The phrase in the article I'm editing that keeps making me laugh and laugh: "prophylactic prevention." WHAT OTHER TYPE OF PREVENTION IS THERE.
I really want to edit it to read "prophylactic prevention taken ahead of time."

Steph, I recently coded a concomitant medication whose indication was "mouth hygiene prophylaxis."
So...they're trying to prevent oral hygiene?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Or preventatively??

Prophylactic mouth hygiene? Just rinse with Lysol!

Thanks for all the dress compliments. I have a few dresses from that site. I like the hippy-dippy vibe and that they're cotton. Really reasonably priced, except that shipping to Canada starts at $17.95. I think it was Sophia who linked to it one day.

Heh. I still remember reviewing listings one time and everyone paused at an adverse event of "Unexpected Benefit". We were like "What is that uncoded?!?" Turned out to be a wisdom tooth removal! Um. Not quite.

My office has a "first-aid room" downstairs that is also used as a nursing room for moms and, most often, as a nap room for everyone else. All one has to do is pick up the key at the front desk and head downstairs for some sleep.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
With the redesign, there's a mothers room at work now. It's a dark little cubby hole with lots of filing cabinets. I would neither sleep in their, nor bare my nipples for milky purposes.
Thanks for liking my outfit, Scrappy!
"prophylactic prevention."
Maybe they want to prevent prophylaxis?
