I’m down to 20mg of Prednisone a day (one pill) and I can say that it has made a huge difference.  I arrive at work breathing only slightly harder than when I left my car.  I can take three flights of stairs before I breathe hard, and I catch my breath much easier.  I have energy to work on the house, and other things (hoo-wah).

Next step is CT and a doctor’s visit in early December.  I still haven’t recieved any updates on the Valley Fever test.  I hate to say I want to have a fungal infection, but I want to have a fungal infection.  If I have Valley Fever, it means my birds can stay.

I didn’t like Palin. I thought she was a dumb (six colleges for a journalism degree), narrow-minded, partisan bimbo who was more like George W. with regards to cronyism than anyone wanted to admit.

However, she doesn’t deserve to be torn down in the media like this by her own party. It was these same “advisors” that picked her, and now they should also have to suffer the fallout from that decision. Reap what you sow, fellas. Reap what you sow.

What bothers me most are the Republicans who wanted Palin as President. From Glenn Beck’s radio show yesterday:

I mean, I have to tell you if I heard once, I heard 1,000 times from people, and I never said this, never said this on the air because you just don’t say these things, but I heard a million times from people, “I’m going to vote for John McCain and, you know, I mean, he’s old. Maybe we get Sarah Palin in the first term.” You know what I mean?

Being a registered Republican, people like this in my party scare the crap out of me.
