My visit with the family - today may be the toughest
It looked like today would have been smooth sailing. I was suppose to go to my sister's place and help her put together new beds for the girls.

She called this morning - she's sick and the girls are sick. I won't be going over there... :p

this means a day of being subjected to rush limbaugh radio... :scared:

I go home tomorrow... can't wait

3. slight reprieve
have to go to computer store with my mom, buy a new scanner and couple of other computer accessories - which means most of my afternoon will have me playing computer geek and safe from having to hear oxy-rush-ramblings and others of his ilk

plus my dad has some old family documents (immigration/citizenship papers etc.) he wants scanned to have a digital copy on hand

5. Rush will probably be off
And if he is on or has a substitute just laugh hysterically at whatever he says. Just keep saying "this guy is a riot, "I never knew that rush was such a commedienne, what an entertainer he is, no wonder he is so popular"

The countdown is on. Good for you.

7. You can hide an AM Radio Transmitter in the house tuned to Rush's frequency
She'll never be able to listen to him in the house again.
