Okay, I have been extraordinarily dumb. I called complaining to my local power provider about a rebate on my new energy efficient fridge that I hadn't received. (There was one from the local power provider and one from Sears.) Except that I apparently did receive the one from the power provider. In November. And completely forgot about it. Thank god I was nice and polite to people. Now I just have to worry about my brain malfunctioning.

Shrift, that sounds alarmingly like what Aims had.
Ah, crap. I remember something about whooping cough? Was that it, or was it something else?
I had a cupcake today. But I've been eating all sorts of vegetables and whole grains and fruit, otherwise. I think tonight it'll be panko-crusted tilapia and wilted spinach.

Woot!
Review is over. It went well. It looks like my boss may have finally convinced the powers that be (her words!) to promote me. More importantly, my final assessment grade means I get 150% of my bonus, which at least partially makes up for the fact that our group hasn't been bonused at all since I started almost 4 years ago.
Mostly, I've had such a crappy few weeks waiting for various results and such that I'm just so relieved it's over.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I remember something about whooping cough?
Okay, I didn't read that you coughed so hard you threw up, right? I didn't read that? It didn't happen? Any bruising on your face? Kinda hard to actually breathe with all of the coughing?
Because you, shrift, are going to the doctor. Please.

Cass, poor shrift wrote: "I don't know what I was thinking, considering that I coughed so much last night that I couldn't hold down dinner."
I so hope it's not whooping cough.
SOOOOO happy for you Megan!
P-C, you feel my pain, then.

Yeah, doctor time. I've known a couple people who it has turned out to be walking pneumonia or the like.
Apparently being frustrated and not being starving (ate dinner first, usually eat after I swim)= awesome fast swim. I managed an average lap speed of just under 55s. For 48 laps. WOOOHOO. It was definite work, though. I usually average 57s.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Coughing so hard you throw up is totally a sign you need to go to a doctor.
So is a diagnosis of concrete in the lungs, which is how I initially interpreted "concrete dx".

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Shrift, that sounds alarmingly like what Aims had. And she ended up with a concrete dx for something yucky iirc.
Ah, crap. I remember something about whooping cough? Was that it, or was it something else?
That was it. Which was totally horrible. Get thee to the doctor, ASAP!!
