Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Gah. I'm sorry you have to deal with this, GC.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh, GC. I'm so sorry this is dragging on. I hope you click with the new OB you chose.

I wish everybody with pets had a Chuck And Don's Pet Food Outlet [link] to shop at. They offer the widest variety of better quality pet foods that I have ever seen. And the staff are so friendly and helpful - even when you make 'em work the special orders over and over. One of the staff there remembers me well enough to say, "Hey that company has corn in some of its foods, let's double check on this kind before we order it for Harvey". Plus their website has links to a zillion different pet food companies so it has really made it easy to comb through looking for foods for him, as his list of food intolerances and allergies grows. I just sent them an email saying all that to them. Huh. I hope they have some kind of incentive program for their sales associates, that rewards them when they get praised to the head office, since I referred to one by name.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

From my understanding, Dr offices have to transfer records to each other free, but can charge if the patient wants a copy. Of course, when I found this out it was because I was pissed that my Dr/hosp wanted $10 from me to copy my records. $50 is crap. My inarticulate rage is with you, GC. Thank goodness the next time you see them will be in your metaphorical rearview. Much ~ma with the new OB.

I love our local pet store: The Barking Cat. It's small, but the guys who run it are great.

Argh. I'm sorry the insurance network difficulty is not resolved, yet, Glam.

(((((GC))))) Tons of calm-ma.

TCG is getting a root canal which is going to cost a ton despite coverage. I am out trying to get something to eat so that this headache will die, but I don't have my wallet so now I need to run home to hopefully find my wallet, rush to find food, and rush back to pick up TCG. t bangs hwad on steering wheel.

Nora, The Barking Cat does look like a great store. I looked at the list of foods they have, and they really do sell several of the best foods.

I'm sorry TCG needs a root canal, and that you are feeling so icky, sj. Dental~ma for him, and wallet-finding~ma for you.

Headache begone ~ma, sj. I'm sorry you have so many hoops to jump through right now.

We go to the Big Bad Woof for Sass' food: [link]

They fill the treat ball when they see her coming, and the owners live in the community so we see them all sorts of places (e.g. one turns up in my yoga class, regularly).

sj, I hope you and TCG are both home and comfortable soon.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

You know, the thing about Monday - it is sneaky. I don't work on monday, so my monday can be pretty easy. However, other people's Mondays can make my monday suck. ( yes, DH is not having a good monday) This monday was engineered by Tino.
