Theo, that sounds great! Fingers crossed!
I like gerunds, but I can't imagine there is much to argue about.
I seriously can't remember what the argument was about. I just remember that it happened, and it got heated.
Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

Our wings are not tired.
Raise your hand if you just looked at your calendar to see if you're free then.

I think gerunds might actually be before my time! Or I was an asshole.

The status is NOT quo.
Glad it worked out, Kat.
I have no idea what the gerund argument was, but I'm just going to let that lie. I don't have the bandwidth for kerfuffles anymore.
Yay pt job for Theo!
I'm a purist, you need trees. We don't have a hammock because currently we only have one suitable tree. Eventually the other palm tree will grow, at that time it can have a hammock.
It's cute that you think you get to make a decision about this.

I think that sums it up for a lot of us. But I didn't kerfuffle much, just ate the popcorn.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Good luck, Theodosia.
I've spent a couple days managing our company nurse's anxieties about dealing with a doctor who may or may not be an asshole but who for sure does not mesh well with our nurse. Also I think she has low-level ptsd over the death of a person in another house who died after a couple of days of respiratory distress that staff did not bother to chart about or seek medical attention. I keep having to reassure the nurse that in the case of the person I requested ~ma for, we have thorough documentation, numerous consultations with doctors, and proof that we are carrying out the instructions of those doctors plus other forms of care; even if we never succeed in getting to the bottom of this person's condition, that is for lack of trying. I may have to give her the "we are responsible for the methods we use; we are not responsible for the results," talk.

Connie, I'm pretty sure your phone will be involved, sorry. The way it works for me is, I let Lyft access my PayPal account. When I request a Lyft the payment for the ride is charged to PayPal. Then the phone shows me the driver coming to me, along with a photo of the driver and a description of their car. Once I'm at my destination I get a message from Lyft asking me to rate my driver and letting me tip them (if I want). The tip also comes out of PayPal.
