash. Personally I think I would prefer to recite a limerick... the more offensive the better....
