I pulled on my big girl accidentally tie-dyed panties

And adulted the hell out of this morning. They called at 9 AM to schedule the nerve conduction test before I could call them. It was later in July and I whined but took it and she then goes oh wait you already HAVE an appt (in the week I wanted) I'm like so they called me and I couldn't talk then and instead of calling me back they just scheduled it, didn't tell me and was all work it out.

So I scheduled my MRI for that day BUT they still don't have the preapproval and I know Med mutual sent a letter (because USPS is sending me screenshots of my held mail) so I need to call them to see if they denied it.

They can't move my endocrinology appointment that they messed up so I told them fine, hold it to sept (the first available) and explain to the doc why I haven't seen them in 9 months. They're going to try an squeeze me in.

The storm hit last night so I did get in pool time even if it was grey. It started to sprinkle so I came in and as soon as I recovered the pool the sun came out and I glared at it for a while. Now it's clouded again so no Northern Lights for me.

Since Thursdays were for community recs so here we go wipbigbang is having a reverse big bang too if you are interested

I also found out the GabaGhoul open call runs til July (yay) and while it caps pay at 5K the stories can be longer double yay because a) they emailed me back within the hour of me asking so they're interactive b) my story is already 3500 words and there is no way to get it scarier in 1500 words. I was wondering if anyone had thoughts but the story has had one death. Do we think two more or three more deaths before the finale?

I talked about how much I love Dead Boy Detectives on Twitter and Lou Diamond Philips chimed in to say how much he loves it too.

On the bad side between conference bills and medical bills I sat in my brother's easy chair and paid out 4 grand. Yikes.

Hail you! And all the sympathies! *hugs*

*snort* Post-covid, our system is getting continually worse, and scheduling not-regular appointments means a lot of waiting time by now in non-emergencies. But everytime I'm frustrated I read something from you guys from over the pond and am like, ok, I shouldn't complain, it could always be worse. /o\ (And my regular appointments are always schedulded right at the visit for the desired interval, and if they mess up they make it work; but I'm really lucky with those two practices).

thanks

Yeah in this case it was my endocrinologist must have decided to take a vacation during the time SHE scheduled me so now I have to scramble.

As for the other dudes, Ohio Health has literally the worst system I have ever seen in my life for scheduling. Like seriously. I've had them LIE to me and my physical therapist and blamed it on a person who didn't work there any more (for a year) and when I told the surgeon (because I am that person) he had me sit down with the office manager over that one. I have a feeling a few people lost their jobs

Always hard to get them to schedule anything convenient in a hospital, right? It's the same over here.
