I would have loved to have seen THAT reaction.

NicVAX is designed to stimulate the immune system to generate antibodies that latch on to nicotine in a smoker’s body and actually prevent nicotine from ever entering the brain. The testing began last week

Hmm.. A vaccine being developed to help stop smoking? Sound a little sci-fi’ish if you ask me, but I also think it might be the next best thing.

It’s no secret how I feel about smoking. Just take a look here, here, here, here, here, here and here. (By the way.. I had no idea I had blogged so much about this subject)

I think this new vaccine brings possibility to those smokers who have wanted to quit, have tried everything, but still fall victim to this slave-like addiction. Maybe, just maybe this could help them.. and in effect help us by eliminating the smoke world-wide.

I’ll be interested to see how this develops.

For the count that is. Have I mentioned how much the night shift and I do not get along? (You’re probably getting sick and ‘tired’ of hearing it from me)

Here’s my problem. I’m a light sleeper. So light of a sleeper that the wind outside wakes me- not a lie. So ‘forcing’ myself or convincing myself to sleep is just impossible.

I’m all out of sorts.

My body is rejecting my F’d up circadian clock right now. It doesn’t know if it’s coming or going. Day or night? Stay awake.. or sleep?

When I want or need to sleep.. I’m wide fricken awake!. When I want or need to stay awake.. I’m peeling my eyelids open just to focus! I have to convince my synapses they need to fire.

My mind’s not right. My brain is hazy. And my attitude has gone down the toilet. My poor wife has suffered the most. She gets to listen to me whine.. and she gets the whipping end of my short-fuse. I seem to be snapping and ‘biting’ at all the small things – and I KNOW I’m doing it. She’s so good to me, tolerating me and my down-right miserable-ness. These are one of the million times I am truly lucky to be her husband. She makes me a better man by simply being her – because no one else would tolerate me and my bitterness. I love you angel.

Grr.

I hate this.

I hate the ‘me’ I see.

the abnormal sleep and fall in vigilance demonstrated among intensive care unit nurses may have implications for patient safety

I can relate to this dangerous possibility.

*SIGH*

You have to give the guys who created the site credit for stealing a great idea. An idea that we all wish WE would have thought of!

Before it went insanely viral.. it was comical and down right entertaining. Now… I’m not as easily entertained. I’m now more ‘put-off’. I’m beside myself viewing some of these pictures. I can’t stop thinking, “REALLY? Someone actually left their house looking like that?”

I have a hard time grasping this concept, or wrapping my mind around this absurdity. Either these ‘people of walmart’ do not own a mirror, or they’re doing it on purpose.

I’m starting to lean towards the latter. I mean C’mon. Take for instance this one:

Wintery Mix | www.peopleofwalmart.com.

Really? Am I to believe this person actually looked at their outfit.. and thought… yep. I’m good to go. Let’s go shopping.

Here’s my theory:

I think the public is catching on to this site.. (or maybe the creators of the site are just as guilty) .. and these ‘people’ are purposely finding a ‘costume’ so-to-speak.. so that they can get on the internet? Or they are donning this costume.. and getting pics on this site just to generate traffic.

Is it a far-fetched idea?

Just my humble opinion.
