Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I had a (probably temporary) pet/sleep victory this week: On I think Wednesday, I had a Serious Talk with the cat about not waking me up at 5 or 6 am anymore, and he hasn't done it the last couple of mornings! I think he really heard me.

Go msbelle and Perkins!

Hope you are getting lots of cuddles from Swifty, and he does well.

My swim was interrupted by a barfing kid. Had a nice conversation with some of the aqua aerobics ladies while waiting for it to reopen so I could finish. t whine I really want my good times back. t /whine

Oh grrr, meara! Wouldn't it be terrible if there were bureaucrats in between you and your healthcare??

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

We have CVS Caremark too, and they're totally shitty.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I love this guy's mockery of women on fantasy book covers. So much that I'd even think about reading his books. Well played, author, well played.

Oh, if ONLY.

Oh, god, I really wish I could get back on Kaiser. I'm terrified I'll be stuck on BC/BS forever...

... someone's not reading my LJ. ::pouts:: Anyway, Jim Hines' books are pretty good, but not (sadly) as good as his LJ. Good ideas, but the execution's a bit shaky. That said, I love the idea of Libromancer, and will totally be buying it.

Also, I think this link is even better, because she compares covers with men to covers with women, and does a pretty thoughtful analysis of the differences: [link]

Yeah--I mean, I don't love any benefits managing company, and I already KNOW they will only give me so much of a drug per month, but to send me a shitty condescending letter about how it's for my own good? Pisses me right the fuck off.

I'm not reading anyone's LJ, actually.

I have CVS for drugs, Aetna for eta: what? medical. We just got a rollable HSA, which is an improvements from the non-rolling FSA (which failed to reimburse my dental this year, so I'm chasing receipts to make claims and get my fucking money back.)

But I don't have any standing prescriptions and so far, just have needed generic anti-bs, which are cheaper ay my cost and using the *SA than dealing with Caremarks' bullshit confusion.
