That's "funny," my insurance won't cover Zepbound even though it's approved for severe sleep apnea. But for diabetes, they'll approve Ozempic without a thought.
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have the distinct impression insurance companies use some big spinner wheel from a game show to determine whether or not they'll approve a given medication or procedure.

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

Sounds close enough to something sexual to have me making giggle.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Okay, we made it home by 10:40, so I missed my goal of asleep by 10 a.m. And now I'm not quite sleepy enough to try to nap. I suspect I'll be ready for a nap after lunch, though.

Ha, ha, ha! I see what you mean.
I decided breakfast out would be fun, though it's actually more like brunch, I guess. Even eating outside because it's pleasant, breezy and not very humid.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Ooof, we have to be at the hospital at 6 am tomorrow.
I hope getting there early means as little waiting around as possible and that everything comes back very boring and benign!

It's such a racket, Dana. Effing effers.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The surgeon said it was actually 2 distinct lumps instead of 1, but said their appearance was more on the benign side, but obviously they won’t know for sure until the lumps are biopsied.
I hope you get to call him Lumpy Space Princess for a while.
I desperately need to vacuum and it's not even a task I especially dislike. And yet, the housework inertia has me in its grip.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have misplaced my car keys (they are obviously somewhere in my house because I drove home yesterday but not in any of the usual places I have tried to train myself to leave them) so I took the bus to work today, and the bus I was on they couldn't close the luggage compartment at the stop before my stop so there was going to be an indeterminate delay so I just walked, so I really feel like getting here at all should count as my full work day. And yet, emails keep coming in with stuff I don't entirely know how to do (my boss had trigger finger surgery yesterday and will be out for at least a week, someone from another department is supposed to be covering the stuff that is above my paygrade but that is not, I think, all of it?). There is not enough coffee in the world.
