As long as he doesn't mind competing with everyone else in Boston who gets the same idea.

Fortunately "a couple hours from Boston" is a pretty damn big radius.

It wasn't problems at the destination that I was thinking of, it was problems at the origin.

I don't know what Boston traffic is like, but I assume that if half the city just happens to, uh, go for coffee at the same time, the traffic'll be worse than usual.

Classic was in some weird... super-passive-aggressive state today. He's better now. But... he didn't like it. He probably would have called you all stickpickers.

He's in a better mood now though.

So my pulmonologist was very unhelpful and "not my problem" when I went to see him the other week.

Fortunately, my ENT was much more helpful, and referred me to a neurology lab to go get a dizziness test.

I did not know there were such things as dizzy tests.  Given that I have been suffering from dizziness, it seems like a pretty fucking obvious thing to recommend for me.  I am grateful to my ENT for pointing me in that direction and irritated with all my other doctors for not doing so when it seems so very obvious.

So I've got that tomorrow.

Haven't actually had a bad dizzy spell in weeks (just a few minor ones -- I'm definitely beginning to think they're stress-related, as they've been coming right after I heard horrible things on the news).  That might actually be better; seems like a test would work better from zero than if I went in and was already experiencing a dizzy spell.

RE: the Boston thing, they are not using the water from the broken main, from what I heard it's rerouted from an emergency water supply, but boiling the water is still necessary

I was moderately confused for a moment.

A couple months ago I stocked our closet with small drums of water. People kept telling me it's not all that godawful important, but if I lived in Boston or Nashville right now? COMPLETELY JUSTIFIED.

I think if you keep no other 'emergency supply' on hand, you should keep water.

The main issue is to make damn sure it's stored in a container that's as inert as possible.

Keeping a water supply seems like so much hassle, though.  I'd just as soon grab up a LifeSaver bottle and keep that in the closet.

Honestly, of all the Cyan Prime posts to report, you guys report the one that's actually pretty funny?  If you'd reported "pad bost" I would've banned him instantly, sure, but this one got a giggle.
