Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Susan, I wanted to capture that picture of Annabel, but your settings won't allow it. Bummed, now.

Would you like me to email a copy?

Unfortunately, Annabel decided to wake up at 2:00 a.m. and not go back to sleep for quite awhile. Nothing like all three of us being awake at 3:00 a.m., and her the only one happy about it! And I really meant to go to church this week. But not now. Too tired.

Susan, I would love that! Thank you. Profile addy is good.

Nora, I used a combination of two different recipes, but this one is a good one. I left out the pimentos and onions this time because I wasn't sure my daughter would eat it if I put them in. She has food issues. Also, I just used canned diced green peppers, it's easier. It's basically corn bread, with some nummy additions.

Mexican Spoon Bread

Combine:
1/2 cup cooking oil
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 can cream corn
1 cup yellow cornmeal
3/4 cup milk
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1-1/2 cups grated cheese
1 can pimientos, finely chopped
1 grated onion
2 pods Jalapeno peppers, seeds removed and finely chopped

Pour into heavy baking dish. Bake 1 hour at 400F. Serve as a side dish like a dressing.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Such gorgeous seattle babygirls!

I'm suffering slightly from the dearth of new Ellie and Owen pics. And I'm sure Em has achieved picture-worthy new skills... Where are the pictures?

I woke up thinking it was Monday. Imagine the mixture of pleasure at it not being Monday, and mentally kicking myself for not sleeping longer.

The status is NOT quo.

I love lazy Sunday mornings. I'm sprawled in bed with a grey kitty curled up in my lap and no particular schedule to follow AIFG.

Well, turns out it's not the inclusions in mexican spoon bread that my daughter doesn't like, she doesn't like corn bread of any type. Must put that on my list with pineapple for her. Guess I'll have to take it to work Monday to dispose of it. While I love the heck out of it, I don't need a whole pan in the house to tempt me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Feh. Just got off the phone with my pharmacy. It's a shame they're so convenient (across the street from my apartment, basically), because this woman was INSANELY rude to me.

I refilled this prescription yesterday online. Because I lost my refills when I transferred to this new pharmacy, they needed to call my doctor. I do not know if my gyno has weekend hours, so I thought I'd call the pharmacy to see if they were able to refill it.

The instant this woman picked up the phone (after getting my name), she starts lecturing me in the most condescending voice possible on the fact that (a) I have no more refills (b) they need to call the doctor and (c) she wasn't there yesterday, so it's not her problem that nobody did this yet. To which my answers, had she let me give them, were (a) I already knew (b) so did anyone do that yet? and (c) I really don't care what your personal hours are.

Every time I tried to interject, she cut me off. Finally I was able to get out "So my prescription is NOT READY YET, right?" She snapped "Right," and HUNG UP THE PHONE.

I'd complain to the manager, but because she hung up on me, I wasn't able to get her name. Bitch.

Of course, I still have to go over there to get blister pads (damn you, strappy sandals!), but I was hoping to get my new pills at the same time.

Jessica, even if you didn't get the name, I think you should still complain. It doesn't hurt to have all the employees occasionally reminded of good customer relations. Especially since you have specifics that you can point to. Besides, she might have said something to her coworkers and then when everyone gets the lecture they'll know who to blame. (I'm evil, so sue me.)

I think you still have enough information to comaplain to the manager. "The woman who answered my call on Sunday afternoon was VERY rude to me. I didn't get her name, but I'm hoping you can figure it out and take any appropriate steps with her to curb her rudeness."

Sail and I are in complete agreement.
