Zen, with that many points of uncertainty, I'd cancel and go with something more confirmable. But I also have your sort of anxiety. It cost me a few hundred dollars on my credit card to cancel my LA trip, but I don't really mind too much for the cessation of anxiety. I just turned on the furnace, and every odd smell and thump has me going "It just blew out" and "Is the house on fire?" I know it's dust in the vents and metal expanding and contracting, but still . . . When there's a miniscule-but-non-zero chance of something happening, my money's on not zero. I've had too many freakish things happen to me to relax. It's why I have professionals look over essential systems.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Oh yeah. Click on Cancel My Trip and the link goes 404. I'm calling them.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
In keeping with tradition, the office, and especially my floor, went all out on the halloween decorations this year. [link]
We had one child show up.

not your mom's socks.
DH's CT is tomorrow morning. I am university guest lecturing at the same time, 1 hour away. I have no idea how I'm going to get through tomorrow morning without checking my phone every ten minutes, and I offered to cancel, but he's all "no worries." but mostly I'm pulling for "find why this happened to him, but let it not be anything bad."
can I say congratulations to DH yet Strix?
The everlasting law librarian skelly is awesome Lee.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Same old, same old here.

Sox, much ~ma for your DH's CT. May everything be fine!
Reservation cancelled. Whew. Everything little thing about them made me nervous. Lesson learned, book through the freaking airline and pay the money for peace of mind. Also, I can use my points, which I totally forgot about.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I think that's just as well. Airfare.com gets a one-star rating (out of five) on Yelp, out of 124 reviews.

Cutting down anxiety is such a good call, Zen. Plus now points!
I lost most of today to a migraine. BUT, the IT problem didn't reoccur, not that I was on my work computer much.
CJ scared the crap out of me when he came home from school. He had a nasty looking cut over his left eye and he lifted his shirt to show lots of bruises and abrasions. As my eyes widened and my heart started going into overtime, he laughed and reminded me that he had volunteered at Health One (where he is taking his EMT course) this morning. He was a "motorcycle crash" victim and all that was just makeup. He was cut out of his clothes and assessed 30 different times (they supplied the clothes and then taped them back together between assessments). Of course, he didn't clean himself up before going to his psychology course (Psychology of Death and Dying). Oh child.
Speaking of which - Mac, dude. Not on.

JFC, Mac. No go. Sorry you've got to negotiate this, msbelle. Uhg.
