PixK, I am STILL having lingering crap from that stupid cold, so I feel your pain. But I can't help but remember you poking at my whining and reminding me you went through pneumonia. So, I poke back...
I did?? I hope I was kidding around, because I would really be a bitch and a half if I had compared your cold to my former bout with pneumonia in a serious way. Sick is sick. It's never fun.
Laga, that sucks. I'm sorry about the fact that you are being put in an uncomfortable living situation yet again. Also, good luck on the game show tomorrow! I wish I could be there!
Tep, sorry to hear about the problems with the doctor's office. I've been pretty lucky with the assistants and receptionists at medical offices over the years, so I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with less than helpful folks.
ChiKat, I hope the migraine leaves quickly. Poor thing.
Shir, I meant to say earlier safety and health~ma to your sister and coping~ma to you and your family.
And because it deserves its own post, Shanah Tovah!
Joe is of the brilliant. Love the bunny dude! There was more, but I forgot to tab, and I really should be working. pffft. Somebody crack the whip... o wait. With this crowd, that could be something entirely different. nevermind.
Are those those pinwheel things?
Congrats on your winnings, Laga! I wish I were free tomorrow night, but alas...have a great time!
thanks! I'm crossing my fingers that taping is done in time. I have to pick up the tickets by 6:30 but google maps says it'll take me 54 seconds to get to Arclight from the TV studio and my day starts at 7:30 am so I'd be really surprised if they didn't let us out before 6.
oh, man, Laga, what I wouldn't give to be able to go to that screening. That's like my fave movie Of All Time.
Teppy, if your IBS acts like mine, you can go to the office and complain with odor and sound effects. I have been really impressed with some aspects of Kaiser, but you cannot reliably ever get anyone on the phone or leave a message that gets acted on, and their outside vendors for things like therapy also apparently never talk to Kaiser. The only thing that has made things better is that you can now e-mail your doctor and you can access your medical record, test results and prescription status online, thereby escaping the incompetent phone people. My neighbor, who's dealing with colon cancer, is older and I can't get her to use the e-mail, even though she does for other things. It's secured e-mail on their site, but she says, "I don't want that stuff on the internet." Honey, it's already on the internet.
That's horrifying, Omnis. There has never been a time in the last 50 years that "cripple" was socially acceptable. I should know; I beat up a number of people who called my sister that.
