Well, it looks like I'm outta here shortly. I'll be mostly very dark grey for the next few weeks, with occasional looks at the interwebs while at Mom's.
Have a great couple of weeks, everyone!

If SAP is the SAP I think it is, I whole heartedly agree.
I love Applebees conceptually, like ooooh! It's where Tyra works on FNL. But for actual food consumption? I'd prefer Cracker Barrel.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Have fun, Kathy!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Once in a while, I wonder how different my life might be if I had been raised by a plump -- or even just average-sized -- woman.
I was raised by plump women who used to be quite thin and it was hell. My grandmother would pat me on the tummy and say, "Need to start some situps before that gets any bigger!" and then accuse me of being anorexic for not taking a third helping of mashed potatoes. Gotta love it.
Both my sister and I are curvy, volumptuous (sp?) women (she's thinner than I am, but I got what she calls "the good legs") and it's taken Mom about 10 years to figure out that hey - we're both relatively healthy so shuddup.

Have a great vacation, Kathy!
I don't think I"ve ever eaten at an Applebees.
Turns out I've been paying for dental insurance since I started here but didn't actually have it. But, the upside of working for a tiny company is that I'll be reimbursed without a lot of beaurocratic rigamarole. And open enrollment is next month so i'll be set up then.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I think "colonoscopy" and "robots" should not happen in the same sentence. There is just a conceptual wrongness there.
I did not know that ringworm is like athlete's foot! (I've never had either.) I do know that athlete's foot cream and yeast infection cream are the same cream, because they uncleverly used the same name (Lotrimin) and what are the odds.
food that is bad for me
I have heard tales of sweet potato fries fried in duck fat, but don't know where you would get them in your neck of the woods.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
But it makes syrup!
Not sap. SAP. Sap is yummy. SAP is evil.
