Though I think maybe my anxiety is ramped up pretty high today, because other people's chores shouldn't freak me out.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Now that healthcare drama is temporarily off the table, I think a lot of us suddenly have a lot of brainpower back that we'd devoted to worrying. My brain is searching around for major projects to tackle.

Aside from higher prices, this has led to providers pulling out of the exchanges leaving some with only one or even no providers. That is what the failing part is all about.
Worth noting that the ACA originally included a public option run by the Feds that would have corrected for this so that (especially rural) areas weren't completely at the mercy of the decisions of insurance companies. It was stripped out to appease Republicans.

Important question : does warming up a Lean Cuisine Tortilla Crusted Fish meal count as microwaving fish in the office?

Well dammit. I have officially stayed in my condo one year too long, as all the appliances are now starting to go. Fridge earlier this year, now washer & dryer. Water heater's been hanging on by a thread - the motor has to be restarted every few days.

Thanks, msbelle. That's the answer I was hoping for.
Ugh, brenda, I'm sorry. Time to go live in the cabin?

Jeeeesus, just took a shower (because I work at home and can shower at 2 if I want), and when I popped open the top of my shower gel, some of it flew directly into my right eye. I needed one of those emergency eyewash stations they have in labs.
I settled for turning the shower to cold and sticking my face under it a lot, but it still feels painful.
