I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Owww. Heal fast!

Can't imagine why, Dana. :)

Tino!!!!!

Teppy does that mean Tims scary medication is working?

not your mom's socks.

That is great news for Tim, Teppy!

Does anyone have resources for appealing insurance denials for treatment pre-orders - this is for a friend.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I figured out how to turn on voice recognition, though the results are unpredictable

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Teppy does that mean Tims scary medication is working?

I assume so. He still has pain, although it's improved somewhat. I'm hoping that maybe his inflammatory markers needed to improve before his pain will improve (or go away entirely).

I'm so sorry, Glamcookie.

Steph, I'm glad that things are looking better for Tim's health.

Glad to hear about Tim ... may his pain decrease.

For holiday cards - I'll often buy single ones; we have some fancy papergoods stores in the area. Or a museum gift shop - they tend to be pricey but classy.

Over the weekend a white supremacist group held their meeting in the Reagan Building in D.C. There were photos of them giving nazi salutes. They had a dinner in a restaurant's private room - booked late under a different name - and there were photos and tweets of nazi salutes and their general rejoicing. The restaurant management hadn't realized who they were until the protesters showed up; management has donated their profits for the day to the Anti-Defamation League. The Reagan Building isn't too far from the Holocaust Museum, which has issued a statement about the whole mess.

I have often bought cheap and cute holiday cards at the Canadian equivalent of TJ Max.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

msbelle, I'm sorry. I wish he'd just stop with the teenage bullshit and acknowledge how amazing you are.

Teppy, that's great news!

Dana, I hope everything is healing well. Please don't try to do too much at once. My sister didn't take it easy and it's like she never had the surgery, and is refusing to get it done on the other hand now.

Glam, I didn't see whatever you posted, but I'm sorry.

I'm so tired, y'all. Of everything. I talk and talk to people, F2F, until I'm blue in the face, and it doesn't matter. I get shit for wearing a safety pin, and not wearing one. Someone took me to task for "ignoring the results of the election" on my Facebook, and that I'm not doing everything I can to fight the good fight. Am I wrong for wanting to keep my wall drama free? I engage elsewhere and in person, which I guess isn't visible enough for her. How are we supposed to change things if we're too busy beating up on our own people for not doing "enough?"
