* It's looking like oil companies have been in the practice of faking refinery fires or exaggerating the damage from smaller fires in order to dramatically increase prices for pure profit. An example of this it the 5.00+ gasoline prices in California this Summer. Still we subsidize them.

* My instinct to order all the PRNs was a good one. My last meds pickup kicked me into catastrophic coverage. December's meds are free! Yay! I got a bunch of things needing doing done today including half of the beginning of the month stuff. Of course an asshole stole my assigned spot while I was out doing stuff, forcing me to parallel park elsewhere and slog up the hill in the rain. I do not see how me being gone two hours signals that I don't live in my apartment and thus don't need parking to my neighbors. Unfortunately, they routinely do this at night so we can't have them towed. Sigh.

Squeeee!!! Just for grins, I clicked on your tea sampler link. (I was up at 5:30, what else was I going to do?) This started me on a roll of cruising tea sellers. You see, my favorite place to order tea went out of business about 5 years ago, and I've been pining for an affordable, interesting place to buy ever since. And thanks to your link, I now have a supplier! I ordered a bunch of tea and I'm so excited! Thank you, thank you!!! (it's enjoytea.com, in case you were wondering) Soon, I should be receiving: cherry-almond green tea, coconut rooibos, Lady Gray, Rose black tea, and a fruity tisane that sounds heavenly. I really appreciate the huge variety of things I find in your posts. xo
