No Foolin'

White Rabbits, and happy April Fools' Day, where it's never a good idea to believe anything you read on the internet, even in this age of the Gish gallop. The WaPo, which still retains its "Democracy Dies in Darkness" on some pages, has a good overview of many April Fools' corporate pranks, but it now appears to be behind their paywall. As for me, I got very little sleep, I'm mainlining nasal spray and nose drops like they're going out of style, yet somehow I got through my workday and the dental office, where SURPRISE! I got fitted for not one but TWO crowns. I left my laptop at the office as I'll be getting my periodic hemoglobin fasting blood draw tomorrow before I go in, same medical complex as today's dentist.
