Dave, place your forehead on the end of a bat. The other end of the bat rests on the floor. Now make 5 full rotation around the bat without lifting your forehead away.

Just make sure you have witnesses with cameras.

Oh, I forgot to include the following:

I had a math teacher who had ear infections routinely at least once a year, so I know what it's like even though I haven't experienced it myself. He had it for two months, so hang in there, sometimes it can take awhile.

Hell, a double ear infection, you might not recover for a long time.

Have you played Resident Evil 5 yet? I'm asking because of the RE comment. It's really a great game.

Thanks Dave for your update on...you. Get better...too many failures in Asura :P Tell your daughter to eat some Captain Crunch, every kid gets better from that stuff.

@Alasia:

I understand what you're trying to say, and believe me I took it into consideration when writing my comment. But, to my way of thinking at least, your point about both parents needing to work to "make ends meet" fails on one pretty important point: daycare is freakin' EXPENSIVE.

Now, admittedly I can't speak for the situation in other states, but here in Anchorage (yes, Alaska) daycare facilities AVERAGE at $500 a week for their services. The average full-time worker's net pay is $2,000 a month. The math is pretty easy here: $2,000 pay minus $2,000 child care fees equals $0. This doesn't even take other expenses like maintaining a second vehicle in an economy where pay is down and costs are rising into consideration.

So what, exactly, is gained by having two full-time working parents and a child (or multiple children) in daycare?

This was exactly the line of thinking that my wife and I followed when making the decision to have one parent (me, because I made less anyhow) at home with our daughter - at least until she's old enough for school.

Yes, I understand that different families in different places and situations face different circumstances. But I also think that if people would take the time to consider things like how much of that second paycheck would go to pay for daycare that truly is very expensive, and even what kind of benefits there are to having a parent or other family member who cares about the child at home to raise them instead of a stranger with multiple children to look after in a daycare setting, the decision to stay home might not be so difficult.

And then we might have fewer grim incidents like this one, this one, or this one.

2009-03-18T10:04:00.000-07:00

Don't send your child to daycare.

They become little monsters that don't want their mommies, but want their papa, which is actually another kid.

I'm a little monster, and fuckin' proud of it.

But i'm human, and you let that girl of yours grow in daycare, your entire family will be fucked upside down so bad you won't even know the difference from milk powder and drugs.

Well, not that you knew in the first place....

Good luck [GM] Dave.
Hopefully you don't get the pills that cause heart disease, liver problems and rectal seapage.

2009-03-18T08:30:00.000-07:00

Earaches are really making a comeback. My wife had a TERRIBLE one a week ago. I think there must be an especially earache-causing cold strain. (which means viral)

Sorry man. Hey, maybe I'm wrong.

2009-03-18T05:46:00.000-07:00

oh [GM]Dave... just be happy that at this point in her life, the only disease she's spreading is ear infections. Makes you look forward to her late teens doesn't it?

I recently had the same problem. Well you should not die from it but enjoy the long pain...

The best is when you begin to lose hearing capability.

But it can be fun sometimes. Especially when you're at work and don't want to do something. "What did you say ? I don't hear you, sorry".

But believe it or not... My boss know how to use a pencil and a paper. Damn.

2009-03-18T01:31:00.000-07:00

Sticking with the House analogy, if antibiotics don't work then it's probably a viral infection. The downside is you're probably going to have a seizure twice in the next few days.

On the upside: no having to deal with FFXI retards.

2009-03-18T00:31:00.000-07:00

I feel for you. When I was younger, I used to get ear infections all the freaking time. If a winter went by and I didn't get at least three or four of them, something was wrong. I got some magical tubes put into my ears that caused them to go away for about 20 years.

Now I think I'm starting to get another ear infection...

2009-03-17T23:23:00.000-07:00

I wouldn't rule out the anal leaking just yet. Many antibiotics can cause diarrhea after a few days treatment.

Just another ray of sunshine to brighten your day.

@Taylor-MadeAK

Sometimes man, in this economy.. it's just not a possibility. In case you haven't noticed, for most families...BOTH parents have to work to be able to make ends meet.

[GM]Dave... my sympathies. My daughters are 14 and 16 .. The good news? They STILL bring home very virus or bacteria known to humankind.

2009-03-17T22:52:00.000-07:00

Reason #1 not to send your kid to daycare: this post.

Reason #2: Why would you want to pay good money to people who want to stick your kid in a room with other kids...and then ignore them? Oh, I know...at the really HIGH CLASS daycare facilities, they shake things up a little bit by sending all the kids OUTSIDE to be ignored every once in a while! This, people, is how little monsters are made.

Phooey on daycare. Raise your own kids, people.*

*Flamers: The above is NOT directed at single parents. However, if single parents were the only ones sending their children to daycare facilities every day, there would be a whole lot less of them - daycare institutions and little monsters, I mean.

2009-03-17T19:09:00.000-07:00

Yeah, so, I'd tell my doctor he needed to prescribe a DIFFERENT anti-biotic if I wound up suffering from all of those delightful side effects.

In fact, I did. When the antibiotic I was prescribed induced nausea and sharp stabbing pains in my gut within 3 hours of starting the things. I wound up in Urgent Care, and prescribed a more "modern" antibiotic that didn't remind me of 19th century drugs in funky brown glass bottles.

I'm told I used to have ear infections regularly as a child. The good news is, I hardly ever get sick anymore.
