'Touched'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh, Cashmere, I'm so sorry.
Sophia, while you're looking at juniors' clothing sites for school-type blazers, if you happen to find a b&w or b&grey striped blazer that comes in an XL, PLEASE send me the link. Please. I need one, and haven't been able to find an XL one anywhere.
I had the oddest conversation about health care with some one -- a friend is self insured -- and I was complaining about the bureaucracy involved in switching -- esp when it is every couple of months. My friend kept getting up set because he thought I was complaining about cost. I said no -- I am aware that I even with COBRA I am paying less than if I was self- insured, but just the paperwork to switch is crazy.
I'm hopeing we can make this easier -- I'd love single payer, but I think we can make things less crazy making as a first step.
Oh Cash! feh. I don't even know what to say, but here's some coping-ma for you and your father.
Thanks Jessica and Ginger!
I am doing a really "quasi" private school-- like private school in a world where people turn into butterflies and speak in iambic pentameter, or say, more like Tatu than a real uniform, so I actually like the stripes, and am considering having the jackets for the girls be all different patterns but the same color. I am just nervous about finding grey jackets for the 2 boys.
Also, GADS! I skipped right over Cashmere's news. I wish you much coping~ma.
From PZ: Can't we all get along?
The Phelps gang is picketing in Chicago with their "god hates fags" sign. Hate meets hate: there was a counter-demonstration.
The counter-demonstration had a woman with a sign saying "Cthulhu Hates Chordates." Heh.
Oh Cash, that's so crazy talk! I"m so sorry. Eep. Parents should not be doing things like that! :(
Gah, Cash! That's madness. I'm sorry.
I just had to put my foot down to a recruiter who wanted me to lie on my resume. And a stupid lie too. He wanted me to say I'd done things at my last job that I'd actually done in the ones before. WTF? I told him to not submit me if he didn't want to, but I wouldn't lie.
