I love my bifocals. There isn't really a line other people can see, so my glasses just look like regular glasses. But I can do things like read, thread needles, and other close work so much more easily now. They did take some getting used to, though.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

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.

The ophthalmologist told me to be very careful walking down stairs when I first get them, because if I look down through the close-up lens part, I could trip and die a humiliating death. (Okay, her recommendation stopped after the word "trip," but the rest was implied.)

Doctors try to avoid saying things about humiliating deaths. I think it's in the Hippocratic Oath Addenda.

Not my Awesome Doctor. He mocks me on the regular. (But I also mock him, so it's fair. If he didn't mock me, I'd have to stop seeing him. I can't wait to see what he says about my 2 months of IBS on Monday.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, you guys are awfully good at helping people write their self-evaluations -- can you help me write one for someone else? She's so great and kind of leaning out a little in the coming year, so it's tough to come up with three areas for her to work on.

Leaning out? So...she'll need to focus on prioritizing, communicating, and maybe delegating?

Am I crazy, or is there no way to see the discussion here? [link]
I think you're supposed to click the link to listen to the interview rather than there being a transcript to read.

It is a link to join an online discussion though? So you can comment, but not see other people's comments?? I am confused.
