I think they said they had two planes skid off the runway just last week. (Rain again.)
Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
paperdol, I can't do anything about medical care, but in the interim you can relieve pain a little. Try gargling with warm salt water, drinking hot tea with lemon and honey, spraying your throat with Chloraseptic. For your ear, try using a heating pad (or something warm) on it. It won't cure anything, but you might be less uncomfortable.
And the rugby players - has Vortex seen them? she'll appreciate it. I certainly did!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Did anyone post about the rugby player who was having these eye infections and headaches? Turned out he had the tooth of another player embedded in his skull.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That almost happened to a friend of mine. Everyone was worrying over the boy with the chipped tooth, and it was a while before they realised where the chip had gone.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Eeewwww.
OK, how come my work isn't getting done while I do other things? I opened the right windows and everything.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Well, I don't have anything embedded anywhere, but I do have lovely cramps, so I tried to call into work. Problem is, with the rearranging of my boss's office situation (she was working from both my building and the one on Peterson, and forwarding her phone calls from one to the other depending on what day it was and where she was working, but due to renovation of the executive wing at my building, they took away her office up here and shut down her phone), I couldn't call her old extension, and even though I know the extension at the Peterson office, I don't know the general prefix for that building, so I can't call there either! So, I just e-mailed her my sick call and asked if she'd call me when she received it.
I feel like a dork for not knowing something as basic as the prefix for that building, especially since I've been working here almost 15 years, but I never have to use the prefix when calling from my office, and that's the only time I've ever had to call there!

In order to let in the work fairy?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The work fairies all got washed away in the TORRENTIAL RAIN.

Stupid rain.
