I see I'm late, but: Go boots! Choose boots!
Also, three cheers for getting stitches out.
Happy Friday, North Americans. (Happy week-end, billytea!)
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Love the color!
the doc said I don't need to come back again unless there's something wrong! Yay!
Yay indeed!
I just heard from my manager. We definitely won't be back in the next three months, and probably not then.

I'd like to ask how UPS could have "missed me" given I haven't left my apartment except to take out the recycling after the UPS driver already came and went.
I guess it's weirdly comforting to know that the same UPS shenanigans continue even in these uncertain times.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay! How are you feeling?
Inspired by Lisa, and the email I got about approaching the max leave time, I am taking next Friday off. I've been taking almost every other Friday off, and I think I should make a point of continuing that. It's good!

shrift, I saw a post, "were you a kid who'd ring people's doorbells and then run away? UPS is hiring!"

I am annoyed as hell. Remember a couple of weeks ago when I picked up my blood pressure meds and it had a note that said (roughly) "You're overdue for a physical and bloodwork and if you don't get them done we won't refill your meds"? I was sure that if I sent a message saying "Yeah, pandemic, you don't REALLY want me to come into the office for something that isn't an actual illness, right?", they would say "Oh god, do NOT come in to the office; we'll refill your meds."
Yeah, no. They really want me to come in for a physical and bloodwork. What the fuck. That is some kind of bullshit. They said "we schedule the physicals in office during well time only in AM so you are not around any sick type visits." I am not filled with confidence, motherfuckers.

Because we're doing so well IDing people with COVID. Uh-huh. I'm sorry, Steph. That is, indeed, bullshit.

Oh dear, Tep. I'm surprised they would insist like that.
That reminds me, I need to get my car smogged if I can find some place that will do it...

Yeah, I seriously thought it was an automatically generated message that they would overrule. I think it's important to have a physical and have bloodwork done (I even said that in the message I sent them), but it seems really short-sighted to ask patients to come in right now, if they don't actually need to. God damn it.
