Easily spoiled

I've spent the morning revising my template colors to something not quite as busy.  I like the earthy tones, and I softened the background somewhat.  Not quite the color of green I wanted for the title bar; I'll keep searching for something closer to sage.  It's definitely a change from the original. 

Another sick day today...I do feel much better, though.  Just put on a pot of homemade vegetable beef soup (mmmm), and realized it was 2:00 PM and I was still in my flannel pj's.  I'm spoiled now.  Been home too long.  Sleeping in later than usual; no alarm clock; phone unplugged.....what a luxury!  I'm already dreading going back to the office Monday. 

Think we'll rent a movie tonight.  Scott chose "Brotherhood of the Wolf" - a foreign flick with subtitles (joy).  I did take the time to read the reviews - sounds interesting.  I'll turn in my book report tomorrow  :)

Viagra for Women?

A female version of Viagra, the drug that transformed the sex lives of millions of men, could soon be developed.

It was previously thought that the little blue pill, which has been widely used by men all over the world since 1998, would do little, if taken by women, to improve their enjoyment of sex.

But latest tests have suggested that more than half the women given Viagra reported heightened satisfaction during sex.

ACLU Acts Against Patriot Act

The American Civil Liberties Union rolled out a national campaign Wednesday to challenge government anti-terror policies that the group deems undemocratic.

Dubbed Keep America Safe and Free, the multimillion-dollar effort was announced by the ACLU at a Washington press conference that highlighted accounts from several peace activists who claimed they'd been singled out by authorities because of their political views.

VH1 Under Fire for Jailhouse Rock

NEW YORK — Christopher Bissey murdered teenagers Mary Orlando and Jennifer Grider in 1995. And now he's about to have his television debut on VH1's new series, Music Behind Bars.

I listened to the mother of one of the girls on O'Reilly the other night, and I just cannot imagine how this must make her feel.  This "documentary" is in extremely poor taste, and VH1 should be ashamed.
