Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Thrive to spite them

YAY for Nilly's son's Bar Mitzvah.

Boo to family members being difficult.

I have been playing phone tag and other things trying to get the name brand of Vyvanse filled because I found a pharmacy that had it in stock but not the generic. The generic is on back order until late March, early April, or late April depending on who I talked to "or maybe even later than that". The insurance needed a prior authorization. They denied it. I got a recorded message saying it had been denied and I'd get a letter in 7 -10 business days and to see my policy about why. I'm pretty sure it's because there is a generic available. I'd like to talk to someone but I couldn't find any number to call (the number I got a call from wasn't one you can call back ).

I think with all the issues with access and how it stresses me out I'm going to see about switching to a non stimulant medication and see if it will work. I was venting to a co worker I know who as ADHD and he said he switched to a non stimulant med and has been really happy with it. I know YMMV but it's worth a shot.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

also need a crown in the next few months. in my case, not a surprise, but not a bouquet, either, you know? First time having a female dentist, that was wild. A(maybe Muslim?) man and wife bought the dental practice I go to.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I have several questions...

Me too. Such as is the horse really a co-worker if it's not getting paid?

I just went to the dentist and feel like I got a bad grade because I had a cavity for the first time in several years! Boooooo

Our wings are not tired.

Yes Plei, stress shopping seems totes appropriate. Also, Buffista sprog ages are mind-boggling.

I need to schedule the dentist too. On my list of before I head north tasks.

I'm not happy with my body today. A cold seems to be the gift with purchase from my flight home, and my hip just hurts. I think the painkiller is helping, but I keep twisting the wrong way and regretting it. I did take a nice nap, and DH is picking up takeout.

Grade grubbing at the Dentist!

So, Lola reached out to me directly. I'm meeting with her (and I hope her husband) on Monday.

She seems to be past the denial but still struggling with it and overwhelmed. Which is where you are when you get past denial.

Ooof, that is going to be a very difficult meeting, David.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

So behind, but hugs/hairpats/high-fives to those who need/want them.

David, I am Here for the planning. Whatever you need. And I'm so sorry about Lola.

Yay on Nilly's eldest's bar mitzvah!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

but I'm sulking about everything.

Ohhh hi friend, may I sit in the sulking corner with you.

I am so made at myself for being flakey and missing an event I had spent fair amount of $$ on. I’m not one to normally one to berate myself with inner head voice (generally anger is focused at others/the world) but I am STUCK on dumb dumb dummy dumb dumb on repeat.

Also I have a meeting in 30 minutes I am not prepared for. Off to cram.

Sitting on the edge of my seat here. Brendon lost his phone. Probably had it on top of the car and drove off. The car starts via Bluetooth, so we know he had it when he left. When he was leaving the dog park he couldn't start the car. No responses to my texts or calls to the phone by whoever has it. He tracked it to one place and a bit later it shows it is at a car repair place. He Has Gone There. I asked him to at least take his brother with him. (he didn't) Here's hoping it is a dog park person who has gone to work. I am not at all pleased with him going after it. Ugh. There is an upside and downside to the tracker.
