Relatedly, something that has been bothering me all weekend: when I was a kid, I was made to gargle salt water for my canker sores.
Me too. Probably just rinsing would have the same effect, since I think it's getting the salt water on the sores that helps (if it in fact does), not getting it into your throat. I hear you on the painful (and also, just tastes nasty) though.
You know we need a spinal tap, right??
Or you could save the day, and take it in October...
Dude, I have Many Days. I have accrued a week of leave and have taken a day and a half.
no spinal tap. I am having a lemon/honey halls that I found. Not sure that counts as sour.
Dude, I have Many Days.
Oh, in that case, never mind.
I wonder how long I will continue to be shocked and awed about the amount of leave time I have in this job?
Salt's antibacterial or antiseptic or something. I am unsure of the precise term that applies, but it reduces the chance of infection.
So this weekend, someone in the Toronto office I've never heard of calls me, puts me in a conference call, and asks if I can log onto a system in the Tokyo office and look at a problem.
I fixed the problem, but for some reason my fixing it caused a big kerfuffle, with people pointing fingers at each other trying to assign blame for what originally caused the problem.
Another reason why I should just stop fixing things at work.
mac has been told about the match and has been given his match gift bag from me and with a letter from me and pictures.
no more substantive work will be completed today.
that is all.
Yay, mac!
Good luck at the doctor's, msbelle.
