Not that I approve of extremely swift confirmations of controversial selections for Supreme Court, but my stomach would really like this all to be over quickly so that I can stop actually missing meals because my mother, who usually has been wont to go have a lie-down in the afternoon that gives me a window to grab lunch (even if it doesn't evenly split my workday in half as I would prefer), has decided to park it out in the kitchen all afternoon (plus her usual evenings) to watch the hearings and the associated Fox News commentary. And for some reason within the past couple of months she has started doing this around 10-11 in the morning, as well, which is when I had previously been getting breakfast, so now that's often late enough it's pretty much early lunch. (She usually goes to bed early enough we don't conflict over dinner, but I do occasionally have to wait her out on that too.)
