"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'd have been pissed at K sucking up all the available work from home days this week anyway, but this is some fucking bullshit that I do not have time for.

Are you allowed to punch her in the face? Is that mentioned in your policy manual?

Brenda, that sounds like a firm discussion when she gets back. If things don't change, then a discussion with your supervisor.

Our manager is supposed to be calling me in a few anyway. I may just vent a little and get it off my chest.

She's not typically so thoughtless, but this is just so aggravating. I went through a period this spring where I was on client sites for a week at a time on several occasions. But when I was back in the office, I did not take WFH days unless seriously necessary specifically to lighten the burden. Our manager was also based here then so it was three of us juggling days rather than just two.

I have already made plans for medicinal alcohol with a friend after work, since I'm now going to be fucking downtown anyways. Feh.

K better watch it - she may turn into the new Tino!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's seriously annoying, brenda.

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

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

insurance is still fighting paying for 1 night. says he does not meet criteria. I have to pick him up before 4 regardless because he has been perfect and so will not meet criteria for night 2. I have NO ONE to see him, no plan. refuse to start him on a med without a relationship with a dr. because that just seems crazy.

frantically calling all the people I have been referred to. The insurance recommended some out patient places in Long Island and Elizabeth NJ. I started screaming and crying on the phone with them.

I think my dad has to come up.

I think that's a good idea. You need reinforcements.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

msbelle, I desperately wish there was soomething more I could do than send you internet vibes and good thoughts and prayers. Is there anything - anything at all - that any of us can do to help?
