it does sound like a bug,steph.

when I have lost it and really it wasn't deserved, I've gone back and apologized for my behavior.

And I whined about work when I worked part time ... So really too many hours is ok

This has been a lunch time catch up

Steph. take care of your brain first.

I sent a long email to my doctor explaining what he should know, and also sent a copy to the department coordinator. Nothing in his reply suggested action (current plan is to skip the next dose, and pick up on the 12th, where we both know the meds are unlikely to work.) So I sent him an email, cc-ing the office admin, asking if pain relief was in my hands until the12th.

This might be what drives me to get a marijuana card. They are legal, right? They are medical treatment, indicated for migraines. I could be buying oxy on the black market and snorting it, or I could be cutting myself, but instead, if I don't hear by him today, tomorrow I go get a card, and do what I can to keep myself on schedule to pick up on the 12th.

Look at this amazing CGI-work: [link] The webbing on the lower eyelid is mesmerising. I want to see the mouth move more, but maybe he's not put all the effort in there yet.

My sister cancelled her visit to Florida to stay home and take care of my parents. Father's still down for the count with chicken'sgonnagityou, and my mother's mobility and walking pain are through the roof.

We got one for my mom with no trouble, ita_!, and San Diego's supposed to be a bigger pain about it than LA. So I'd say with the amount of pain you are/will be in and the NON-comensurate amount of help you're getting from the Dr, it may well be time to go for the "non-traditional" path.

Mine took a 20-minute visit to a weed doctor and $75.00. You can find weed doctors on yelp.

Well, my doctor has re-instituted the normal regimen, but I think it's time I stop feeling so prudish about it, and just get a card, in case. Just, not tomorrow, since meds.

Does anyone here (LeN?) use IFTTT? I'm getting spammed every time I get a legit text message. It tells me my doctor replied, and the next IM from the same sender is

IFTTT ? TICKETS FOR SALE ? GREAT SEATS ? LOW PRICES ? (GREAT SEATS! GREAT PRICE!) [link] [don't click, it's the real spam link]

I love how much more confident it gets as it goes along.

So instead of work stress causing the sickness, it may be the other way around.

ION, I must give a shoutout to my car repair place. They'd said last time that I should look at replacing tires. I've had blow-outs on the road, and I don't want to risk one on the freeway, so I gave verbal authorization for new tires all around. The guy came back and said, "Actually, you've got new ones up front already, and the back ones don't match but you've probably got another few months on them." He had a sale pretty much locked but didn't go for it. I think I'll keep going there.

Well, my doctor has re-instituted the normal regimen

Woo! Awesome news!

I use IFTTT but not enough to get spammed, I think.

Well, my doctor has re-instituted the normal regimen

WHEW! That's great to hear.

I really hope this interview on Monday goes well. But if it doesn't, and I wind up murdering my current boss in a blackout rage spell, you guys will help me hide the body, right? (Note to self: book a conference room. Murder in an open plan office will be hard to cover up.)

She is the worst person I have ever worked with, and now I'm working for her. The only thing keeping me from quitting is health insurance for my kids.

Glad the normal regimen is back on track, but yes I would get the card if I were you. Better than being at your doctor's whim.

I can't believe there is ANYONE who wouldn't complain about working that hard, Tep, at least, non-stop.
