it's been a weird day...
ryan called me while i was on the bus to work to ask for his doctor's phone number. tonight he's all bandaged up after a run in with concentrated hydrogen peroxide that reacted with the acetone already on his hands. yay chemical burn. after several excruciating hours in the er he is home and highly pain killer drugged.
i got my wop for tomorrow, so imbolc will go as planned. i ended up being wop'ed today and wandered for a bit worrying about the boy and feeling a bit lost in general. a lot has gone on this week, and i'm mentally and physically exhausted, and today i couldn't breathe all day...it was just...exhausting. on top of it..i have no fmla and they're sending me to a second opinion doctor to see if i'm really not faking it. here's the bullshit of it though...the dude they're trying to send me to is in willioamsboro, nj. are you serious. new fucking jersey!?! there's not ONE second opinion doctor who will work with aetna in all of philadelphia? i had to call the lady today and inform her that i don't drive and i have no way to get to williamsboro, nj. i'm not taking njt and getting lost in jersey because aetna wants to be a dick. it's not like i'm milking an oji. i'm not getting paid for this. it took 6 months for my doctor to be sure she had a lead on it...what makes them think THIS guy is going to think of cushing's disease all on his own? anywho, the woman on the phone didn't seem sympathetic to my non-driving plight. i may be a witch, but i have not yet mastered that nose twitchy thing, so who knows. in addition, they made the appointment the day i'm supposed to be in california visiting my dad...so i'm going to have to reschedule anyway. i haven't seen my dad in 6 months...fuck you people. for a claim SWA won't approve anyway? what am i supposed to do with this?
it hasn't been all bad..just exhausting. started the last dresden files book. finally! tomorrow's imbolc ritual should be good. then sunday is...well you know what it is...STEELERS SUPERBOWL SUNDAY!
there will be a more cohesive post later...that's it for now...
ryan,
fmla,
work
