I would take a cat that falls in my lap!

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.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

THANK YOU.

I'm sure it has a real meaning, but that just sounds like something pulled out of one's ass.

Stray cat update (he's a ladies' cat!): coworker found a neighbor to take it in, so no kitty for me.
