That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Looks like the Scheduler fucked us but good

Unless they change something we won’t make our Sunday flight. This shit stresses me out so much.

It’s hard enough doing this when things go smoothly. And there is no fucking reason the couldn’t have given us the earlier time.

And we’ve explained this to the doctor and study coordinator.

But now I’ve got this cascading series of consequences that makes everything so much harder. It’ll be so exhausting for Jacqueline.

I’m furious and I have to find a better tone when we talk to the doctor and coordinator.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Jammy does suggest a sweet aspect that I wouldn't want to experience in my soft boiled eggs. It doesn't bother me too much, but I can see where it could annoy people.

HAAAAAAA two of Trump's lawyers just resigned.

I'm picturing Trump's former lawyers saying to their colleagues who might be tempted to take on the high profile case, "Whatever you're imagining, it's infinitely worse. Just. Don't."

Our wings are not tired.

Oh, David. I am sorry they are messing up the scheduling. This is going to be an ongoing process for many weekends. They really need to work it out better. I'm sure you are both exhausted.

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

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

we’ve explained this to the doctor and study coordinator

How far in advance are they doing the scheduling?

I'm on a six week schedule (not a two week schedule like yours), but they are still careful to make sure I am scheduled at least twelve weeks in advance, and preferably eighteen.

I wish you better scheduling, better coordination, and less frustration.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Thank Jeebus! Our coordinator finessed it to start your infusion earlier today and keep us on time for our flight out on Sunday.

I was pretty tart with him on the phone last night and he sounded contrite like a scolded puppy. So I am appreciative that he found a work around.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

As for your question, dcp, they don’t tend to schedule much beyond the next CT scan so roughly 8 weeks out.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

David, that's so frustrating! I'm glad the coordinator got the infusion time moved.
