Sleep Study and Dairy Industry Crapola

Going in for my sleep study tonight, which my lame butt insurance company finally approved after jumping through 3827 hoops. Almost as bad as the freaking school district at 3828 hoops.

Cross your fingers that I don't actually have sleep apnea and just have stupid insomnia.

Umm...I'm not as grumpy as this post sounds.

Well, I'm pissed off at the dairy industry which is trying to add artificial sweetners to dairy products, but not put it on the label. Especially to the flavored milks they provide to schools. One of their justifications? The public doesn't know flavored milk has sweetners in it anyway so it doesn't need to be on the label. And it has nothing to do with the decline in milk sales at all, does it? Nothing to do with trying to get people to have an addictive response to a food so they will buy more of it. *growls*

I will post a link tomorrow about how to let the gov know that this is a stupid idea if anyone wants it.

Now, off to not sleep in a bed that is not mine, but with my own pillow.

Joy.

Really, not as grumpy as it sounds.

Just throwing a major tantrum because someone has taken and put up my .pdf story file of Wolf Moon on rapidshare Bosnia WITHOUT BLOODY ASKING ME FIRST.  And I know it was mine and not some other story of the same name because it had my user name on it.

You know what?  I am pretty easy going about things, I've allowed my stories to be translated into Russian, German, Spanish, and French and I didn't mind one bit because the people asked me first and gave all due credit.  It's not like I wouldn't have given permission, but...the lack of courtesy expressed here, just taking it and putting it out there from a source that was not approved by me really majorly pisses me off.  I know that when you put stuff on the internet you pretty much lose control over it, and this is not as bad as plaigerism or any such thing as that, and I am probably blowing it all out of proportion, but it still feels like I'm being stolen from AND I DON'T LIKE IT.

Whover you are, person from Bosnia, next time just bloody ask me.

/end rant

There.  I feel better now.  Back to writing Three Hour Tour.
