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.

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

THANK YOU.

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

Poking my head in (1st day back at work) to catch up and say I was really hoping Dana's coworker said something about the dashboard light.
Love y'all! Later!

Our wings are not tired
In the ongoing saga of the house we've been trying to get, it looks like the shady agent did successfully get it into escrow with another buyer, so we most likely have lost the house. The only way this would change is if, by some miracle, the offer falls apart with the other buyer and the house drops out of escrow.
