Always Anti-fascist!

Almost exactly. And Kelly Ayotte babbling about "context" hardly counts, in my view. She should be embarrassed.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Ok- thanks to JZ I did fill out my open enrollment form. It just feels like a crap shoot, but I went with 'high deductable" again, even though as I age I have more and more health problems. My out of pocket maximum is $2500, so that seems fairly reasonable, and I have an HSA for that amount. The plan is only $8.00 a month, and the other plans are all over $30 a month.

What is a subrogation form??

There's a blow dry bar opening near my work. I had to google to find out what that was.

Ooh, I went to one of those for the first time, a few weeks ago. I felt so pretty. But I can't imagine paying for that on the regular, at all.

I did my open enrollment yesterday. No changes to the health plan, so I kept the one I have, but am fully funding my FSA, since I'm planning on eye surgery (which will cost more than I can put in the FSA). And may need a root canal/crown on a tooth. Ugh.

Now tagless for your comfort.

We are dogsitting for a friend for the weekend and there are carpet cleaners doing the whole house. Visiting dog is a nervous pee-er. It's possible I should have scheduled the carpet cleaners for Monday.

meara, subrogation is where one insurance company tries to get another insurance company to pay for the bill.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Kaiser is trying to figure out if some other insured entity is at fault for my accident. I know they're not, and have been ignoring their notices for months now.

So, I love Kaiser, they're the best, but they are ridiculous. I went to , dunno, 15 or so doctor visits in the past few months. I've been asked 20+ times if this happened at work. STILL NO. How many times was I asked if this was the result of abuse? One time. In front of my husband, btw.

Side note: my friend Robin dated Henry Kaiser, the noted guitarist and grandson of Henry J. Kaiser (the founder). He had some curious sexual proclivities.
