Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

In a world of drives... drives made of FIRE!

Heh.

I'm definitely going to see an opthalmogist ASAP -- which may, of course, be months away.

If it's an emergency (which this sounds like it could be, with the rapid deterioration of vision) an ophthalmologist should be able to see you immediately.

My regular doctor got me a next-day appointment at an ophthalmologist when I told her that the vision in my left eye had deteriorated noticeably over a four-day period.

I think you should insist on getting an appointment immediately.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So far my favourite use of pumpkin is the traces of pie filling left on the crust. The filling itself is too sweet in bulk, but in small quantities, with pastry...

If there's one sense I really, really can't afford to use, it's my vision

Oh, and I meant to say: Betsy, I hope you're able to get in to see the doctor quickly, and I hope it's something non-serious and easy to fix.

information libertarian

I agree, deterioration of vision this rapid necessitates an emergency appointment. I am glad tommy has actual data to back me up. Call 'em, stat. While you can still see to dial the phone.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I have a weird question. Would it be at all common for a company to have multiple 401k plans?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's creepy, Betsy. Hope they get you in soon and it all figured out.

I'm ok with pumpkin muffins and bready sorts of things. But I don't like pumpkin soups or pastas or that sort of thing. I'm suspicious of squash foodstuffs in general. I like yellow squash and zucchini and that's about as adventuresome as I get wrt squash.

Are squash fruit? If not, why not? Seeds on the inside, what?

But in that case, roses are fruit.

This. Must. Stop.
