When my DH switched insurance companies (before we were married) to the one I was using, he saved over $1000/year. Ridiculous.

My nose is so stuffy-runny and has been for days now that I can barely touch it with the (lotion) tissues. Ouch. This is my worst cold in recent memory and I don't even know who to blame for it.

The coworker and his wife have named their son Sebastian. I cannot get past the Brideshead Revisited connection in my brain.

I really would like DH's co to be reliable about paying expense reports- they used to be very good, so I never worried about floating our money to the co cc. But there have been some really bad ( 4+ wks later) delays, so I have to wait until I see a check before paying...

I may HAVE to go back to work tomorrow, if only to not die or boredom.

Oh, I'm SO with you on that. I went grocery shopping yesterday just to get out of the house for a bit. It was such a treat! And productive too!

Moms of children over 12 months:

Where do you change them?

I'm trying to decide if I want to get a changing table for Em's room or not. We currently use our dresser as her changing table, but once we switch rooms, the dresser's leaving her room.

Hello Lovelies! So nice to be caught up so I can talk (at least til I fall behind again).

Forgot to meara, as per usual...

libkitty, so sorry for your community's loss. Will keep you all in prayer for speedy (and well-insured) recovery.

Sail, so sorry for the loss of your aunt.

vw & trudes & juliana, feel-better-like-now-with-stern-looks-virus&bacteria-ward~ma to you all.

KaterinaBee & others... Toxic Boss Contest.

Had such a Saturday. It was like two or three Mondays banded together, disguised themselves as a Saturday and attacked.

Even after a quiet (mostly because I hid in my room with TV & homework) Sunday, it was kind of a relief to come in to work today. Does that seem right to you? I feel like sharing details, because it's thankfully getting funnier from a distance but I haven't written anything down yet. Maybe later.

sj, I don't do LJ. Is there another alternative for booklistyness?

Anybody else? Slightly exhausted hugs & ~ma all 'round.

I just friended you on lj, sj. Although I always want new books, I don't need any, but I like to take any opportunity to add b.org folks without the effort of having to search for them. Also, I'm pretty bad at reading there and horrible about posting, so I don't know if you want to add me, but feel free.

Toxic Boss Contest

Ooooh, beth, you need to nominate your DH's president for that lovely and phenomenally toxic little story you told on Saturday night.

Vibing get-better-and-please-don't-die-of-ennui vibes to vw and Trudy.

Now I'm off to the women's lounge near our cafeteria, for lo, I feel like ass. Clearly something on this board is contagious.

An Internet gossip magazine has published pictures of a co-worker snogging his girlfriend. Now I am traumatized. Not in the ewwwww way, but rather in the "must. keep. mind. on. meeting" way.
