You can always find people with complaints, especially coming off a conservative government that's been trying to slash funding and stir up discontent. No Canadian I've ever met would get within a mile of the US system.
Xander: Look who's got a bad case of Dark Prince envy. Dracula: Leave us. Xander: No, we're not going to "Leabbb you." And where'd you get that accent, Sesame Street? "One, Two, Three - three victims! Maw ha ha!"

I have voted! Now I'm on my way to a salon for a Madam President mani-pedi and a glass of champagne. (Was going to do it the other way around but time was tight and I didn't want to risk missing voting today.)

Also, under HRC, we get the first woman POTUS.
Which seems to get remarkably little attention.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Timelies,
Endoscopy went fine, though they were running behind, which meant I was sitting in the pre-op room for almost two hours before they finally rolled me back.
My mentioning that I remembered the previous two procedures apparently inspired them to really crank up the sleepy juice, because despite being it 4 hours and nap later my brain is still completely useless.
GERD meds are doubled for now and I've got an additional diagnosis to Google when I can brain again.

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.
I hope the new diagnosis is useful, Kalshane.

Right now Princeton Consortium is giving 84% odds that the Senate will flip. That would be AMAZING.
This would be good for finally filling the empty SCOTUS seat.

Everytime you guys talk about health insurance, I mentally hug our healthcare system a little bit tighter. Not that there aren't problems.
It also helps that I have supplemental insurance & a good doctor who I have had a long relationship with.

My coworker is trying to talk me into reinventing myself as a horseshoe crab rancher. Pretty successfully, I am intrigued. I'll have to check the municipal code, but I don't think that's expressly forbidden in my city.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Horseshoe crabs are tremendously cool.
