I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I can try to answer, Zen, since we just signed up in August.

In case anyone is worried, we're fine here in Dallas. Apparently there were tornados, but we slept right through any problems.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Thanks, Dana, and I'm glad you all are all right! I'm trying to figure out if I should take COBRA or look for other insurance that might be cheaper. I think I just need to find an insurance broker to walk me through this.

We stuck with COBRA because we'd already met our deductible for the year (though that got reversed later, which, what can you say) and because the plan we're on covers prescriptions very well, which is a large part of our costs. Definitely going to look at a new plan in November though, when open enrollment starts.

Job~ma, Maria!

Glad to hear you are okay, Dana!

Part of my brain is trying to formulate a hypothesis that not-terribleness is nowhere dense on the continuum of humanity along any axis and I wish it would stop. Also have Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy stuck in my head and that could stop, too. Not enough coffee in the world.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Glad you're OK, Dana! Hoping the same goes for msbelle?

Good luck, Maria!

msbelle should have been well clear.

Oh great -- of course I don't know the specifics of the local geography!

No, of course, no reason you should. It's just funny, because they were pretty close to us, and we had no idea.
