To get a decent place in this city, one we'd want to live in for the duration, we'd need at least $65,000 to put *down*.
(Which, really, if we actually do have at least $40k in equity right now, isn't outside of possible, assuming I'm able to find work post-baby.)
I could almost certainly spend $80,000 on a parking place.
CRAP CRAP CRAP.
Anyone have any really good suggestions for taxes? Cause I just did mine and seem to owe $2400. I went over it a couple times and it still adds up like that. FUCK.
I think if you're
that
much at risk, get thee to H&R Block or best equivalent.
tax accoutant - or do as ita said.
Nonian- hugs to your friend and her DH - that is just a crazy difficult thing for both of them - and thier daughter.
When we had our birthing classes, the nurse described her three labors (all natural). The back labor sounded really painful.
It's a bitch. One of the pesky things about it too (in my experience, at least) is that the nurses monitoring your progress don't seem to think you're as far along in labor as you actually are. I stunned my nurses in all three deliveries.
Plei, for what it's worth, nobody ever mentioned my placenta being up front (and I would think they would, yes?), and I had back labor, exclusively.
I've never heard of that before; I do know back labor is more common if the baby's face is anterior.
One of the reasons they were surprised Annabel was sunny side up was that I never had back labor.
Fwiw, my kids were all face down, despite all my back labor.
I never bothered to look to see if O came out right side-up. I was getting a bigger kick watching my twin sister's eyes turn into dinner plates. And worrying if Christopher was ever going to breath again.
Blessed epidural.
Well, I couldn't have looked if I'd wanted to. I only know because they said, "Oh, THAT'S why she was stuck."
Christ on a stick.
Dear Sunil Patel,
My grandson, in engineering at U of M, emailed me a copy of your article on the connection between TB and RA. I asked him to find your email address so that I could congratulate you on your mighty fine article. As a retired physicist, I appreciate such a clear, well organized scientific article. As the former editor-in-chief of my high school newspaper, I love to read such good writing. You probably realize, as I do, that good journalism is seldom found, even in some of the largest metropolitan papers. I will not apply any adjectives to your article because all of the positive ones that I can think of are appropriate.
You may turn any of the above into a letter to the editor if you wish.
And then there are a few tidbits of info related to the article. I...good crap. God. I need to get this thesis shit going so I can write more articles. Aaah. I am gobsmacked.

See?! Okay, now I feel completely validated being one of the people pushing you into a career of science writing.
