Holoprosencephaly

Occasional work-related post, #2: Three of my favorite people at work got laid off yesterday, and I'm not afraid of saying that working here without them will suck. Seriously, I'm in complete denial, because thinking about it too much will send me into a depression spiral. I'm losing one of the best bosses ever; my everything gossip-, life-, lunch- and fun-buddy; and a terrific friend. So suddenly, since I'll be left without three of my best chatters, I'll be getting a whole lot more work done, and life will be quiet, too quiet.
As for the bruise on my butt, it's still there, and probably won't fade for at least a week. Brian was absolutely horrified by it last night, reacting as though he'd seen a decapitated body ("Oh my god! Oh, shit! That's so nasty looking!"), and then proceeded to giggle at my discomfort on the sofa all night. He did take a picture for Mom though. I could post it, but it's just too personal, my friends. I mean really, isn't there enough porn on the internet?
And thanks to Andy, we've got some new evidence of interestingness for our favorite celebrity couple, Tom and Katie. Here's the gist: Tom Cruise has three upper incisors, which in combination with his shorter stature, dyslexia and family history, indicates a genetic disorder called holoprosencephaly, a disorder that might explain why Nicole Kidman's pregnancies during their marriage ended in miscarriages. We certainly don't wish anything bad for our favorite crazy couple, and hope that the pregnancy goes well. However, this picture to the left may make you go, "huh?" (Click on it to make it bigger.) It's a timeline of the last few months, and chronicles the size of Katie's belly, speculating that the pregnancy may not even be real.
