I adulted! Made an appointment with the Gyn for the first time in mumble mumble years. I have a shiny new Medicare card and figured I would give it a workout, and get my PCP off my back. Also, ick, I hate those appointments. Hoping the kind reviews are real for this doctor. I wanted to go to the one who delivered my first son, but she is in Fort Lauderdale and I don't want to drive that far just to see her again.

No urgent issues or anything, just trying to be responsible and stuff.

Yay responsibility!

I have a nasty headache and just spent half an hour of a meeting lying on the bathroom floor trying not to hurl. Feel a little better now but still not pleased.

I'm sorry meara, no fun at all.

I have no idea if I told people here this, but my sister stumbled upon a solution for her serious nausea and vomiting issues. I had sent her a jar of hemp cream for her painful knees and when she was putting it on her knees just leaning over made her nauseous so in exasperation she rubbed some on her chest along the esophagus line where she has the issue, and it went away in a couple minutes. She has done it a bunch of times since then and she says it is amazing how much it has helped her. She told her PCP yesterday and he was excited and happy to hear the news.

That's so great! Hemp the solution to - and cause of - all of life's problems.

My classroom issue still hasn't been fixed. I emailed about it again, and they said that people with environmental issues (like people allergic to chalk being put in a room with markers, or vice versa) had priority for room changes. Which is fine, but it's been a week, and I still can't teach my class. I asked if they needed me to submit any more paperwork for an ADA accommodation. (I know that they don't, but I pretty much just wanted to make sure to remind them that this is an ADA issue.)

I mean, I'd say not being able to get to the building is kind of an environmental issue

I can get to the building. I can't move around the classroom -- it's the kind of room with each row of seats up a step or two from the one in front of it. And it's a class where pretty much all of the class time is spent on group work, so in order to teach, I need to be able to actually get to where the students are working so that I can talk to them.

Classroom has still not been changed. One of my students asked if there was anything he could do to help, like some administrator that he could email to complain. I said no, but thanked him for the offer.

Before telling him that, did you make sure his family's name wasn't on a building?

Good point.
