Sorry about the roller coaster, Scrappy. I would have thought they would have done a biopsy, since it could be metastasis from her previous cancer. How could they even talk about treatment options without knowing that?
Whoa. Good myth.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Goodness, Ginger. The universe needs to back off. As do some Atlantean drivers.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
SO MUCH WORSE.
It was bad. I kept going to the webpage automatically, even though logically I knew it was down.
Scrappy, ~ma to your mom. It feels weird to say I hope it's an infection, but given the other option...
The plumber was able to fix our clogged sink fairly quickly, but our sump pump is dead like a dead thing. We're going to have to replace it at some point, but we're hoping we can hold off until January.

{{{Ginger}}} I'm so glad you weren't hurt, but seriously the universe should back off of you.

No kidding, Ginger! Glad you're okay, though.

I have no idea what a sump pump actually is, but sounds expensive. Good luck, sj.
Ginger, geez! What a pain in the rear. The police report thing seems like the general stupid cost cutting all municipalities have been doing. "you can have all the records you are legally entitled to, but we will charge $8 a page!"
I am hanging out at the airport lounge. I did the one urgent piece of work and am sticking fingers in my ears and shouting "lalalala" to avoid all the rest of it. Though I did just get a recruiter email about a local job...it's a step up, so they probably wouldn't hire me, but it's worth a shot.

It pumps water out of the basement, which can be important when you get a foot of snow in the winter and then it melts all at once. We got an informal quote of $300 to install a new one, but I think that may have been on the low side. We'll call our plumber for a formal quote when we get serious. We could afford it now if we really needed too, but it would be easier after the holidays.

I killed the thread already.

A student somehow ended up with an answer of "x=3" on a problem that didn't have an x.
But everyone knows it's "x=8". (Yes, that's how I got a passing grade in algebra.)
Poor Nora and Tom!
Ginger, I want the universe to treat you better.
Hugs to everyone! (Before I run back into work deadline, that is.)
