Yay, Brenda!
That's not a thing where you guys are?
We have very hard water here. Maybe it's because of being mountain runoff or something, In any case, Hubby was having continual kidney stones before we switched to only drinking bottled water rather than our tap water. When we did that, the kidney stones went nearly completely away.

Lake Michigan water is pretty hard, too. But I love the way it tastes--best tap water in the country, imo.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jesus. That was the salesiest call I've made in the last little while. I'm living breathing and sleeping this project. I want...I don't know what I want for it, but it had better be good.
They gave me this user's contact information, saying he used the premium featureset we were integrating with, so I should talk to him about the user experience. Turns out, no, he's not a premium user, so useless for my needs, but I have a couple minutes on my hands: I pitch premium to him, pitch the upcoming integration, and pitch my April 2011 project to him. Man, he likes to talk. He even asked for my email address. So we can continue getting closer? I have no idea.

I want to do that! Bank of America, will you let me do that? You got fancy with your ATMs, but I don't think you let me do this. I don't want to go to you. Pfft.

Brenda! You rock it, woman! Hookers and blow!
Living in the future.
Flying cars! But yeah. So today I was running around like a mad weasel trying to get stuff done, and I was thinking about austerity measures for our company, one of which could be moving our post office from the one four (tiny) towns away which was convenient when we lived there to the tiniest one in our actual neighborhood. It would be helpful in that we would not have to go into town to pick up checks the day before we go into town to make our deposit. BUT! If we also had a bank that let us take photos, we could just pick up our donations and make the deposit, like, immediately. Without any significant gas expenditure at all. All the more reason to get out of BoA.
Anyway. I got my project accomplished. Although I think I still need to go to town now. I had a nice sit-down lunch to make it up to myself for the morning's frustrations, and the waitress asked me did I have everything I needed in the house for the incoming storm. And I said yes, all I needed to do was haul some firewood. But then I realized, no, actually, I'm short milk, butter, and eggs like always. Where is my butter and egg man? So yeah, I should probably do that, and maybe pick up some salt for the driveway.
