Best wishes for your sister, Hec. Do you know which chemo is being used?
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

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.
Hell, Hec, that's too much. May the chemo be effective, and may Emmett stay healthy.
smonster, I want to thump your boss with something heavy, say, a cluestick. (In "Couldn't have happened to more worthy people" news, Corey Lewandowski and the owners of Uline have tested positive.)
Steph, that is a relief; good job, Tim's immune system.
A very happy birthday to Jessica, and a happy anniversary to sj!
It wouldn't be Buffistas if we didn't find some way to make this all about pronunciation and/or grammar. I love you all so much.
. . . is pretty much where I'm at today.

Ugh. Called the bank, they again claimed they don't have my fax yet, but it takes two full days to show up in the system, and Wednesday was a holiday, so they won't know until later tonight if they've received it. ...and if they haven't, I'm supposed to send it again and wait two more days? Jesus. They also claim the reason they denied my claim is that there was a "slight delay in fraud reporting". The first charge is dated 10/13, I noticed and reported on 10/29. Therefore they deny it. WTF. THIS lady told me to file a police report (the first people didn't ever mention that) so I've done that but it takes 5 more days to get a case number. This is ridiculous. The bank lady was like "it's not US that's denying your claim, see, it's that we have to ask CashApp for it back and they don't believe us!" BULLSHIT.

Do you know which chemo is being used?
I don't. But it's a long course - 12 weeks.

You guys, I am so sad about amyth that I don't even have any words about it. I'm really glad to read all of your words.

I'm so sorry to hear about the additional health troubles of those near and dear to us. I found out yesterday my one aunt who still lives in my hometown has come down with Covid-19, but apparently her symptoms aren't too severe and she's feeling somewhat better.
In other 2020-sucks-donkey-balls news, I now have a THIRD sick pet from whatever is causing this gingivostomatitis outbreak, so I live in the Plague Cat-house. At least Molly has recovered enough to turn into a furry buzz saw and escape into hiding when I tried to gather her up for her vet appointment this morning, so I think she'll be out of the woods soon.

Happy birthday Jesse! Happy anniversary sj and teacup guy!

They're aim-ith, aim-ch, aski (as in "aye").
We have construction going on. Our front stairs (which have been rickety for a while, and actively dangerous since last year) are being completely taken out and replaced. This is good! Loud power tools and banging noises are not so good. The cats and I have objections.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Just got a call from my niece. My sister has Stage 3 breast cancer and just started chemo.
Oh Hec, I am so sorry.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Hec, that is just too much. I hope the chemo is effective for her.
Jesse - Nov 12, 2020 11:30:00 am PST #29326 of 30019
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy birthday Jesse!
Thank you, but it's Jessica!
I'm so sorry to hear about your sister, David.
