When I successfully managed to get Matilda in for an appointment at the Teen clinic on Wednesday, they noted that they were no longer partnering with my insurance after February. Great?
Looks like my wire transfer was done this morning. We'll see if it posts to my account in time for me to fend off the IRS.
On the previous subject of supplements, I've started taking a Motility supplement. I got sucked into watching their whole dang infomercial and got it even though it was on the expensive side.
However, it does do exactly what it promises to do which is it gives you a Goldilocks poop every day. Not too hard, not too soft, not too much wiping.
I've cut back from their recommended two-a-day dose to one, which basically cuts the price in half with no loss in efficacy.
There used to be a Korean take-out place downstairs where I work. I would eat kimchi from there once or twice a week, and I was in a probiotic poop nirvana. But then they went out of business during the pandemic.

Just started taking it for RLS. Hit and miss so far, but I'm rocking a very low dose at the moment.
Y'all, my work laptop got upgraded from an ancient Toshiba Tecra to a newer if not new ThinkPad (I keep wanting to say IBM but actually Lenovo these days? I am also ancient) and it is surprisingly disorienting! Everything looks slightly different and the keyboard not only is a different enough size to throw off my not-quite-but-almost-touch-typing but, like, the ctrl key is in a different spot
My dog killed my Thinkpad recently and I switched to a DELL G16 (mostly for the dedicated graphics card at a reasonable price) and the shift characters on the keys are below the normal characters instead of above. Keeps freaking me out.
I will say that the DELL G16 does seem to play really well with Linux.

Ugh. Why does the U.S. health care system have to suck so much?
It's the money.
Why it sucks so much.
The presentations I go to use more words than that.
Sometimes powerpoints.
