I'm back from a little time off feeling rested and ready to head into February book. I had 435 emails to get through, of which I only needed to look at, oh... about 20. Is it that way for you, too?! Sheesh!!

So, since I'm fresh back from Vay-K (vacation) and I was bogged down with emails, a sweeps shoot, and a consultant meeting.. I don't have much time to blog today. But I can lean on my pal McGorge Scott to save me.

I spent this weekend with a box of Kleenex (the kind with lotion) and nursed a fever and sore throat. Good times. I'm on the mend, but still sound stuffy today at work. I wonder if you can tell??

My throat is killing me!! And I'm trying to decide if it's because of the stagnant air or if I might be (gasp) actually getting sick. I have ailments that keep me from work from time to time, but rarely rarely does the cold or flu grab me. I think it's because I wash my hands a lot.. no kidding. I think it makes a difference.

Anyway, before I go home to chill out on the couch.. here is that link to the state's full draft report on ...

So, what did you think of Wednesday's 5pm story on early puberty for girls. Wow, eh? And it's something researchers have tracked for a while now, although I did find it interesting that the age of puberty has dropped 3 years on average in the past 200 years.

And this is an excellent backgrounder on that obesity drug I mentioned (you know how I love my WebMD): >> Continue reading:
