Thanks everyone. I have made a quick list of issues I want to discuss, and made a list of all my appointments so I don't overbook. Must.calm.down.
You walk in worlds the others can't begin to imagine.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Ah, quester, I am so right there with you. I find it helps to take out the cash I have for the week and then not carry a credit or debit card. But if what you make isn't covering your expenses, that doesn't really help. I wish I had something to offer besides empathy.
~ma, sj. FWIW, I had a therapist for years who had no office assistant, and it was fine.

Calm, calm, sj. You're going to be fine. Good job on the prep work.

Have you tried the Dave Ramsey stuff, quester?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I just wish they'd make it clear what they're looking for. The fact that I have a job was OK, and then it wasn't OK, and I don't know why.
For that particular dog, not for all the dogs they have. The foster home, having closer contact with the dog, would know what the dog could or could not handle. Sucks, but sucks less than getting the dog, and then realizing you and the dog aren't working out.

Maybe she has too much separation anxiety. My brother's dog is a rescue and he totally does(He's gotten better since my brother has him, but still...) Maybe that dog expresses her worries by peeing...maybe you'll feel you dodged a bullet when you find the right one.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I won't have insurance until it does
Isn't it retroactive? Or is it about not spending up front?

Sorry, need to vent for a bit. Today can just suck it. It started off well enough, but I got my neck/upper back out of whack either while sleeping or *ahem* morning amusements. Now I can't really turn my head well. I stopped at the drug store to get drugs and a stick on heating thingy, and then spent 10 panicked minutes searching the car for my wallet, which I finally found.
You know? One of those days. And I can't afford to go home, so I'm working as carefully as I can.
Oh, and just found out that a friend of mine and Nora's has cancer. So FUCK CANCER.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
It IS retroactive, and we are sending in the form today, but my insurance is terminated for about 10 days until our COBRA election forms go through. I know medical care is retroactive under our plan, but I'm not sure about Rx.

Scrappy, even without insurance, if you're willing to have the generic of ambien, it shouldn't cost much--maybe $30:
