Laura, I'm sorry for your loss.
Cindy, that is so infuriating.
Sophia, does that mean you passed inspection? If so, YAY! I'm so glad all your hard work paid off.
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
I may have been a bit pissy in Slack talking about our open enrollment (we're switching insurance providers again). Maybe.
Very similar conversations have been had in Hangouts. (Why the bleeping bleep are we switching, we just did that last year, whose good idea was this?)
amyth, I'm never going to be Team Yay Kidney Stones, but I'm grateful that your doctor's thoroughness found the leukemia before you were symptomatic.

I passed the Landlord's inspection, and now they will schedule the city. I think things that I might not pass on are more the landlord's responsibility than mine- like once they made him put up a railing on my attic stairs and add a carbon monoxide detector.

Jesus Christ. Speaking of insurance drama: just got a bill from the hospital for something they did in April of 2018!! They suddenly want me to send $860??! From a year and a half ago?? They were like "Oh well your insurance re-processed the claim THIS April" (after originally doing so last July?)

Because books.
I'm sorry, Laura. And Cindy!
Our work is going crazy and they had to put off open enrollment for a week "to give more people time to prepare for the increase in price".
I just got a notice from Health Marketplace that if I want to keep the same coverage I had this year, I can expect the price to go way up. Yay? I would totally just find the cheapest, but I'm all set up with my doctor, who has been tracking my diabetes care for five years. I don't want to have to change now.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Time is always on your side with the earliest detection, so here's hoping this is a sign that things will go as well as can be hoped.

Our wings are not tired.
Found out a bit more about my cousins. The sisters died across the country from each other within hours of each other, and neither knew about the other's passing. Well, not in any way that we could see.

Very similar conversations have been had in Hangouts. (Why the bleeping bleep are we switching, we just did that last year, whose good idea was this?)
Were the poor people who are in charge of communicating the changes in Hangouts? 'Cause they were in Slack. (I feel bad, but not really.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Hugs and ~ma for all who want/need them.
