Sj's inlaws: Could be worse. Could be me. I ought to hire myself out as Bad cop for situations like that, with the tat and the socialism...they'd be begging you to come back.

Erika, heh.

Thanks, everyone. Apparently TCG is also still really annoyed and hasn't let it go yet.

IBetterN, I'm trying to plan ltc's 1st birthday party, but I have no idea what I'm doing. Also even immediate family and close friends is so many people.

Poor TCG. It no doubt puts him in protective mode, naturally.

Thanks, Laura. We've also decided we're too embarrassed to go back to our local ice cream shop for a while.

I've been eating badly and watching too much TV lately. So I'm having my second cuppa this morning in the quiet of my bedroom and I'm going to try and actually read some library books before they're overdue while ltc naps. After that I will attempt to find something not crap to eat.

sj, holy crap, that just makes me livid on your behalf. What a pile of assholes. You are not overreacting. I'm so glad TCG is supporting you.

If your insurance is balking, you can find CPAPs on eBay and the manuals are easy to find. That's how my doctor got me on one years ago when ponying up the $1500 co-pay for a sleep study was not-doable.

Good to know, thanks. I don't know if the insurance is really balking or if the device supply store is just incompetent. Given my test results and the doctor's order, there should be no problem with Cigna.

Doctor told me, though it's bad, he's seen people with worse sleep apnea than mine. I said how, are they just zombies? He said, pretty much.

I used to work with a man whose apnea was bad enough that he once fell asleep in the office in the middle of a phone call. Was sitting at his desk, sound asleep, head propped on his fist which was holding the phone.

Tom will carry a grudge for me for years after I've forgotten. He will hate someone forever if they make me cry.

I read, ate, and napped a bit while ltc napped. She's been waking up and not making a sound, just standing there and waiting for me to get her, which I only know about if I look at the monitor. I wonder if I should be worried about this behavior?

thessaly is coming over to go with us to the farmer's market in a couple of hours. So, that will be fun, and I'll get to bitch some more about the crazy in person.

Thanks! I hope you get your CPAP soon, and I hope it makes a huge difference for you.

That's more me than TCG. Also, I wasn't crying. I was ragefully angry. Still am, although it's a little better.

I am the grudge-holder in our marriage. My grudges are EPIC.
