Neck still hurts like whoa. Work horrible. Being nitpicked and guilted on all fronts, including fannish. Want to crawl under bed with heating pad and manga.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I've decided that since "creationism" has changed it's name to "intelligent design", I'ma give "evolution" a new name.

From henceforth, "Evolution" is to be called "gradual development".

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I was gonna try to get an earlier flight out, but I swear the weather forecasts sound really wimpy and I don't feel like rushing. An earlier flight would mean leaving for the airport RIGHT NOW! Bah, not gonna. If I get delayed or re-directed, then so be it. Be warned Buffistas, if I get redirected to any of your towns I will be calling.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

If a doctor visit leaves me feeling humiliated and like I never want to see a doctor again, I should write a letter to my HMO, correct?

Abso-fuckin-lutely, Allyson.

Shrift, I'm sorry about the neck and general duck pecking.

Hell, yes.

Y'damn skippy. Is it your regular PCP or a specialist? Me, I wrote to the doctor I'd seen and cc'ed the insurance company and my PCP. Okay, not much came from it, but I felt better.

Did your doctor treat you better the next time?

Well, since I was writing about how poorly I'd felt I was being treated by her office staff and that I felt my time had been wasted by not one but two appointments at which nothing happened, I actually went ahead and got another specialist. But my PCP said the doctor in question had felt just awful about it!

Allyson, is it a group practice? Can you switch doctors? DH did this--and made sure to tell the doctor why he was switching.
