Heh... I just had an appointment with my eye doctor, and they did some slightly unusual stuff so he warned me that it was going to end up on my medical insurance rather than my vision. I said no big deal, our out-of-pocket is met so it doesn't matter to me one way or the other. He noted that must be nice, his family never hit theirs because it was super high, like $5000... and I said, yeah, so is ours. These days we hit it around August or September, but in our worst year we made it by early April.

Which means, in the grand scheme of things, I'm the one insurance is really for, and you guys are all helping to pay for my kids. Huzzah!
