I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

The Antarctic cold is not your friend, -t. Remember to come back.

Made it. Why so much paper, Accounting?

And now, stapling.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ugh on Webex about Benefits for 2018. We are losing LOTS this coming year.

No more HCA (which paid HALF our deductible). I think plans got reduced, so the employee +1 which I was on is gone and I now must do family which is DOUBLE the employee plan. I think what I had been on was between those two, I will have to check.

Drug coverage went up.

% of the health plan that we cover went up.

Ugh msbelle. I'm so sorry. What a mess.

Good thing health care is competitive and ruled by the market so you have all these choices! Oh wait, not you, your employer. Forgot who was important for a second.

I have not been hydrating to my usual standards and I am out of Prozac; if everyone Ascended or Raptured or whatever without me I don't know how I will get through the rest of the week.

I'm hoping that when/if the Rapture comes, we'll get ten minutes of shocked, I Really Didn't Expect That silence, then Zeus or someone will poke their head out and say "Sorry we had to do it that way, folks, but now that they're gone, let's start cleaning the place up."

-t, I assure you I'll be Left Behind right along with you guys. (If we're Ascending I'll tell the nanomachines they need to pick you up).

I remember that episode of Benson! I can't remember what he was arguing with the auditor about, just the tone of the guy's voice as he kept saying DISALLOWED!

Because books.

I'm here! And I have Prozac, actually.

I took a mental health day which mainly consisted of me sitting around having anxiety about how pissed off/bitchy my boss will be tomorrow, which really seems to defeat the point.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, sorry, Amy.

I have good news! My DVR'ed stuff came back! Phew.
