Grrr.. I just discovered I'm still being charged for my NC car insurance. I emailed the agent and will call tomorrow on my lunch break. This is really frustrating.

That's terrible, askye.

I'm 100% fine apart from the stress.

Mad Skilz!

I 100% thought I would not make it out okay.

Truly lucky I did driving courses. It just builds muscle memory.

If anyone remembers the saga of 'Cass was in a truck with a veterinarian when a tow truck hit a motorcyclist in front of us and basically severed his leg almost off but was super lucky that he had an kick-ass Army vet behind him so he has a metal leg and, most importantly, a pulse.' about two and a half years ago? Same intersection. Also I love every single time that man posts on Facebook because I thought he was going to die in front of me. I will not be posting this on Facebook.

Thanks everyone.

I don't know about the post office these days. I sent two cards early in September and they have both been returned- finally- with canceled stamps and a sticker stating the envelope is not deliverable as addressed and cannot be forwarded. It looks okay to me.... first name, last name, number, street, city, zip. WTF? I don't have the neatest handwriting in the world, but for mailing envelopes I make sure it's legible, complete and large written with a black pen.

I'm gonna put the returned card into a bigger envelope and try again, but this is disheartening. They fail to deliver but cancel the stamp anyway.

Pretty sure I would vote for John Rogers for President:

Cass! OMG! So glad you're OK.

msbelle, I am sorry. Health~ma. And generally, health~ma in every direction.

(Fun fact: I'm a 35 years old in a grad school. I can spell lots of words, including long and complicated words, but every isn't one of them. I keep writing it evrey, every time. Yay spellcheck).

Now that you mention it, I pronounce every as evrey. Huh.

Case, I'm glad you're ok, even if your tires aren't.

Yikes, Cass. I had a bit of an adrenaline rush just reading about it. Yay skillz.

I don't know about the post office these days.

Yeah, I've had things returned that were 100% fine too, and things that take forever. I still get checks in the mail from most of my customers because checks mean no fees for credit cards, but some have just disappeared. I suspect they have morale issues there.

Yay spellcheck

My favorite computer advancement of all time, says one who wrote most of her college papers on a typewriter. It taught me how to spell words I misspelled for years. What I don't get (glares at DH) is why people don't activate it for all writing, or do they just ignore the squiggly line?

I had to add yay ages ago to my dictionary because it always got a squiggly line and I disagreed.

Pretty sure I would vote for John Rogers for President:

A platform worth endorsing.

My local mail has been better than ever -- I just picture the local PO people sitting in meetings saying, "Fuck DC, we're going to do our jobs!"

Pretty sure I would vote for John Rogers for President:

100%

Pretty sure I would vote for John Rogers for President:

Works for me. John Rogers 2028!
