I got coffee.
My onerous task is to badger HR again, and I just don't want to. They haven't replied yet to yesterday's passive-aggressive email.
Tara: 'Your One-Stop Spot to Shop for Lots of New-Age and Occult Items.' Catchy. Giles: Think so? Tara: Uh huh. In a... hard to say sorta way.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I forget where I heard this (and what country it was) but someone European was saying that if one person went bankrupt in their country due to medical bills, it would be a huge scandal.
There was a PBS special called Sick Around the World or something to that effect. I forget if it was Sweden or Japan that said that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm thinking Sweden. I seem to recall it was a Scandinavian country.

Switzerland, where they held a public referendum on the question of switching to a semi-public health services system (the services are provided by non-profits who get paid by the government, IIRC). Ten years later, even those who were furiously opposed to the switch think it's wonderful.
I suspect the special is streaming on the PBS website: it's really really good (and very depressing for Americans).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My provocateuse tumblr just got reblogged by its first fuckyeah tumblr. I feel like it's a birthday or something. Also, apparently everyone has a fuckyeah. Sucks to be you if you don't have one dedicated to you.

I have no umph to face any of my more onerous tasks right now, having just come out of a 4 hour grading meeting. Bleh. Can I count the meeting as an onerous task?
