D'oh, the mayo cake is from WWII - rationing, not Depression [link]

Someone wasn't thinking things all the way through when they rationed eggs but not mayo. Although I guess no one's eating bacon and mayo for breakfast?

Someone, somewhere, is eating bacon and mayo for breakfast. People are weird.

I'm having such A Week for Reasons, and I'm concerned the same Reasons will spill over to my vacation time next week.

My coworker the martyr sent out a document for everyone to review at 1:30 AM this morning.

I may be watching too much Schitt's Creek, because my immediate response to that was, "Ew!"

I can't decide if I'm justifiably annoyed at my CVS, or irrationally annoyed. Twice in the past 5 days they've just kind of...not filled my refills after I ordered them, until I called and asked if there was a problem with the refill (at which point the dude on the phone asked me -- hand to god -- "Oh, did you want that refilled?"). My doctor sent a refill Friday, and by Sunday afternoon CVS hadn't filled it, so I called to ask if they were out of stock (that's when the phone dude asked if I wanted it refilled). Then it occurred to me if I was going to go pick that up, I should refill my Prozac, so I used the app to order that refill Monday morning. As of this morning, they still hadn't refilled it, so I called and asked if there was a problem. I think I got the same phone dude, because he just said "Uh...we can fill that today."

Normally they fill refills the same day. Am I irrationally annoyed that, after 2 days of waiting, I had to call (for 2 separate prescriptions) to tell them that yes, I actually want the meds I asked for?

I'm going to pick them up today, and I don't want to be the Can I Speak To A Manager person, but I do want to know if they've changed their policy on how long it takes to refill prescriptions. If they've changed it to 2 days, they need to let people know.

Uh, no, that is the basic function of a pharmacy, to fill prescriptions when you ask them to.

Sorry, I can't tell if that sounds snappy or not. It's only intended to be snappy at the pharmacy.

Huh, it appears I have signed up for Match in Salisbury, NC. That's weird. I guess somebody mistyped their email address. More interesting is that the confirmation E-mail gives me an option to retrieve my password instead of resetting it. Apparently Match doesn't do e-mail verification and stores people's actual passwords. That's a lot of security fail.

No that's annoying, Teppy. Mine often has one drug I get that they don't stock, and have to get next day, and they always end up calling me after I call the automated system for a refill, and asking "is tomorrow after 1pm ok?" (Once it wasn't so I ended up driving to the branch that stocked it)

Walgreens tends to overcommunicate, which is fine except for that one time they told me the drug I needed was discontinued by the manufacturer. Which it was not.

Awww, RIP Opportunity. Apparently NASA called it. Ya done well, Opportunity!

Just got back from taking the dog to the park in the pouring rain. She refuses to go outside when it is raining, unless I go with her. I don't even bother with a leash, just get my umbrella and walk over to the park and she happily tags along, quickly does her thing, then runs home. And with her taking water pills she goes often!
