Re: Employees forced to pay for Paid Medical Leave program

Rachael1013 — Thu, 03 Jan 2019 17:47:11 -0000

The employee portion of this is 0.253% of gross pay. If you make $5000 a month ($60,000 a year) you will only be paying $12.65 a month into this. Or approximately $6 a paycheck if you're paid twice a month.

Re: Matters of the eyes, part aw hell no

What the ever loving hell? I had a doctor do this when my son was little - told me he needed eye surgery when he actually didn't at all. Referred us to Children's Hospital and we found it he is basically all right. I'm sorry this happened, BUT the good news is that you are an AWESOME mom and a powerful woman who knows how to get things done, so Marlo has the best chance in the world.

I get it, I just think that a lot of people that call themselves the 12th man are wearing sweats on their couch or going through Starbucks with a 12th man flag.

Thanks! I have made it 20 days! Exciting, considering how few times I posted in 2013 before November. Bellingham is pretty great!

Nooooooooooooo! Sad Panda. Honestly, this is one of my very favorite websites in the world. I'm sorry to see it go. I remember being excited when it started, which I guess means I have been here the whole time? OMG where did the last 7 years go?? I hope that maybe before you take it down, you'll give us a list with anywhere else we can find you guys so we can continue to read what you've got to say.

I'm back! :-) It's been a while. I have never heard of Taco Dip, but people here like to eat 7 layer dip with beans, sour cream, salsa, lettuce, cheese etc.

I will definitely ask my doctor if that is an option, especially if I go to my next appointment and nothing has changed. It definitely sounds much preferable to a shunt if it's an option. I understand they have to do another MRI-type test and measure the venous pressure?

I actually have that video! It is hardcore, but I like it because it is intense and quick.

Re: What I Learned About Myself After Seeing The ‘Kidz Bop 23′ Commercial 900 Times

Rachael1013 — Sun, 06 Jan 2013 00:47:19 -0000

I have just sunk to the level of watching a Kidz Bop commercial on purpose (vom) because I was too curious about the Gangnam Style cover. It was just the chorus. I hate this music with a passion... if it's inappropriate, how about just don't let your kid listen to it??? Or buy the radio version?? Ugh.

This sounds like a book that might make me cry a lot.

Re: The Walking Dead Recap: Season 3, Episode 4 – “Killer Within”

Rachael1013 — Tue, 06 Nov 2012 01:43:01 -0000

I seriously felt like I needed a Xanax after watching this. I was totally (and perhaps inexplicably?) bummed by T-Dogs death and his sacrifice for Carol - which, no one is dead until we see the zombie walk or whatever, right? You never know. Though I don't care that much about her to tell the truth. I was totally creeped out by the Andrea/Merle flirting... gross. And I am wondering if they are going to get into any of the horrificness that was the gov in the books (specifically re: Michonne).

I really can't explain why I love them so much, but I am pretty sure that it all goes back to that sloth video, which will forever be one of the best things I have ever seen, ever.

Re: Post Traumatic Soundtrack Disorder: When Perfectly Innocent Songs Go Creepy

Rachael1013 — Thu, 27 Sep 2012 18:09:43 -0000

So... I am getting divorced which means I live alone now. I watched one promo for this season of AHS and am not sure I can watch it anymore! Last year it started out scary then I felt like it got more mild or just creepy, but this looks SCARY. I can't watch that crap alone in my house at night!

Re: Post Traumatic Soundtrack Disorder: When Perfectly Innocent Songs Go Creepy

Rachael1013 — Thu, 27 Sep 2012 18:08:51 -0000

"Beyond the Sea" was actually totally creepy for me before Lost because of The X-Files and the episode (of the same name) in which Scully's Dad died and that creepy ass guy in prison sung that song to her.

Re: Look Alive, Smartypants – ‘The Master’ Opens This Weekend

Rachael1013 — Sun, 16 Sep 2012 22:57:09 -0000

There is nothing about this movie that makes me want to see it. At all. All I could think about watching the previews is how I hate watching Woody Allen movies because I can tell how stupid he thinks I am.

Re: A Third ‘X-Files’ Movie Is Making Me Feel Confusing Feelings

Rachael1013 — Thu, 13 Sep 2012 13:00:41 -0000

I think it would be hilarious if they made a dramedy about Mulder and Scully having some suburban life. I am a HUGE X-Files Fan (dude... my license plate says Mulder. I'm a dork) and I will go see and X-Files movie regardless, but that last one was odd.

Um, that photo of Archer in his jammies hugging his sister just made me burst into tears. You have a beautiful family, so much love!

I do not understand why this happened. I know he's famous, but who decided putting an 82 year old on stage to ramble on to an empty chair for 10 minutes was a good idea? I feel BAD for him because it totally reminded me of my father in law and how hard it is to even listen to him try to talk sometimes. Gross. I do think the Obama tweet is the best thing ever though. Also, Wil Wheaton.

I have a hard time believing anyone could be that ignorant. I am constantly astounded by people's seeming lack of ability to do a Google search. IT'S NOT THAT HARD.

So... um... I am getting divorced which means I live by myself most of the time (with my kids). I am not sure I am going to be able to keep watching this show given that I will be in the house alone and it will be after dark.... crud...

That made me crack up just by reading it. If I had seen that, it would have made me laugh every time I thought about it forever.

WHAT IS THAT? IS it an illusion? That is crazy.
