Seriously, that's an undue burden?
But having to drive 300 miles to an abortion clinic in another state is not an undue burden.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Eta: holler NOT Hillary. Is our autocorrect election triggered?
Damn you, Hillary! How far does your lack of computer expertise reach?

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Random: so, I need to promote our local SPCA's new fundraiser happening the Sunday after Easter - Brunch Fest - on TV. I'm supposed to dress up in my favorite brunch outfit and I don't know what that means!
I assume they mean dressy brunch and not yoga pants and a brewery T-shirt, which comprises a shocking number (or maybe not so much) of my outfits for various occasions.
So, thoughts? I don't want to look stupid on TV, but it's a local morning show so I don't really want to spend money on anything new.

Like you were going to church (on TV) but one step more casual?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, a day dress, probably?

Dress pants and a nice blouse? Non-fancy dress?

Yeah, cute dress in bright colors?

So I'm going to a funeral this afternoon that I just realized is a Jewish ceremony. Anything I need to know? That sounds like a stupid question, but I like being prepared rather than surprised.
Edit: As far as I know, the widow (my friend) is not particularly devout, but I don't know about her husband or their family. It's just taking place at a cemetery.

Sending lots of strength and love your way, Liese. I'm glad you are finding time to take care of yourself as well.
Seriously, that's an undue burden? Is the government supposed to just figure things out without being notified? Craziness.
I believe the undue burden is not the effort required, but the fact that despite their clear intention to deny birth control coverage, there is still a way for their employees to get it. The psychological burden of knowing that some of their employees might be having non-procreative sex is just unbearable.

A minor moral quandary. A young man who talked to Hubby a lot for advice sent me a message on FB asking for my phone number so he could ask for some non-family advice. The problem is, I think this guy is a fairly despicable human being, but I socialized with him with Hubby. Maybe he's come to some sort of revelation that I could help him not be so despicable. But I don't want to talk to him. I think I'd rather just do this over FB messaging. I think I'll use the excuse of not-unlimited minutes and the problems of finding a convenient time to talk.
