Yikes. Good luck with the boss Sophia—glad you’ve got plenty of sick time to burn!
Good luck atropa also. I, like Plei, often have 7 or 730 meetings, as the price of living on the west coast, but I know that’s not your usual.
I went to the dentist today and they told me I need a crown. Boo and grr. They were like “there’s less than a third of your regular tooth left and so that’s when we recommend a crown” and I was like “ok why didn’t you recommend it when you last did a filling on this tooth then? It hasn’t changed since the last time I was here?” And they gave me some BS. Like, I’ve been going to the same practice (albeit a few different dentists) for 15 years, they ought to stand by their work! They’re going to submit to my dental insurance and let me know how much it would be, but I’m tempted to plan to take a Mexico vacation this winter and get it done there, probably cheaper.
She is a hospice nurse and it is rather disconcerting before I know the plan from my actual doctor.
I feel like she should know better! Hang in there.
That sounds complicated, Sophia. I hope you can get things arranged to your satisfaction. I generally think you work too hard, so I’m always going to advocate for not working, but if the alternative isn’t better than of course you should do what you want!
Made it to my gate 45 minutes before boarding, plenty of time for pancakes and a bloody mary. I haven’t flown in a couple of years so maybe I’m remembering wrong, but the whole security situation seems to have gotten stupider. Maybe it’s just me not knowing my way through it.
Sophia, I'm glad to hear you've been discharged, and it sounds like things are moving in the right direction, clot-wise. Use up that PTO to heal and rest up for further treatment!
erika, I am making a O_O face at hail breaking a window! That's some serious hail!
Water (frozen, but still) should not be breaking in when no one answers its knocks!
Glad to hear that things have somewhat improved, Sophia.
Sophia - all I keep saying is that I'm sending good vibes your way, which feels kind of useless, but I am thinking about you very much! I hope you can get things sorted to your satisfaction with work and all.
-t, may this be a fun and memorable (in only good ways) trip! I mean, you probs won't be doing a play by play, but if you do... yay. And if you don't -- look forward to hearing the details post-trip.
meara, I have two crowns in my future. But, sadly, no Mexico trip. Hmmm.
erika - holy shit! I'm sorry that happened to your window, geez. Am glad it didn't bonk any humans, though. Yikes.
It feels like a Friday, and yet it is not.
Oh! And lisah -- I'm glad you're healing well and resting! Bionic knees for the win.
They said this flight was full but the seat next to me is empty, yay! My seat won’t really recline, boo.
The stones were kind of big, but it was a lot.
Because the fun never stops, I have a dental cleaning today and tomorrow I have to get up two hours early so that Mom can take a stupid CPR class for what feels like the thousandth time.(The agency left it to the last second so it's our emergency--all of those people are stupid and The Absolute Worst.)
It was just bucketing rain here a few minutes ago.
