Anyone have a good step-down program for election junkies?

Mike is doing well with his election-coverage withdrawal. Now if he could just kick that CNBC addiction...

I watched mostly NBC and MSNBC last night but definitely missed Tim Russert. Athough his son was reporting from Bloomington, Indiana (our old stomping grounds) so that was cool.

I thought I'd post a little Georgie update as well - he is 17 months old now. The kid is a human garbage disposal. He eats so much, and he is still so little. He literally eats more than Hank. There is no off-switch. On Saturday night we at a Mexican restaurant and he ate chips and salsa, dipped his Cheerios in salsa, ate his kids' meal of a quesadilla, rice, and refried beans, then poached some chicken and taco salad off our plates. We all just watch him in awe. I stopped him after the taco salad because I was afraid his stomach was going to explode or something. Seriously.

He is at the point now where I can no longer easily list all of his words, and he's starting to string some of them together such as "go bye bye," and "eat more" (go figure). This is exciting for us since Hank did not really start saying much until after he was 2 years old.

Got my flu shot today, hopefully this shot is a better match for this year's flu strain so we can avoid the Great Flu Fiasco from last winter.

Add to list of things to pack for DisneyWorld: extra cash to buy alcoholic beverages for passengers near us on plane. Plus some sort of black market, FDA-rejected medication for me that will knock me out and make me think I am at a spa or on a beach somewhere, instead of trapped in a flying tin can with a bunch of germy strangers and my own squirmy 4 year old, always-hungry 17-month old, and clausterphobic-almost-has-panic-attacks-on-planes husband.
