I'm sick - head cold. cough that attacks in the night. general bleh.
Declan has both an ear and an eye infection. Bacterial in both cases. Running fever. He's on antibiotics as of today.
Daddy slammed the rear door of the jetta wagon onto his thumb. It's nasty.
Mika hacks like she smokes 3 packs a day and washes each cig down with straight irish. Otherwise she seems just fine.

Mika made a dr.'s head reflector at school today and refused to take it off when I picked her up this afternoon. She was *thrilled* that there were two patients for Doctor Mika waiting in the car. All the staff at the centre play it up and were referring to her as Doctor Mika as well. Like a fool, Daddy actually let Mika inspect his thumb. She poked, prodded, and declared that there was nothing she could do. Aside from adding to his agonizing pain by poking and prodding him. Doctor Mika seconded the opinion of Dr. Wong with respect to Declan's diagnosis and treatment.
