migraines & dumb blond news anchors
This past week has been no end of health problems. First my endo, then my back, and now a migraine. I stayed home from work yesterday and today to try to sleep it off. I can't take regular medications like Immitrex because of my high blood pressure and heart problems, so when I get a migraine my general treatment options are to curse a lot and sleep *lol* It's subsiding, however. They generally only last a few days. My husband is still alive, though yesterday when he flipped the very bright bathroom light on while I was soaking in the tub, I almost killed him.
Today it is actually decent enough outside to turn the A/C off and open some windows. After two solid months of air conditioning in the car, at work and at home, I needed some un-conditioned air. I've never been one of those people who lives for the summer months. Hot weather is my mortal enemy.. well, hot weather and math ;)
Lastnight on the news, they were running a story about how Robin Williams was here in Oregon for detox. He checked himself into some little clinic in eastern Oregon and has been there since mid-July. The reporter was all excited and I'm sitting there thinking, 1)this isn't news if he's been here for a month.. are you seriously proud that it took you that long to find out? and 2)there was no public announcement, no accident while driving drunk, no dramatic outcry about his situation.. he just quietly checked himself into a treatment program because he felt it was the right thing to do, and the news anchor is making stupid comments like, "I wonder why he would choose this hospital as opposed to all the others, this one is so remote and out of his way, blah, blah, blah" and I'm thinking, you dumb blond bimbo, the fact that this is a remote location is probably the reason he picked it.. he wants to be left alone! Grr.. I'm not usually 'up' on all the celebrity news, etc., nor do I really care to be, but this just pissed me off. Leave the guy alone. If he wanted to be on the evening news, he'd have cursed out a minority on national television like Mel Gibson. (Not that I'm taking sides on that one, either.. I like Mel, too). It's that look the reporters get on their faces when they're airing someone else's dirty laundry, like they're almost salivating. I'd like to go on there and talk about her private life, the last time she had sex with her husband, can he still get it up, how are the kids doing in school, etc.. I'm a relatively private person myself, so when I see this sort of thing it just drives me batty.
