The 'as of late'
Yay for having insurance and your doctor jacking you up on antidepressants! /sarcasm. Life is beginning to bore me. Fucking daily grind.
So this shit with Nathan's arm is finally moving again. He finally reached his 6 month post surgery mark and was released at max medical improvment in early October. So now, we get said note from the doctor and give to the attorney and he plays with workers comp to get Nathan's disability rating and debates on whether or not to send him to another doctor to get another one. Said the lawsuit should be done in a minimum of 60 days from the time he gets the disability rating. And knowing worker's comp, they'll take their sweet ass time so as to pay him worker's comp until the November 23rd ending date so they can take a nice chunk out of the settlement. But that's okay. $2000 off of $50,000 isn't shit. Fuck Verizon and their goddamn bullshit. This is so rewarding for me because of all the pregnancy-abortion-termination thing from way back when. I grin every time Nathan mentions how much money we'll be getting. And a new apartment to boot. Yum. But the fact that it's coming after xmas sucks because it means shit for xmas purchases. But it means big savings on after x-mas sale items. Also yum.
On a not-so-good note, my car's EGR valve is giving me problems again and I believe that I've got a shorted spark plug. Yay for needing a tune-up. Also, my factory stereo fucked up. I was leaving for work one morning and it all of a sudden cut out. I looked down and both the stereo & CD player's LCD's were blank. I look back down and the CD player one came back on for a sec. "Eh, loose wire." I was thinking. lol. More like, something IN the stereo fucked up so I can only use my CD player and I can't see the time/volume on the stereo...considering only the Power, Volume up and Volume down buttons operate >_>;; So we spent $100 to get me a decent radio that has mp3 playback (oooooh... 150 track cd.....) and hours of trying to find out what FUCKING stereo system is in my car so I can get the appropriate fucking wiring harness. Figures that I'd have the most rare one and the last place I checked was where the wiring harness was located >_>;;
Work is bleh. not good, not bad. I need a raise. And considering I've been there one year as of October 15th or so, I'll be getting one soon. Not to mention I was employee of the month for Sept. Yay?
The apartment is bland to me..I think I need some new posters and some paint. Problem is that Nathan and I can't agree on a color. Joy. I want red, he doesn't. He wants black, I don't fucking think so. I suggest a sand-ish tan color, "it feel too doctor's-office to me". >_> I suggest jade green... "ew." *sigh* I think we decided on gray. Not sure how I feel about drab nineties walls. o_O
On a health note, I'm back on Phentermine. Less than 2 months and I've lost over 21 pounds. BAD thing is I was on Lexapro for 5 weeks. It ended up agitating my obsessive compulsive picking and I scarred up my legs and arms pretty bad. So I called and left the dr a message, she calls me in some Cymbalta. Seems to have improved my mood generally but when I get angry, it doesn't stay with me a long time like it use to, but I get violent. Possible future problems there >_> And I seem to be getting random tiny zits on my body, which I've never had before. Talked to the dr, it might be the fact that I took Lexapro, being an SSRI, and then a day later took Cymbalta, an SSNRI. They could be having a strange reaction together. I notice that the insert for an SSRI says to wait at least 2 weeks before taking an MAOI after you take an SSRI, but an SSNRI is similar. I don't know. I'm rambling and I have to be at work at 6:30 am. Then I have 1 off day. Then I work 9 days in a row.
Ah, the joys of retail.
