I"ll go all power of positive thinking and say yes, good times.

Now the oncologist here wants to keep me one more day to make sure my sodium levels are still improving.

The communication levels in cancer treatment seem remarkably haphazard.

"One more day" seems to happen a lot when one is in hospital for almost anything.

We got the word that today is a short day, hooray! Especially since I assumed it would be and did not bring any lunch.

I asked Tim if he was working a full day, and he said "Well, I might leave early. Like 4:30." Living on the edge there, bro.

t edit To be fair, he usually works until 6 or 6:30, and on Thursdays I'm lucky if he's home before 8 p.m. So for him, 4:30 *is* early.

Also, internet, I noticed that most sites have now gone to having the password field completely blind instead of at least showing the letters briefly. That seriously ups the wrong password factor.

I again hate the cloud. It once again won't sync. If the damn program is on the computer, you can just run it.

Yup. I mistype like a mofo, but I can usually catch it if I can see the letters at least as I am typing them. A lot of sites used to have a box you could check if you wanted to make your password visible but that seems to be out of fashion.

Which is why I hate the idea of cloud-based everything. My productivity should not be based on systems I have no control over.

Yeah, very hate passwords. And I have a password manager on my computer but inevitably I'm trying to log in to some obscure account on someone else's laptop or something and then it's not helpful because I have no idea the random characters it picked!

Also, I love the Billfold and this article amused me because I was like "hey, I know that sister she keeps referencing!": [link]

I'm actually in this dilemma, mostly out of laziness. We've been married over 2 years, and I go by Stephanie [birth name] [married name] professionally, but I haven't actually legally changed my name. I really ought to do it.

I'm not giving up my gmail address, though. (I also grabbed slbeckmeyer as a gmail address when we got engaged, though I don't use it.)
