Byron! Silly boy. Glad you came home.

sj, I don't think it will *hurt* you. I just think it won't be as effective. It also depends on *how* expired it is -- my BiL the pharmacist says the dates listed are usually incredibly early for CYA reasons.

It expired in January, because I'm an idiot. You actually have to take the little part with the medicine out to see the expiration date, and I haven't thought to check in a while. I did use three sprays instead of two because I wasn't sure if it was working enough, but that could have also been because I was freaking out.

If it only expired in January, it's probably fine. And like I said, it won't *hurt* you, but pay attention to whether you're getting relief or not, because Breathing Is Important!

Thanks, Amy. It definitely worked enough that I am breathing regular now. I'm going to call my doctor tomorrow to get a new one. I should be fine between now and then.

This thread's nearly dead, did we decide on a title?

I have to wear pj's to work all week.

I need to figure out a plan to do this, other than working from home.

HSA: We did this for years and it was great, but none of us had any ongoing health issues and my client doctors never charged us. We had the security of major medical coverage in case something bad happened and the savings account building up for any deductibles. I don't think it would work with regular medication or doctor visit expenses. A bit of math of what you would be spending per month out of pocket compared to the savings in the premiums would give a good picture.

Rock on, Byron! (but leave mom a note next time before you take off)

We have an appeal of my son's suspension tomorrow morning. He wrote a very articulate statement of his points, better than any essay he has ever produced. What will be will be. Just seems whack to suspend a kid 10 days with 12 days left of school when he has never been in a fight in his life, doesn't cause trouble, no drugs. Whatever. I just want him to learn to use the process and system in the future when he has issues with a teacher.

I think we bsconsensed on

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness

To continue the kid ramble, when you are 6'5" at 16 you are going to get noticed with good or bad results. I tried to warn him that being in the right doesn't always make a lick of difference. We'll see how it goes.

Justice ~ma to your boy, Laura. Sounds like he's a fighter.

How are you feeling, GC? Last time I flew by you thought you might be coming down with something.

Still kind of crappy (headachey, maybe feverish). I'm in class and looking forward to getting home soon (ends at 8).
