Headline from Reuters:
House Republicans elect Boehner as leader.

Right. Like one in the White House isn't enough.

I tried sleeping some more, and now I hurt so bad I can barely stand up. WTF! Taking an assload of tylenol now, and hopefully it'll let me gte a little work done.

Had trouble getting to sleep, though once there I had fascinating dreams of being on a big ship with a figurehead. I don't recall where we were going, but I remember I was about as excited about that as I was about being on the ship at all.
