I am working from home today, since my workplace was cyberattacked on Friday.

Whoa. Were they after information?

I had completely missed the rise of hooping. I was pathetic with a hula hoop when I was young and agile.

Because books.

Yikes, ita. If it gets bad, definitely go to urgent care. I don't know if the hepatitis can recur, but it's a chance you shouldn't take.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, no, ita! Urgent care sounds like the right move, I have to say.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Whoa. Were they after information?

Yep. They didn't get anything, but they had to take the whole system down and patch it, or something. Basically, it's a giant pain in the ass. Though much more so for the IT people who had to work through the three-day holiday weekend.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes, y'all.

ita, go see a doctor, please. I feel like my aunt's current medical problems have been exacerbated by her putting off going to the doctor at various points, and I attribute a lot of that to her chronic pain, so the new thing doesn't seem that bad, or whatever.

Shrift, what happened with the hotel?

Despite the fact that they were given two different credit cards from two different people who checked in and out at different times, they only charged one card.

Our wings are not tired.

I attribute ita (not going to urgent care) to her boss who Does Not Get It and gives her shot for time missed from the office.

Eta: fucking iPhone. When I type shit, I mean "shit". Not shot.

Eta more: I'm just furious on behalf of ita and everyone else who can't seek medical treatment because of supervisors who can't "see" the pain. Maybe I'm just touchy because my absolute star of an employee battles migraines. He's always so thankful that I'm supportive and flexible to his environmental needs, and I tell him I love too many people who battle this insane invisible killer. And, like ita, he's phenomenally good employee. People aren't robots.

Oh, for pete's sake. Bah. Par for the course, though: I recall the bar also screwed up Perkins' bill.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think urgent care might be a good choice for ita. I am a reluctant doctor goer myself, as I am also a hypochondriac, and it is very difficult to tell if I am really sick.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

What javachik said. And love to her for being an awesome boss who Gets It.
