drink thy wine with a merry heart.

Tonight was the annual frat boys cook the faculty dinner at the winery bash. Naturally I get there early (since i thought it was a half hour earlier than it was) and guess who's there. The coworker who's been giving me trouble acting like my best friend. I got thru the whole bottle of wine before dinner. By myself. Strawberry zinfindal (yes I know that's sissy wine). It was good. I brought home a different bottle of wine.

The math/science club made over 100 bucks with the bake sale today.

Then I found out I didn't get the Welsh fellowship. My good friend did. That's okay. I'm not upset. I need to have surgery. It was foolish of me to try.

As you know I went for the yearly gynie on friday and mammo on monday. Today I get a call from the ob/gyn's office and that made me nervous. Guess what. The lab mishandled my pap smear. (this is not the first time this lab has done or just plain lost specimens). I have to go back next week. It's free with our deep apologies. Well my deductible was met so it was free last time too. GAH.

In the middle of that I found out I have an endocrinologist appt on monday I forgot to put on the damn calender which means i have to race down for a blood draw before work tomorrow.

Day Twenty: Favorite female antagonist



Lilah Morgan is a great villianess since she's not just evil. Well, she is but she was more complicated than that. Sometimes I think she was less evil than a bit greedy and ambitious and wonder if, not unlike Lindsay, got in over her head for the right reasons, like trying to care for a mother with alzheimer's. She was yet another of my smart and snarky choices. Lilah/Wes was hands down my favorite canon ship on Angel.

I even have a story rec. Okay it's my own. I was extraordinarily proud of this one when I wrote it 6 years ago now (yikes!). I haven't reread it but I might regret this but here goes Myself Am Hell







This is also on the Bob Evans Farm. I WANT to get a closer look but this is where they have the Texas long horn roaming. well he's in the field you have to cut thru to get to this fenced off area. I know you can schedule a time to go out there but i haven't looked at it

Lilah was wonderful. I hated Eve as her replacement. Disappointing in so many ways.

UUUUGH to the pap smear retaking. Just ugh.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Eve sucked.

big ugh

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I remembered I'd hated her when she walked onto the screen yesterday morning.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah I always remember that and go find infommericals to watch instead of S5

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Movies are good, too. And some of the cartoons aren't bad on CN this time of the a.m.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

usually i just pop in a HP/ghost hunt/Xfile dvd if i'm desperate. USA usually has on Law & Order or ID Discovery has some forensic thing on

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I don't like watching crime that early in the morning. XD

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I'm good with it. gets the aggression out early

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Ahahahaha. You funny.

[likeadeuce.livejournal.com]

Lilah!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

loved her

[sillymagpie.livejournal.com]

Bleargh to retaking your pap smear.

I'm sorry you didn't get the Welsh scholarship. Take the time to get the surgery and get better. Also tell your friend she owes you pictures and one cute, single, heterosexual Welsh man.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah bleargh indeed

thanks. that would be a good gift

[rain-oubliette.livejournal.com]

On behalf of lab techs everywhere, we're sorry. However, you have a recurrence at that lab... might wanna switch. Hello!? *Head desk*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I did. Both Jackson AND Gallipolis Holzer clinics have now lost stuff. I'm wondering if they're outsourcing some of this shit elsewhere and that's the issue

[rain-oubliette.livejournal.com]

Our lab does pap smears... but most don't. Hell, Memorial Hospital and it's health care group - one that is probably twice (or more) our size - sends their smears to us. The reference lab needs to get it's shit together.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yep which ever it is. them or holzer need to get it together

[winters-queen.livejournal.com]

There is nothing wrong with sissy wines. :D Sorry that the Fake!Co-worker was there though. :/

That sucks about the Welsh fellowship but at least you tried for it, even though the surgery crap came up. You'll have to pick your friend's brain about it as it goes on.

Lab = >:( That...would not make me happy if I had heard that. Who cares if it's free, it's the fact of the matter that Paps are a pain.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

nope nothing wrong with them at all especially when they're that tasty.

Yes I will. I'll be excited to see it.

yeah no kidding

[seatbeltdrivein.livejournal.com]

Ugh, they lost your pap? That sucks. Paps in general suck. ): And bummer about the Welsh thing. I'm sorry you didn't get it, but I'm glad you're not letting yourself get too down about it.

lol The frat boys provided dinner at a winery? Sounds fun! The winery part, anyway. XD

Yay for the bake sale bringing in money!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah right, of all freaking things to lose, like I want to have THAT test redone.

I didn't let myself get too hopeful about the Welsh thing. I never get stuff like that and always lose out to a friend.

It was fun. The boys aren't bad cooks as it turns out.

money is good

printed out the story you did for me. I'm one step closer to reading

[seatbeltdrivein.livejournal.com]

Seriously, ugh.

Yay for frat boys knowing how to cook! I admit it, I'd be leery of letting frat boys feed me anything they created themselves.

XD One step closer! I hope it's to your liking! Haha, I don't even want to think about my to-read list. It's freaking huge.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Yes I was leery at first and still fear they spit in it.

I'm easy to please.

reading list is too big

[caffeinified.livejournal.com]

If I'd had to be there with that two-faced girl I would've been through a whole bottle of wine too.

Wow. I've never heard of a lab mishandling a pap smear. That's so grrr.

I looove that last photo. Someday you should try to get in closer to it. It looks strangely inviting for being tombstones. :)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

wine helped for sure

our lab loses lots of things

thanks. I've been wanting closer for years

[marenfic.livejournal.com]

Ugh, sounds like there were some shitty parts to your day (namely, a gyn revisit- ugh).

But. Wine!!!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah I'm thrilled about having to redo that.

wine is good

[bob_fish.livejournal.com]

Oh, man, that sucks that you didn't get the Welsh scholarship! There's always next year?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah there's next year
