Greetings from Urgent Care!
I have hearing loss in my left ear, (I hope) due to ear wax. My PCP couldn't fit me in until Tuesday, but I didn't want to wait that long, because, you know, hearing loss, so here I am.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh dear, Tom! I hope they can fix you right up.
If you bring it home and it's just not going to work for you to keep it for whatever reason, you can bring it to the shelter, right?
True, true!
I think of you're asking the question the answer is yes, Jesse.
Also true. I keep thinking, "Why do all my friends just have cats drop in their lap?? I would take a cat that falls in my lap!" So I guess I will take this cat and see how it goes!

It's falling in your lap after bouncing into a previous lap.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Yay, cat!
Yikes, Tom. I hope it is an easy fix.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
BP can be elevated b/c of stress. And a lot of people have white-coat hypertension (when your BP is normal at home, but elevated when a medical professional takes it, again from stress).
It's worth keeping an eye on it, but you may not be in Lang territory yet.

After a whole lot of irrigation, my ear canal is clean, the eardrum is intact, and my hearing is back. So, yay! Also, ewwww.

Just wanted to take a moment to recognize and honor Jesse as a leader of our community.

One of the French-speaking product managers has sent me edits, and one sentence includes the phrase "a posteriori." This is a first.
