What Plei said/asked above. I've recently read some very reassuring things about quality of health care in Canada.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

You can always find people with complaints, especially coming off a conservative government that's been trying to slash funding and stir up discontent. No Canadian I've ever met would get within a mile of the US system.

I have voted! Now I'm on my way to a salon for a Madam President mani-pedi and a glass of champagne. (Was going to do it the other way around but time was tight and I didn't want to risk missing voting today.)

Also, under HRC, we get the first woman POTUS.
Which seems to get remarkably little attention.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Timelies,
Endoscopy went fine, though they were running behind, which meant I was sitting in the pre-op room for almost two hours before they finally rolled me back.
My mentioning that I remembered the previous two procedures apparently inspired them to really crank up the sleepy juice, because despite being it 4 hours and nap later my brain is still completely useless.
GERD meds are doubled for now and I've got an additional diagnosis to Google when I can brain again.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I hope the new diagnosis is useful, Kalshane.

Right now Princeton Consortium is giving 84% odds that the Senate will flip. That would be AMAZING.
This would be good for finally filling the empty SCOTUS seat.

Everytime you guys talk about health insurance, I mentally hug our healthcare system a little bit tighter. Not that there aren't problems.
It also helps that I have supplemental insurance & a good doctor who I have had a long relationship with.

My coworker is trying to talk me into reinventing myself as a horseshoe crab rancher. Pretty successfully, I am intrigued. I'll have to check the municipal code, but I don't think that's expressly forbidden in my city.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Horseshoe crabs are tremendously cool.
