I can't believe, and yet am not surprised, that CBS is making its own Sherlock Holmes show.

Indeed.

Invoking the FPC: I just took a tea bag from an upper shelf, but it was torn, and I ended up with little bits of decaffeinated tea all over me--and in my eye.

OW.

Aha! Strike against the tea bag technology!

Of course, I would have instead knocked the entire tin on my head--I can't decide if open so messy is worse, or closed so heavy enough to really bruise.

Does that make you feel any better?

No, I thought it might not.

Strike against the tea bag technology!

Hah. I think it's hard to get decaf without bags. So instead I took it as a warning and used some of the ridiculously expensive tea my brother & SIL got me for Christmas.

Ridiculously expensive: $25 for 4 oz. Even if it does say you can re-use the leaves a couple of times, that's just nuts.

Ah, ita !, I hope for the best for your mother. Stressy.

For people who pay for a portion of their health insurance each month through work, does anyone pay more than $100/month?

t raises hand

I pay about $500 per month. It will go down at the end of the year to about $400 per month.

for just you coverage or family coverage?

Family coverage. The $500 includes June - Sept payments from last year that I am paying for through this year because I don't get paid year round. Medical, dental, and vision. $10 co-pays for visits, $50 ER or Urgent care visit, $20 - $40 on scripts.

Consuela: Upton Tea has decaf.

Congrats on the job msbelle! And MUY congrats on the benefits!

ita, sounds like your question was answered here--I love that about this site--but if you want me to email Becca still, I'd be happy to.

I am so tired I'm bleary. I think I need to go to bed early. I keep going to bed at midnight, waking multiple times, and then getting up with the alarm at 6:30. It sucks.

I am pretty sure I pay more than $100, but that's coverage for the whole family.
