Steph and Theo, I'm so sorry.
Spike: You pissed in the Big Man's Chair? That's fantastic! Gunn: Spike, can you please turn off that warm fuzzy? Spike: What, the Lorne thing? Worn off. I just think that's bloody fabulous.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
It's so damn hard to lose them.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am so sorry Teppy.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
It's just that Slinky is so old (19, at least) and has kidney failure -- I was sure she wouldn't make it through this year (and she might not), and then we'd have Toke around for years. But Toke was about 15, and that is a pretty good long life for a cat (Slinky is the weird outlier who I'm pretty sure is eternal).
It was just such a shock to find her, when she was basically fine. And even Tuesday and yesterday, she wasn't overtly distressed, or else we would have taken her to the vet immediately. I know sometimes these things just happen, but man, it sucks so much.
And now I have an assload of work to do. Woo.

I'm so sorry, Teppy and Tim. Toke was a lucky kitty to have you guys for her family.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Aetna pharmacy calls me. I call back. They then put me on hold while they look up the reference number. (Uh, you guys called me, so maybe it would be good if someone knew the details before I called back?) Then she tries to convince me that it's my husband's issue, and not mine. Uh, no, I'm pretty sure I know what medication we each take.
Then she says good news, they'll send me something so I can return the medicine I got (90 pills instead of 135). I said, are they going to send a replacement? She sighs and says, "Oh, there's a lot to read here." Yes, I apologize for making you understand what the actual issue is.
She says, "I don't see any indication that you have any open orders."
"So my only options are to keep the wrong dosage of pills, or to return all of it and have no medicine?"
"Yeah," she says, sounding a little surprised, but not displeased. "I guess those are your only options!"

Damn, Dana. This is beyond egregious bullshit.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
We have the name of a supervisor who was pretty helpful last night, so I will call her later, when I'm not actually at work and have time to spend on this bullshit.
Thank god I had some refills left at a local pharmacy.
