In case anyone was wondering, sneezing about 30 times in a row will hurt your throat, stuff up your nose, and make you feel like shite. I do not recommend the practice.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Ouch.

That resembles my mornings. Well. I've gotten up to 26 in a 90 m period.
I gotta say, every time I walk into my bedroom, I get a frisson of joy. So happy with the new furniture. It was the right impulse buy.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Fucking Humana (unsurprisingly) denied my doctor's request for approval of the only drug that might help my IBS. The reason they gave for denying it? They said I need to have first tried Drug XYZ within the last year.
I am currently TAKING Drug XYZ, and have BEEN taking it 24/7 for over 3 months, which their own pharmacy claims show. So I clearly meet their criteria.
Will I be angrily Tweeting at Humana while my doctor appeals the decision? You damn bet I will.
(I know that insurance companies basically just deny claims the first time even if you meet the criteria and hope that you don't have the spoons to appeal. They don't know me very well. But they will.)
I also genuinely hope that every executive at Humana gets the form of IBS I have and that no medication works for them and they can't get to a bathroom when they need it. For real. Fuck those fucking fuckers.

Rage tweet away, Stephanie!
I feel so much better this morning. Last night Kelly (aka K-Bug) brought me OJ, honey, and flowers.

Very Monday feeling Wednesday, no?
Today is Max's last day of summer school. He will retake the state test he failed next Tuesday and then be done.
I did not report that he was REALLY GOOD this weekend. There were smiles and he allowed hugs and he acted very human like, I was very happy and heaped him with praise.

Yay, Mac!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Glad to hear that!!
So I just got an email from a local performance space that has a lot of burlesque shows. Among the upcoming are: Witness the Wasteland: A Burlesque Tribute to the World of Mad Max; Holy Sh!tsnacks Striptease: An Archer Burlesque; and Dr. Horrible's Strip-Along-Blog. Made me laugh.

YAY!

Not yay. I really don't understand how insurance company executives can look at themselves in the mirror every morning. After a point how do they not go, "I'm a failure as a human being" and wander off into the nearest desert, never to be seen again.
