Alien abduction. No, really.

I was really into the paranormal as a child (still am, though more ghosts now than UFOs), and when I was in fifth grade, I watched this made for TV movie that was supposedly based on the true stories of two women who experienced alien abduction. It scared the crap out of me and a classmate who saw the same movie. We were convinced - convinced - we were going to be snatched up by the mothership and forced to undergo all sorts of unsavory experiments, including possibly being impregnated with hybrid alien fetuses, which just goes to show you how naive we were. If we had known about anal probing, we probably would have been scared of that too.

These days I do believe in the possibility of life out there, and maybe we have had visitors from some galaxy far, far away, but if that's true, the fact that they haven't made themselves known to us speaks volumes about us I think.

I think it's now well established that I was a silly child. Very silly.

Also, I can't be the only one around here who remembers the Fox show Sightings, can I?

1) Let There Be Love was an album of songs recorded by Joni James as airchecks[1], released by Jasmine Records on March 1, 1993.

2) Tony Romeo (born December 25, 1939, died June 23, 1995, New York) was an American songwriter.[1] He is famous for writing the No.1 hit "I Think I Love You" by The Partridge Family as well as many other hit records, mostly during the 1960s and 1970s.

3) The first USS Fairfield was a sloop-of-war in the United States Navy. Fairfield was launched 28 June 1828 by New York Navy Yard; and first put to sea 20 August 1828, Commander Foxhall A. Parker in command.

4) The Tyria (Greek: Τύρια) is a river in the western part of the Ioannina Prefecture in west-central Epirus, Greece not far from the Thesprotia prefectural boundary. It is a left tributary of the Thyamis.

After a tragic recording studio accident, government agents swooped in and carted away the sole survivor: a civilain now only known by her codename Let There Be Love. Fueled by a desire to possess every Tony Romero song ever created, she sails around the world in the fully-armed USS Fairfield with her side-kick (codename: So What Am I So Afraid Of). Together they seek out the evil Tyria before it can flood the world's music venues and erase every romantic ballad ever sung.

Le Argh!

Technically, - if I remember my French correctly - that should be L'Argh, but I think it sounds better to say Le Argh. Not that "The Argh" really means anything anyway.

The reason for the "Argh!" is that our mental health day has turned into a sick day. Kiddo has started running a low grade fever accompanied by a runny nose. He's acting pretty okay if a little lethargic, though he says he feels sick. We have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning at around 9:30 (he didn't start running a fever until after five o'clock, naturally). I should have known there was something more wrong with him other than just plain being worn out from doing too much stuff.

I swear this week has turned into a big mess. Oh well, at least we can get a doctor's excuse for his absences.

ETA: Kiddo's low-grade fever is gone. He's acting better, though his nose is runny and stuffy, plus he's been coughing a little (sounds like he's coughing due to sinus drainage). Looks like he might be going to school after all so long as he remains fever-free overnight and tomorrow morning.
