A friend of mine is prescribing medicine without a license; I hope this at least does something .. mood-enhancing. I could use a good bout of the giggles, without any embarassing drool.

GrrlScientist is an evolutionary biologist, ornithologist, aviculturist, birder and freelance science and nature writer. A native of the Pacific Northwest, she relocated from Seattle to NYC with her parrots after earning a BS in Microbiology (emphasis in Virology) and PhD in Zoology (Ornithology) from the University of Washington. In NYC, she was the Chapman Postdoctoral Fellow at the American Museum of Natural History for two years, pursuing part of her "dream" research project by reconstructing a molecular phylogeny of the parrots of the South Pacific islands. GrrlScientist and her five parrots are currently relocating to Germany, where she will continue writing her blog while also writing a book and learning German. (Meanwhile, her parrots will continue to nibble on her extensive personal library.)

Ah yes. A good dose of vitamin F in the morning, and it makes the day so much better.

orac is a doctor (in the true sense of the word). i think we need to hit him up for some chemical assistance! hopefully, it will be free-of-charge to unemployables.
