I'd have thought a PayPal invoice would show at least one or two of the items being invoiced at first glance.

(Or that people would actually click on the invoice to find out what I'm invoicing them for. But, you know...that's effort.)

My post-Cap2 fic Hidden In Plain Sight is doing amazingly well for how few people have read it. Better even than Mako Mori And The Eleventy Billion Bridezillas. And that was doing pretty well.

Trying to marshal my thoughts to counter "we should make fat/unfit/unhealthy people pay higher health insurance premiums" as an argument. (Thank you, Tony Abbott. GDIAF.)

My counter-argument pretty much comes down to:
  • health and wellness is a very personal, very individual matter that needs to take into account the physical and mental state of the individual, their time-and-money situation, and the societal pressures that work upon them.

  • I do not trust an organisation that is there to manage their bottom line, or there to process people as a mass group, to care about the personal or individual situation.

I'm in a mildly bitchy mood today. Which is better than the mildly depressed state I was in yesterday.

Not liking my team lead at all right now.

Every time I have a problem caused by someone else, he's all "well, can't you just jimmy it to fix it?"

Every time someone else has a problem caused by someone else, he's all "well, the other people need to fix it!"

It's getting on my nerves.
