I'm in the waiting room. I'm going to attempt to get myself a healthy lunch after this since ltc is with the Inlaws for the afternoon.

Our wings are not tired
Thank you for the ~ma everyone. The logjam is finally starting to clear. I'm not completely in the clear quite yet, but at least there is some forward momentum.

Good to hear. We'll keep the ~ma coming anyway!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
A belated happy birthday, sox!
I haven't been for a physical in more than 2 years. I should do that, but I don't wanna hear what they're going to say. ~ma for everyone who's dealing with the same.
The powder thing is new, and went into effect on June 30th. [link] Electronics have been since last year, but I haven't been hit with that requirement domestically yet. It's fairly standard internationally. It's all still security theatre.
Shir, that's awesome. What a lovely memory to create.
meara, I'm dreading the same thing with my parents. I'm sorry you and your sister have to deal with this.
shrift is my sister in ridiculous 12+ hour days. I'd really like a tiny break in the workflow, so I'm not always eating lunch at 3 pm.
Continued cash-flow~ma to ND, and thesis~ma to Pix!

I have 3 months to start improving my health or my doc is going to throw a bunch more pills at me. Yay?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
This flight is surprisingly indifferent to the World Cup.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The Wimbledon men's quarterfinals are amazeballs.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
This migraine is so bad that I came to urgent care (piercing, you let me down), and the front desk staff was so awful to me that I lost it and started sobbing in the waiting room. Fuck these motherfuckers. I'm waiting to get a shot, and when I get back to a keyboard (instead of my phone), I'll explain why they're a bunch of assholes here.
The doctor was very kind (possibly because I'm still crying), but the rest of these shitheads can get bent. I hope this place gets sucked into a black hole (after I leave) (and after the doctor leaves, because he was nice).
Definitely emailing the parent company of this place when I get back to a keyboard (which makes me worry that I'm the "Let me speak to your manager" lady but they made me sob in the middle of the waiting room, so, you know, I'm okay giving feedback to the parent company).

In my experience, while the urgent care people are nice, it doesn't seem to occur to them that if I have a migraine, it would be nice if they didn't slam doors and blaze the lights. Having the staff be rude during a migraine is like ten times worse.

Oh, no, Tep! I'm so sorry.
