I was prescribed levaquin (another fluoroquinolone) when I had bronchitis several years ago. After picking them up from the pharmacist and seeing the black box warning, I was hesitant to take them because I have chronic tendinitis due to short Achilles tendons. I took it anyway, thinking that the risk couldn’t be that…

Maybe? When I’m there, I say it quickly and in a deeper voice (which is kind of weird). It’s almost more like how I’d normally say Surrey.

I only need to be in London for about five minutes before every other sentence is “sorry”. Oddly, I even pronounce the word differently when I’m there.

Another day, another reason to be ashamed to be an American.

Add fees are getting really bad in the apartment industry as well. I looked at a complex in Austin that charged a mandatory $75 amenities fee each month. Plus a parking fee and valet garbage fee. What is the $1500 rent for a tiny one-bedroom apartment going towards? I drive by that complex a few times a week, and the…

If I were the restaurant owner, I would have let Huckabee stay on the condition that she come into the kitchen and have meaningful conversations with every person responsible for making and serving her dinner about how this administration’s policy are affecting them and their families. It might not change her mind,…

I always thought it was odd that she was a doctor but also at home when the kids left for school and when they got home. She’s supposed to be an anesthesiologist, so maybe her schedule is more flexible because she likely wouldn’t be seeing patients in an office.

Have you watched the most recent season? I think a lot of these were central to the last few episodes.

I had a friend with two kids tell me she was jealous because I could do whatever I want because I’m single and don’t have kids. I had to point out that I can’t do “whatever I want whenever I like” because I have still have responsibilities. Like work. And everyday chores. And helping care for my aging mother. I…

I’m pretty sure my mom would call it “midwest yankee chic”.

It kind of reminds me of Der Twister at Fiesta Texas (but with more axis). There aren’t many rides I won’t do a second time, but it’s one of them. I felt like I was going to bang my had into the concrete below every time it flipped around.

It’s because this org only focuses on dietary and physical activity risk factors. Smoking and sun exposure are also noticeably missing.

This is report is specific to diet and physical activity risk factors. It doesn’t include tobacco, the biggest modifiable risk factor, or sun exposure. A closer look into this organization shows it’s focused on cancer prevention related to diet, weight and activity. There are other ways to decrease  cancers risk that…

I like Samantha Bee and agree with her viewpoint and opinions most of the time. However, I think she does take the low road a lot with mocking people she disagrees with. She makes a lot of jokes belittling people’s appearances, when she could just be digging into their awful actions and deeds. Over the past year, I…

I’ve been buying Liberty tana lawn fabric remnants each time I go to London for the past several years. I’m using them to make a hand-pieced scrappy quilt (English paper piecing 1" hexagons). I’ve been at it for a year and still have about a fourth of the way to go, but it’s a great companion to watching TV.

They must be rolling this out slowly because I’ve yet to get a picture of my package after being delivered by an Amazon delivery person.

I’ve had Amazon delivery people mark something as delivered before it was. I received a text saying it was delivered right before I left work for the day. When I made it home 15-20 mins later, there was no package. I went down to my apartment leasing office, and it wasn’t there either. While I was on the phone with…

After Albert’s death, Queen Victoria walked two of her daughters down the aisle at their weddings, so the royal family hasn’t always insisted on a male walking the bride down the aisle.

I’ve always anthropromorphized numbers. In my mind, some numbers are friends (like 3 and 7), and others are loners (like 28).

I love this show, too. I think it’s been the perfect example of being able to have two characters in a workplace romance without it becoming the main focus of the show. They did the right thing by not dragging out the flirtation too long and then not making the show all about Jake and Amy. It’s like the anti-Cheers.
