elfsOmaha called me at work, crying, trying to hold her guts together as food poisoning, probably from a nasty chicken salad sandwich she bought at lunch, rumbled about inside her on caterpillar treads. I headed home on the bus, but by great coincidence ran into ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shaterri in downtown and he gave me a ride home. I'm so grateful he did, because Omaha sounds awful right now. She can't keep anything down-- I'm worried about getting her epilepsy medicine into her-- she's buried in multiple layers of blankets and extra-warm socks, and I'm waiting for the community nurse to call us back. I'm cooking dinner for Kouryou-chan and I while we wait for the call.
Mothers Against Genetic Engineering (MAdGE, what's wrong with "MAGE?") has created a huge stir in New Zeland with their new billboard, which has finally gone up. The poster, which features a naked woman with four breasts (definitely not work safe), asks the question "Why not just genetically engineer women for milk?" I'm sure they thought they were making a point about genetically engineered cows, but it doesn't resonate.
The SF pervert within looks at that picture and thinks someone's been reading few little too 70's underground comics. I also have to wonder what the designer of the ad campaign has been thinking; my first reaction upon seeing that is "Hey, a babe with four breasts! Cool!" and then I want to write my own fiction about it. If we ever come up with the capacity to genegineer ourselves and women appear on the streets with quadraboob action, it won't be for milk.
Unless she's being paid to make, y'know, that kind of movie.
Speaking of which (charlesks, oh Charles!), check out Callgirl of Cthulhu! (again, probably not very worksafe).
Well, the nurse called back. I'm now plying Omaha with pedialyte as her major concern now is dehydration. She seems to be holding down the few sips I gave her, but the mere smell of cooking dinner drove her back into the bathroom before that. I hope she's okay. The nurse thinks it might be a double-whammy; she got food poisoning this afternoon and might have caught the flu more or less at the same time.
We'll see tomorrow.
