Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

I take back all the bad things I've been saying about my LG Phoenix phone. Even though it spontaneously reboots about twice a day.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am watching GBBO episodes, excellent for calming one in these stressful times, and I am about ready to cut a bitch for a Cornish pasty.

Our wings are not tired

Today is not fun. I'm in the process of severing the employment of one of my full time staff. This is the really hard part of being the owner.

Ooh, that sucks, ND.

I was planning to try to use up as many benefits as possible before the end of the year (because I've already hit my out of pocket max) but then I realized I'm sure I'll hit the OOP max again next year (this year the in-network max is $3250. That seems like a lot, to me. Then again, my year's medical bills have now topped $100K)

I'm sorry, ND. It really does suck.

Eeep, meara! How is the move back home going? Adapting okay to the peg leg life?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am way behind in everything at work and am jumping from one thing to another to get somewhat caught up on things hoping no one notices. Boss' boss noticed on one thing so that got called out and sucks majorly. I'm spiraling and want to cry and crawl in bed.

How much can I get done in 2 hours??? The race is on.

You can do it, msbelle!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You can do it, msbelle! I also got called out on a thing this week, and am desperately trying not to let it throw me off.

Then again, my year's medical bills have now topped $100K

Holy crap.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

When Gary gets home we're going to load up his car and head to Philcon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

We've spent the last couple of hours trying to figure out whose benefits to be on. Good problem to have, I know, but the next person who bitches to me about socialized medicine is going to get a fucking earful.
