For the past several nights, I haven't been sleeping well, but I'd been carrying on regardless hoping to just power through the crud that I was fairly sure to be responsible.

That kinda failed last night when I went from "waking up every few hours but being able to go back to sleep" to "waking up every few hours and needing to cough crap out of my lungs."

After about 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep from 7-11 this morning, I actually do feel a lot better, if heavily congested. I suspect a trip to CVS will occur in the near future.

Because a few people are asking: Not terribly bothered by the Ohio and Texas results...if you look at it, we went into our Primaries with Obama up by over 110 delegates.

After the primaries, Obama is....still leading by 110 delegates. And if the Texas caucuses come out as predicted, it might actually increase to 120.

Hilary's "Ressurection" (according to the AP), was nothing more than forcing a stalemate. I suspect that if the DNC is serious about avoiding a brokered convention, they're going to start leaning on superdelegates to switch over to Obama. That's the only thing propping Clinton up right now, and if she starts losing more of them, I suspect she'll start to buckle.

*smile* That's my general plan.

I don't think the DNC wants a brokered convention because it will get in the way of the sales pitch, and some things might go wrong. However, I have been thinking one possible for a long time because no candidate at that level will concede to avoid a brokered convention, after all they're running to win. And it may work in their favor, as that convention will be worth watching. The Republican convention will be another infomercial and so something to avoid.

Frankly, I'd have stuck to the Jackets game. Yeah they lost but from what I saw they outplayed Calgary except for their goalie, who pretty much won that game by himself. Kiprisoff (sp) earned that shutout.

I liked the way the played and hung together, so found the silver lining.

I was actually asleep before the game started - or trying to sleep anyhow. :/

I really do like the way they've been playing since the deadline. I don't know if the post-season is going to happen, but I think there's been some serious groundbreaking made.

Agreed. If Howson can re-sign and obtain the right people next year might a LOT of fun. They're a hockey team now, one deserving of respect.

I just hope we can beat it out of them.

Did I mishear at work, or did Hillary offer to let Obama run with her? I was working so only half paying attention.

But I did that classic cleaning my ear and going "Do what?" and thinking I couldn't have heard that right. I mean... she's losing, and offering to let him be her running mate?

Woman doesn't lack for brass, I'll give her that.

Plus, part of it is the Piranha principle. If she shows any signs of wavering or backing down, the piranhas will eat her.
