Vortex, that is wonderful news! I am abstractly fond of Harford Insurance because they took good care of my MiL after Katrina (when not all insurance companies were so inclined), so I'm hopeful it will be a good place to work.
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Congrats, Vortex! That's very exciting!

I look more rad than Lutheranism
espousing things like -- his (Tim's Dad) salvation is contingent on getting his children to come back to the church
Seriously? That's ... not very Catholic, to me. No church I've ever attended had that kind of attitude. But then if it did, I wouldn't have been going there.
Yeah, I was literally speechless when he said that. I have never heard of such a thing. His parish is a little weird.
Nobody's talking about liberation theology anymore, that's for sure.
And that (liberation theology) was something I loved about Catholicism. Don't know where it went.

Vortex, I am thrilled for you!
Does this mean you are moving?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Good onya, Vortex. Hey, that reminds me. Legal counsel is always spelt legal counsel, right? Not legal council? I kept correcting that in a work document, and people kept making the error again. At least, I've been assuming it's an error in the US as well.
Ugh, Frank. I can't stress thorough testing enough. My mother was sick for two years before she got a correct diagnosis. TWO YEARS after her first visit with a gastroenterologist.
What's the time difference at which jet lag becomes a factor? Because the 2 or 3 hours that Jamaica is different from LA doesn't seem to bother me. The actual plane ride is a strange time out of time.

I hope they figure out what to do about your mother, Frank.
Could she be having trouble swallowing liquids?

Yep. Good news is that they're paying for it.

also yep. A legal council would be a group of people who do something legal.
