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.
What shrift said. I was all set to comment and there are 4-6 more things I want to say to individual people. My apologies for leaving anyone out:
Brenda, fight the good fight and good luck to you.
Tommy I hope your dad's stroke was mild and easily treatable
Salmon today and salmon forever.
Tommyrot, it's good your dad is going to the ER, because quick treatment can really prevent damage from a stroke (if it is actually a stroke). I hope everything works out well for him.

You are evil. EVIL.
I support all the salmon.

I did not need to know this. Danger.
Tommy, good luck.
I am putting off both doing work and calling the cops/graffiti hotline. Don't wanna.
Fingers crossed for your dad, Tommy! Prompt treatment can make all the difference... and if it isn't a stroke, then they will be able to figure out what else it might be.
Zen, I think you've made the right decision. Sometimes you just have to stand to the side.
Since I'm still on cough medicine, I'm wondering if it's going to be possible for me to get to the family "holiday" gathering on Sunday. Should I worry about still being contagious, because seriously, my aunt's health can be fragile. Oy.

I bought one of those for the Thanksgiving time eating.
It didn't last very long.
I'm not sure how promptly they sent my dad to the ER. Someone noticed this morning that he was "unresponsive" and half his face was drooping, so they immediately sent him to the ER. But my sister said something about someone noticing something wrong a few days ago--dunno what exactly they saw then or why they didn't do anything at the time.
eta: I'm hoping it was a miscommunication between the nursing home and my sister, and that the unresponsiveness and drooping only started today.
I love my sister and I want to help her out, but I'm just done with being her go-between.
Healthy boundaries! You can't change her behavior, but you can change yours.
Everyone! Is too much.

I do need to go there some time soon.....
Oh! Here's the real problem of my new job: There is another Jesse H in my larger department. Of course it's a man. But it's confusing when my officemate is talking about him...
CO gets its first TJ's on February 14, 2014 up in Boulder. Over the next 12 months I know of at least 3 others that will be opening in the greater Denver area.
Which does not get me treats in which to drown my sorrows. Probably a good thing, darn it.
