Economic Update, Family Update, Rantings, Ect.
The worth of the dollar is going down... I don't care what anyone else says... It just is.
Personally, though don't take me too politically, I don't think the "Recession" is "Over" and that there really isn't some sort of "Recovery" going on. Personally, I don't think it should be called a "Recession" at all—though, then again, if They called it anything else; They would probably get some freak-outs from citizens.
Anyways, I'm talkin' too much—here comes the point.
If you remember, this was my first note on my "Number-trackings":
May 1st, 2009: 1 US Dollar = 0.754 Euro, 99.295 Japanese Yen, 0.673 British Pound Sterling, 7.75 Hong Kong Dollar, and 1.374 Australian Dollar.
I hadn't been checking the Economy for quite a while, lately, but I think I intend to do so much ,much, MUCH more often; you will see why in a moment.
So Daddy and I managed to get talking about Politics and Economics (if you are in America, you may understand this is a rather depressing subject :) ), so eventually Daddy actually showed me what we were talking about: Mainly Inflation and a big mess of slowly-decreasing numbers on the USD side; and INcreasing numbers on the other Economies' sides:
So yeah, I ranted a bit on that for a while...
ANYWAYS, on a happier note, most of the family is actually feeling a lot better.
Well, anyways, Daddy seems better; and Levi feels better (probably because he had no dairy/milk today), but Mommy still has a headache.
As for me, I don't actually in a sense feel "Better", at least that's not the word I would describe for it.
For example, last night, I hawked-up (that's a word, right? Well, if it isn't, it is now; because I felt that it was a good word for the explanation of the verb, if you know what I mean :) ) gunk (I don't know if you could really call it gunk, now, as it is no longer green—more white—but one will find that it has the same texture in one's throat) and mucus-stuff for, I think, well over an hour—but you would probably have to ask Mommy about that, as she was up and with me most of the time (thank you, Mommy).
Oh! And, a day or two ago, I updated The Professor and The Robot's Loyal-readers; so, if you haven't, you should probably go and read-them. ;)
I am afraid that is all I have to say for now, so have a good rest-of your day or night, depending on where you are in the world and how long it has been since I have posted this. :)

I can see a bit now what they meant in the Great Depression as "Depressing", but that doesn't mean we should keep in low spirits.
Many civilizations have come and gone through time, and I don't see why America should be an exception, of course no offense, and, anyways; God and our souls are the only real things that are eternal.
