Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Um Zen, you need to make some calls. I am happy to harass you until you do, or to even do some legwork for you to make it happen. It's 9:30 here now. I expect to hear that you have called a shrink before noon my time. DO NOT MAKE ME COME OVER THERE!

Oh, you say that like it's a threat! Thanks for the offer; I appreciate it, but I actually have the numbers to call at hand. I just haven't done it. Mainly because I don't much like the shrink and the mammogram scares me.

But OK, concerned Buffistas, I concede. I will schedule a head-shrinking and a titty-squishing tomorrow, if I can on a Saturday, and Monday if I can't. (I've never understood why it's called "head-shrinking".)

Forget the rest. Schedule the mammogram.

Yes'm.

Kathy, upcoming surgery ~ma! I think you are very brave.

Damn, Juliebird, I do believe I'd use a nastier word than cunt for your ED.

Cash, I think Rachel Maddow is hot.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Juliebird the only practical thing I can think of is go to a board meeting to 'learn more about the organization'if possible. this could give you a better feel for knowing if you can push things up the chain. ( but I would go with some prepared things to say if asked - about plants or access)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Cash, I think Rachel Maddow is hot.

I KNOW! So do I! I'm pretty sure his political bent is right but he's not stupid--he's a pediatric neurosurgeon. He just doesn't get the appeal of her cockeyed smile. Which I find charming.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I am looking at those yoga poses and all I can think is, "Would I have to *hold* them?" and "Ouch."

Good vibes on the surgery, Kathy.

Y'all are reminding me I need to schedule my mammo too. I suggested to my internist that every other year was probably enough for me, but she kinda shrugged and went with every year. Can't hurt, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Work call in seven. Then I can shut off brane. Hurry! Everything's been going as smoothly as silk.

I should get a fucking GP. And then a physical. And then the girly bits looked at. Oy.

I have GP issues. I like mine well enough, but really not that much. And thankfully I don't need much GP right now. I like Grace's GP much better but I think it's because I've bullied him. I love my OBGYN who can't be my GP but for all intents and purposes is as I see her every year.

Oy. Jeez. I have to feed Grace one more tube of food then BED FOR ME.

Also, note to Noah's preschool. I get WHY you don't want kids at Back to School night. But this is a required parent meeting and you want me to bring potluck AND no kids are allowed? After work work on a Monday? WTF?!
