JZ, I hope your doctor's office can rewrite the script and get you the meds you need.
'suela, that is maddening. I know you will kick ass during the interview and if the dog barks, the dog barks. There wouldn't have been a dog to bark if they had met with you face to face. (I get the reasons why not, but still).
I am over 80 hours for the pay period, so today is just keeping an eye on my e-mail and making sure nothing goes pear shaped. I won't get paid unless I do more than 3 hours of work today (we don't get paid any overhead overtime hours).
Seriously, I'm going to write the rules of grammar ON this writer. Or possibly tattoo them.
I hope you get the inhaler soon, JZ. It's so stupid that even in this age, so many things get missed. I was also shocked that when S. went to fill my Prednisone, the pharmacy was out. I mean, it's Prednisone. How do you run out of something that basic?

Very pretty.
That is perfect.
I hope Consuela is being "hired" on the spot for her job....
This is a cool idea I never would have thought of.
HOWTO recover your stolen car - Boing Boing
Oh, and here’s a tip I hope you never need: if your car is ever stolen, your first calls should be to every cab company in the city. You offer a $50 reward to the driver who finds it AND a $50 reward to the dispatcher on duty when the car is found. The latter is to encourage dispatchers on shift to continually remind drivers of your stolen car. Of course you should call the police too but first things first. There are a lot more cabs than cops so cabbies will find it first -and they’re more frequently going in places cops typically don’t go, like apartment and motel complex parking lots, back alleys etc. Lastly, once the car is found, a swarm of cabs will descend and surround it because cabbies, like anyone else, love excitement and want to catch bad guys. Cabbies know a lot of stuff*. I found a traveling shoplifting ring in Phoenix once. Professional shoplifters always take cabs. So do strippers going to work but that’s another story.
Based on my mother's experience, you don't want it back.
Thieves got in an accident...damaged the frame and it always pulled to the right, afterward.
