Buffy: Where are the burgers? Riley: Yeah man, I'm starving. Cow me. Xander: I'd love to make with the moo but the fire's not cooperating.

'Lessons'


Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration

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

The Maltese Sandwich

That does sound good. I might do basil instead of mint. Then again, I might need to try the mint just in case it really is just right

The tragedy of the sandwich shop on the next corner closing

Woes! I love places like that. And good coffee!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Okay, please send all your cancer-begone vibes Tim's way this morning. Hopefully they'll be able to remove it all with today's surgery.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Cancer-begone vibes to Tim.

United Healthcare rant: They are "making" me pay $125 for 10mg and $50 for 5mg for a combined one month supply of Trintellix (which my doc prescribed instead of something more typical because of concerns about interactions with my various health issues) -- they wouldn't fill a 10mg Rx in the amount that would have me splitting the pills; had to get two separate Rxs. So, that's $175 per month in Rx copay or whatever it's called. With BCBS, it was $30 and they allowed the pill and a half method. Total money grab on UHC's part. Vultures.

Anyway -- due to the preauthorization hoops, I've been off of it for more than two weeks and, frankly, haven't noticed a difference. DH's company switched from UHC to Cigna as of September 1, so I'm not going to fill it, and I'm going to talk to my doctor about whether I need to be on anything right now, but... I don't even know how Cigna will treat it, but I'm just so effing mad -- because I know a minor issue for me is magnified a thousandfold for some people in much more dire medical and financial situations, and it's so maddening.
