Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

But, le n, at least yours does a debit card. I have to submit and get a check back two weeks later. Pain in the ass!

I've had a super exciting night of mopping the floor and cleaning the bathroom and remaking the twins bunk beds. I still have to go buy some food and a glass bowl. My life...it sure is exciting.

Also I spent 2 hours reconciling the cookie books. Jesus! We still have 21 boxes in inventory. And a cookie booth next weekend. I think I need to learn to be less controlly and let the cookie mom sweat all of the details. The problem is that kids at my school, which has no girl scouts of its own in that neighborhood, LOVE the cookies and always ask me for some. So I have a sort of weird supply of them.

Kat,

I would almost prefer that (and I did that - scanned in the receipts, etc.) because half the time I forget to use my debit card.

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

Our old insurance had an auto-submit thing, so that was pretty sweet. We'd just get checks in the mail. The debit card is not bad, once we got in the habit of using it.

I can do both, but with this stupid card, if it is over the balance, they accept it and then you start getting hit with fees for INSF. Past cards either declined (and you could submit for less reimb) or acted like a credit card and send you a bill for the difference at the end of the year, no interest. The latter was 2 years ago, it was nice.

I won't have the funds in my account to cover *just* the crowns until the end of this year. So pointless to use it.

Dana, I had that kind too! It was nice.

It's just such a racket, and gotten worse since they are looking at losing their profit margins. Single payer, goddamnit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am peering at the pictures of the box and reading three times to make sure they're not sneaking some stevia in to cause me pain.

Just click on the links in the For Cooking section of the product page. The orange, lemon, and lime on there are the cooking ones. And you don't have to look at the boxes, because the ingredients are on the page. The unsweetened lemon for drinking also doesn't have stevia.

Why do people not HR or your superiors care so passionately about what you are wearing?

I'm in IT! On the IT floor, not the exec floor or the business floor. No one comes down here if they can avoid it, and the visitors never do. It should be a non-issue, yet...

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

ita, I still don't get the biz formal reqs at your office. Aren't your clients internal? Why would they care? I've on,y seen one West Coast business formal place in the industry.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I am hoarding my last box of Tagalongs, Kat. By hiding it in the freezer behind the huge turkey taking up the whole bottom shelf. I want to go buy more. Thankfully I know no Girl Scouts here. And I intend to stay true to Grace until my littlest niecelet both gets into Girl Scouts and my family realizes that I'm buying them elsewhere.

I can't tell if I scratched under my nose, hurt it with rough-ish tissues or have a small pimple. But ouch. Once the cat gets off of my shins, I am going to go look and treat appropriately. Ah, Natter TMI.

I swear, I never got to that page. I started here and could get to individual products but not an overview page. I'm going to refill my cart from your link because I will just feel better about it.

"FREEGF" as a code makes me idly wonder if I am ordering lady companionship. At least it's free and hopefully totally consensual.
