It doesn't wake me up nor motivate me to work.

Boo, coffee. Boo.

smonster, could you pay her through your bank's bill pay?

See, I've never used a bank bill pay system before. Can someone explain how it works? Do they cut her a paper check and mail it? Is there a transfer?

erin, so glad your chiro gave you better recommendations.

Looking forward to the Attenborough recap.

I believe my coffee is broken.

It doesn't wake me up nor motivate me to work.

Shir, perhaps there is some kind of worldwide coffee strike? Mine is also not functioning as advertised.

True tales from the headset:

I ask for descriptions. A lot. Today I asked for a clothing description: "what's he wearing? what color shirt or jacket?" Caller: "it's a very summery gay ensemble, that's the only way I can describe it. Light and fluffy. " I start cracking up, just a little.

Smonster, my online payment option for the rental company (or anyone not having an online account) is that my bank cuts a paper check and mails it off...and then keeps impeccable records of when it is recieved, when cashed/deposited, etc.

This is what mine does, too. I pay my rent this way, even though my landlords are next door and I could just write out a check and put it through their mail slot, because I'm not always good at remembering when I'm supposed to pay, and so I've got my bank account set up to automatically send a check on the 25th of every month. Also helpful because my online account thing knows that I've got that check going out each month, and so it doesn't count that money in the "amount available" figure that I see when I log on.

I'm feeling a lot better today. I'm nearly certain I know what medicine was causing the nausea, and I'm skipping it today. I had some crackers and hummus for breakfast, and my stomach feels pretty much OK with that.

Evil. What's next? Am I not to believe politicians and sales representative?

Hil and erin, glad you're better.

What erin and Hil said about online bill pay,and also glad you're both feeling better.

I forget things. Like paying bills that are due every single month. Online bill pay allows me to function like a responsible adult.

I did what I promised myself I would do! I got out of bed at 6:30 and went to the park, and did some exercise-type things. I'll do it again tomorrow, too, by Jove. (I am so out of shape, it's scary. Holy Zeus, apparently instead of 49 I turned 80. Must get in shape, else I cannot hope to keep up with my energetic friend in London in November.)

Apparently feeling nauseous and dizzy on this medication is something really wrong, because the doctor's office called me in response to my email about it and said that my regular doctor is away, but that I should come in and see a different doctor about it.

my on line bill pay cut a paper check when it has t , but they have agreements.understandings with some companies - so it is more like an electronic transfer. The good thing- they will hep if things go wrong

fell better everyone -
