Tommy, thinking of you and your family. That ER doctor was way out of line. So very sorry for all of it.
Good luck Consuela! More good luck, ita!
ETA: We get to see Jars and DH sooooon. So excited.
Xander: I do have Spaghetti-os. Set 'em on top of the dryer and you're a fluff cycle away from lukewarm goodness. Riley: I, uh, had dryer-food for lunch.

Good luck with your family's situation, Tommy.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Friggin' communists have surprised me again. And of course I am wearing white pants today.
I am not sure whether I am pleased or not that my best bet for getting a quarter for the feminine hygiene vending machine is to buy Hostess donettes...

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Sounds like a win-win, -t...

It's more sugar than I am used to, but I think that's okay in the circumstances...

Wow, ~ma and luck to everyone who needs it today. I am struggling against my inbox since I'm only working a half day, because VividCon is this weekend and that means I get vids and Buffistas. I won't complain.
I've decided small town hospitals in Wisconsin suck.
Small town hospitals in Michigan are remarkably the same. In middle school, I had a doctor tell me I probably had "the kissing disease" when I later was diagnosed with allergies. The situation hasn't improved, because I was talking with my mom recently. One of her coworkers is a high-strung kind of person and apparently her doctor recommended that she get laid.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm guessing small town hospitals anywhere are a crap shoot.

Holds up hand for hospital my dad is in. His doctor is kind of a jerk. (We had to argue for proper pain management.) So could we go for back up to dad's orthopaedic surgeon? Unlikely since both the surgeon and the anaesthesiologist for his surgery are his GP's brothers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't know if it's small town so much as small.
I know, UCLA horror stories, but the boutique hospital I went to sometimes, one doctor threatened me with a spinal tap if I kept insisting I had pain. I tugged open my gown and said "Go for it" and he, unsurprisingly took another course.
t looks way too much like I'm looking for work.
Isn't that the game? Says the woman about to get into a vintage dress (I picked #2--it's from the 80s).
I have no words for the Buffistas with family illness problems.
