Yay prescriptions! Good luck with things behind ovens. Boo semi-liquid diets.

Also, I feel like every day lately is a No Bones day for me, but Noodle sometimes disagrees.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That is why I love msbelle

Well, not the only reason, but a good one

Y’all my city is apparently providing free Thanksgiving meals to seniors, which is lovely, but they are defining “seniors” as 50+ which means I could get one? I don’t know how to feel about that. Especially considering I will probably go eat with my parents.

I also don’t know how to feel about “I don’t know how to feel about that “ coming up so easily on my suggested text…

Our wings are not tired.

not sure how I would take to living on a boat. I'd like to hear more about that.

I've always wanted to live on a boat. The far few times that I have stayed on a boat for short periods of time it has been heavenly for me. Slept so soundly with the sound of the water slapping the side of the boat and gentle, or even not so gentle, rocking. My former inlaws had a liveaboard that I stayed on a few times and it does take some planning, but I am up for it. We'll see how the cats and dog do with the marina life. The only thing I won't have is my car charger, but the datacenter where we house our servers has a Tesla charger and the owner said I am welcome to use it any time with no charge. Basically, that electricity is a drop in the bucket for what they consume in power. The big challenge is finding an affordable and maneuverable boat that Brendon can stand upright in.

I am charmed by the notion of msbelle retrieving the errant cup.

Jealous of the prospect of living on a boat, Laura! Something I would like to try although I’m not sure I could make it happen in a practical way.

I am once again surprised at how quickly test results are available to me. Is this a Kaiser thing or a living in the future thing? Anyway, everything normal so far, not sure if there are more results to come.

Our own Buffista, Dawn K, used to live on a boat with her family. It wasn't always paradise, as I recall.

Useta-could.

It's a living in the future thing. I am still amazed how quickly my reports are available in the patient portal.

Normal is good.

Cool cool cool

ETA I am pleased and mildly surprised at all the normal results!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I went to the ER back in August and get my lab results in my email/patient portal about 10 or 15 minutes before the doc came in to tell me about them. It probably made the conversation much smoother for him.
