I'm sure I do get COBRA, but it's so spendy.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Hi. My students are taking the MAP. I tried a new sleep medication -- Rozeram or Restoril or something like that.
Rozeram. I was taking it for a while, but discovered the hard way that I was a prime candidate for the "possible side effects of depression, lowered libido, and listlessness". You may want to watch out for those.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Actually, both are considered acceptable. (Grammarians fight over this rule constantly.)
Is there a battle? It's always been a weird thing, because it depends on whether you consider the -ing a gerund or a participle. In this case, I think it's the "keeping" that's important, the action, which would cause me to view it as an important gerund needing a adjectival modifier. On the other hand, you might want the focus to be put on the ExBoss, in that she appreciates him via his action of keeping, which describes him.
But I don't think Aimee cares.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I agree with Nora. Take out the part where you are will to trade the health insurance for severance. You deserve both.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I have changed it to: "in addition to keeping our health insurance."

Best of luck, Aimee! I hope it works out for you.

Now tagless for your comfort.
The worst he can do is say no, right? You lose nothing by asking, which you are doing very nicely, Aimee. I hope he gives it to you.
