Sigh. I went to the doctor this AM to talk about all the anxiety and stress I have been having, mostly due to work. It was a really hard step for me to take...I am not really good about asking for help. My doctor was great to talk to and we discussed all my options for treatment, but mostly we agreed that counselling of some kind would be good for me. Since my work has an employee assistance program that provides counselling, and since most of my anxiety seems to be work related, she suggested I start there, mostly because it's free for however long it lasts. I come home, call EAP and first, get a phone tree. I make it through the tree and get voicemail!!! WTF! What kind of counselling program is this.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Unscientific poll - do you say:
- USB key
- Thumb drive
- Flash drive
- USB thumb drive
- other (please explain)
I...I think I use "flash drive" now? Mostly?

That's the worst. I hate trying to get help! It's always so haaaard.
I think I say "thumb drive," but think I should say "flash drive."
Flash drive
My theatre boss calls it a "dongle". Which is wrong, and sounds dirty to me.
Flash drive.
Flash drive.
This is suddenly sounding like something a drunk sorority girl does out a car window.
Mmkay. I'm going with "portable USB flash drive" in this email, then. Redundant, but clear.
Leave a message, Sue. They'll call back. It's like that everywhere now -- you can almost never get a live person on the phone first thing.
Jessica, I say flash drive.
"flash drive," But I laughed really hard at Date Night when Tina Fey said her whole office called it the stick thing. Beverly, I love those ads, but I'm a Domenic West fangirl.
