You maybe shouldn't be so gung-ho about AI transcription if you can't somehow stop Zoom from sending the full transcript to EVERYONE in the review meeting, even if some people were required to leave so their own performance could be discussed.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

We hit an unfun parenting milestone yesterday - Dylan hit another car while driving in a parking lot. Nobody was hurt and our car doesn't have a scratch on it (I think he was going maybe 5 or 6 mph), but he was really freaked out. And then on top of that, the other driver didn't want to get a police report or exchange insurance information, but suggested Dylan just give him $200 on the spot. Fortunately Dylan kept his head together and did not do that - he got the guy's phone number instead. So we called him, and again tried to exchange insurance information, and the guy said well how about $100. And did not offer to share the photos he took with us. Which leads me to believe there is exactly ZERO DOLLARS of damage to his car and maybe other reasons he doesn't want the police or insurance companies involved, so no thank you, other driver, we will not be handing over any cash to you.

Ugh, Jessica. That is so stressful, but good job to Dylan for keeping his head together.

Oh man, good on Dylan. Not only did I freak out my first accident, but every single one to date.

Oh that is stressful. Maybe he didn't have car insurance? I know when I dinged someone's car she wanted, I can't remember how much, she didn't want to get insurance involved but when she sent me am estimate it was like $100 or something..

I had an issue yesterday and had an anxiety kind of attack and I had some very mild self harm feelings which freaked me out. (It stated with feeling dizzy and stomach pains). So had M take me to the nearby ER. And I had a stomach CT with contrast, some other tests, blood work, and the ER Dr also wanted to do a head CT but I couldn't with the contrast.

She thinks what is going on might be 2 different things but that I probably have some GI issues even my gallbladder. She said she had to have hers removed and hers looked fine on ultrasounds etc .

So I'm at the Drs office and have a ton to talk to him about. Especially interment leave. That way if something else happens related I have more freedom to schedule appointments without having to wait for days off and stuff

Maybe he didn't have car insurance?

Yeah, this is my guess. In which case I'm still not going to just hand him a random chunk of change without at least a mechanic/body shop estimate.

That said, when the reverse happened to me about 15 years ago (hit by a woman who was ADAMANT about not getting the insurance companies involved), I absolutely should have taken the $500 cash she offered me instead of insisting on exchanging insurance info, since the damage to my car was only about $75 and it turned out her insurance was expired, so nothing was covered.

Oh, poor Dylan.

Later this afternoon I have my 1:1 with my boss, which means I need to pretend I didn't read the calibration meeting summary that was mistakenly sent out. Hahahahaha.

Nothing about me in the summary was a surprise, it's stuff I know I need to work on, but the temptation to ask "So if we were doing formal mid-year reviews, what would my score be?" is so strong.

Gah. I am not ready for the outdoor temperatures to be in the 80s F. I was just settling into my winter groove, and all of a sudden we've skipped Spring entirely and are having two days of Summer Preview.

I love the neighbourhood I live in now, and my housemates are two of my dearest friends, but my goodness do I miss my fog dragons and "only two days of above 80F every year" weather.

I read a post recently on my Mastodon feed that basically said "I wanted a device that lets me know my friends are all right and I got an anxiety rectangle that I keep compulsively refreshing" and I thought "if I want to know how my friends are doing, I just log into b.org." Not an original observation, I'm sure, but thank you all for posting the little things that keep us connected.

Attorneys who act like billing numbers are some silly bother I invented to irritate them should probably be thrashed.

I'm hip, Karl. Trudy, I could get a whip from work, but they'd like it.
