"mouth hygiene prophylaxis."

Preventively!

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.

Steph, I recently coded a concomitant medication whose indication was "mouth hygiene prophylaxis."

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?

That was the craziest bipolar distribution I have ever seen. Makes me wonder if there is an error.

Digging through WVS docs, the question was originally an either/or, and then changed to a 10 point scale. It looks like the less nuanced version was still used in India in 2005. They do clearly distinguish the two versions of the question, and there are other countries where there's only data for the 2-answer version. To me it looks like a mistake in how data for that question is indexed, but the site is a maze so there may be an explanation for it that I just didn't stumble across.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

thanks for digging into the docs. They need to put an asterisk by India.
