I do it cause I get frequent flyer miles at B&N, but not Amazon.
But I am a freak about frequent flyer miles.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dana has one of those mattresses, Consuela, and I'm pretty sure she likes it. I've heard great things about them.

Wah. Bonus time always makes me so sad, because I work for a Looniversity. (Even though I got a bonus this year, very unusually. (Our bonuses happen in summer). It went away immediately on normal expenses.)

Had a meeting with my boss in which she finally raised the illness question. I reminded her I'd not taken a sick day this whole time, and in fact was working from the ER when I had to go in. I explained the whole 1-3 (yeah, we're up to three some days) migraines a day thing, and that I was making sure I was getting everything done -- I might not be present, but I was dependable.
It's hard to read her, but when we discussed other work responsibilities I could take on, she did mention taking into account what of them I could do from home.
