<p>
	As I said yesterday, CREDO Mobile has a number of petitions that they sent to my inbox.
	I was going to go through them today, but I wasn&apos;t feeling up to the task.
	It&apos;s not that I&apos;m not feeling well, it&apos;s just that I&apos;ve been going through way too much email in a short period of time and the thought of processing more mail is a bit daunting.
</p>
<p>
	My mother insisted that I get an eye exam appointment scheduled, due to the quickly-approaching end date on my insurance coverage.
	I didn&apos;t want to, but I suppose she isn&apos;t wrong.
	My eyes haven&apos;t been the same since my bout of iritis several years ago.
	I have needed glasses, but haven&apos;t actually gone and gotten the glasses or even a prescription for them.
	I guess that changes now.
	I set up the appointment, but I didn&apos;t even think to bring my insurance card, as I thought I would need that only at the time of the actual appointment.
	Not having it with me set the schedule back a bit; I was unable to set up an appointment for tomorrow.
	I was instructed to bring my insurance card by tomorrow, and the appointment is on Monday.
</p>
<p>
	I did some research, and it is perfectly legal to write on money <a href="http://www.nevblog.com/is-it-illegal-to-write-on-money/">so long as the intent is not to render it unfit for use</a>.
	So while I was out, I also picked up one of those business stamps typically used to stamp addresses, the ones with all the little rubber letters that can be arranged to spell whatever you like.
	Though I&apos;m embarrassed to admit it, in my haste, I spelled out &quot;http://y.st/&quot;.
	The embarrassing part is that if you look closely, you see that the wrong protocol is used; it should read &quot;https://y.st/&quot;.
	Apparently, my mind still registers <abbr title="Hypertext Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> as the default protocol, not <abbr title="Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure">HTTPS</abbr>.
	I will continue to work on that, but I was too late to notice to save the first several bills.
	The new ones will be stamped correctly though.
	The bad protocol will still lead people to the right place due to the <abbr title="Hypertext Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> redirect though, and most people will probably ignore the <abbr title="Uniform Resource Identifier">URI</abbr> anyway.
	Even most of the people that do try to take a look will not make it due to the scary warning browsers give for self-signed certificates.
	In reality, getting the stamp is an exercise in futility, but it will allow me to know if I ever see the same bill twice.
</p>
<p>
	My <a href="/a/canary.txt">canary</a> still sings the tune of freedom and transparency.
