Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh no, Theo! Argh. Also, that sounds expensive for bare minimum cable.
I wouldn't describe the headaches I've had the last couple of days as migraines, they just aren't, but they are accompanied by the feeling that my brain has been removed and my skull stuffed with cotton. Do not like.
Oh, Theo, what a pain. I'm sorry.
Huh so the just below the surface grumpiness is all because of flea? Good to know. You nasty lady having the dream sex with my imaginary actor boyfriend.
Well, the bare-minimum is actually basic cable- basic internet - local phone, and bundled they actually cost less than billed separately.
I'm trying to tote up all the money I put out for Minet, which I really doubt I'm ever getting back from his Mom, who is in more dire straits than I am. Back-of-an-envelope it's over $900. In how bad taste would it be to set up a pass-the-hat on GoFundMe or someplace to beg very politely for some help with that?
(I mean, asking only what I can absolutely document, like the vet bills and the insulin and syringes.)
Oh, shit. I need goals for this quarter. I totally forgot about that.

Not in bad taste at all. I think you should do it.
That makes sense, Theo. I guess for all three that isn't so bad, but my mental sense of what things cost is stuck in the 80s or 90s so everything always sounds expensive to me.
Asking for help seems okay to me. That's a not insignificant sum you spent on a compassionate cause. I don't know the practicality of those things, but it doesn't seem in poor taste to me (especially if you can do it without alerting Minet's mom that it's happening, just because it would probably make her feel bad)
In a hot tub, I might add.
Better or worse? (I am asking msbelle)
OK, have applied for Financial analyst position (internal online application process is not too stupid) and notified my boss that I was doing so. HR tells me it's a "lateral move" paywise - I've got a 1% raise in my salary requirements because I rounded up. But I would require that to move.
Not sure I would take this job if offered, frankly. It's a longer commute, which would have to be by car I think, and I know very few people at that site. I can't tell from the description if the job would be a better fit for me and my education or not. But I figure keeping in practice with interviewing when I don't really need (or maybe want) the job is probably good. We'll see what happens.
Man, I like the taste of horseradish. Nom nom nom.
THAT WAS A DREAM IMPOSTER.
Theodosia, I don't think it is in poor taste at all to ask for a bit of help when you are in a bind, especially since you used so much of your own resources to help an animal and a person who were also in a bind.
