Now I'm looking at an EOB with the description "Cock-Up."
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Looks like it's for the wrist brace I got between the carpal surgery diagnosis. Which is apparently costing me $60+ instead of the $15 they told me at the office. Grrrrr.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That is a cock up!
I have literally no idea how to tell what mattress descriptions mean, I think.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Yeah, I think we're going to have to go bounce around on some mattresses in person just to get an idea of what we are actually looking for.
I'm pretty easily happy; D will be the decider. I slept on a futon I bought in 1992 until 2009.

I still miss my waterbed. I'll be pouting about that until I get to move onto a boat.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I just drove by a Cleo's on my lunch break that was having a big closeout sale, complete with full mattress outside on the sidewalk.
Mine is about 20 years old (minus the four years I almost never slept on it in Memphis), so probably in the ballpark of ready for replacement.
In other news, having same-sized blue cans of tuna AND cheap cat food in your car makes afternoon snacking an adventure.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am so tired of authors who are outraged that their articles are -- gasp! -- edited. This one said "This has not been my experience with other medical journals," and all I could think (but I'm not allowed to say) is "Well, some medical journals have pretty low standards. Maybe you should submit your paper to them." Jesus, they get SO offended at being edited. What on earth did they think was going to happen? It explicitly says in the Author Information page that articles are edited in accordance with the AMA Style Manual. What they hell do they think that means? (Actually, I'm sure they don't even read the Author Information, but that's not my problem.)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Strix, I highly recommend memory foam, especially with pain issues. But you should probably go to a store and check some out, even if you're not buying from them.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
I have very pleasant memories of flirting both with meara and with Laura. I recommend the experience heartily.
On crushes, I have no advice. In the early years of this board, I often felt like I was crushing on the entire board at once. Pleasant, but could get overwhelming.

Hey, Karl... where is my flirtatious font?
Memory foam is awesome, and you can also just get a topper for that.
