My bitch is going out to all the paperwork I'm having to do right now. In order to get into md Anderson cancer center, they need to have all of my medical records. I live an hour from the hospital that did all of my ultrasounds and biopsy. So I had to drive an hour a sy to sign a release form that had to be signed in person, yet no one had me sign it the day before when I was there, so I made another hour trip for a signature. Then, because I had to make the trip, md Anderson didn't get it in time and I have had to spend all weekend waiting to hear what is going to happen next. So I hope I get a call today. I am just tired of waiting for answers about what the next steps are. I'm tired of dealing with this shit.
They are great! The doctors all really seem to know what they are doing and get back to you in a timely manner(MD anderson has a ton of money so they get the best of the best). Do you live around there? If not I can point you to the safer areas with long term hotels etc-though I'm sure MD anderson will give you that info too.
DH finished his 3 month cancer treatment there last August so we know all about it. PM me about anything!
Ugh. I have to write an abstract for my paper. Can I just admit it says nothing?
This is where you make your paper sound uber important. Let them actually read the paper to realize that you lied embellished.
You are right. This is not normally so hard, but this time I'm writing a pedagogy paper and I am out of my comfort zone -- personal narrative? about my teaching? Puke on a stick.
Dear irate HOA member - why do you think you can treat me like shit and then cozy up to me and ask for information that I'm not certain I'm allowed to make public yet? Especially since it's obvious your goal is to use said information to hang me with (not that you can). Seriously, piss off.
Sincerely, Your friendly neighborhood HOA Board Member
When I responded earlier, I did a little googling. This came up. It has the code for all 50 states. There may be tougher requirements for where you are, but this is a start.

Reminds me of college entrance essays. Let me tell you about my sheltered life experiences, what I learned from them, and why you should care. The following essay will make you hate your job as essay reader almost as much as I hate myself for writing it. I am ashamed a tree had to die for this, but I want to go to college.
Oh my god, you can sleep through puking? If my husband gets up to puke in the middle of the night, I'll be awake the whole night wondering "okay, when am I going to start puking??"
I'm not good with puking. Or being near puking. Or really anything to do with it.
Once, my husband drank too much and told me he was going to be sick. I grabbed my shoes, keys, and coat and went to my sister's for the night.
#wifeoftheyear
No, I can't sleep through puking. I try, but it never happens. I just lay there waiting for it to happen again.
I should have gone downstairs to sleep, but that wouldn't have helped. Our roommate who's room is down there, was also awake all night, cuz my husband apparently screams when he pukes. I should call all our neighbors and apologize for him.
My H's barfing sounds what I imagine a T-Rex sounded like. The one night he's ever spewed was when I went to a concert 2 hours away with friends. I had no idea he was sick. I was texting him throughout the night and he didn't say anything about being sick. I came home to him grey-skinned and laying on the bathroom floor, nearly unresponsive. I called the nurse line and she told me to get him to an ER right away. I don't remember how I got him to the car but I was thisclose to calling an ambulance. He was hyperventilating, his BP was through the roof and he was massively dehydrated. He stayed the night there. I asked him why in the hell he didn't tell me he was sick earlier and he said he wanted me to have fun and not worry about him. Sweet sentiment, but OMG!

Something I mailed to Europe just got returned undeliverable. I spent $$$ on postage and now I've got to figure out why it wasn't delivered. I've sent packages to this address for years and now it doesn't work? WTF.
DH got turned down for another job...so frustrating, guys. I don't understand why he is perpetually struggling to find work. He's smart, kind, and no-drama. Ideal, employee I would think.
The server is still down. Agency wide no one can get on the internet or even check email. We bill on a monthly basis so I only have 5 more days left. I also have time sensitive paperwork that I was really hoping to get done today. Ugh.
icequeen We tried to drop DS2's bottles a few times and it never worked. Then he got the flu and I gave him soy milk (not mentioning it wasn't normal milk) and he was so grossed out he took one sip and threw it at me. Then asked for his pacifier, next night same thing. It is now three weeks later and he hasn't asked for a bottle in over a week. I'm shocked and thrilled especially as he can be so stubborn. It might be an idea for you to try. I think it worked for us because he didn't have to give it up, he decided himself he didn't want it. Good luck!
Excellent, thank you! I bought a NUK learner cup today and filled it with milk but DD is still not interested. But she did go down for her nap anyway. So we will see. Just not looking forward to tonight again! Ugh the pacifier will be another huge hurdle.

My bitch is DH and his cold. It's winter everyone gets sick but you for some reason think you are dying! I'm trying to be nice and help him feel better but going out into the cold last night to get NyQuil is not happening again!
My bitch is the fact that we quit DD's bottles cold turkey last night, and she is VERY attached to her bottle. She usually has one overnight. Well, she woke up at 2:30 and got a sippy cup with milk, threw a fit and didn't go back to sleep until 4:30. DH's alarm woke me up at 5 and I didn't go back to sleep. I am so exhausted. But the bottle has to go. I sure hope it gets easier from here.
My son is about to turn 1yo. We are going to have to start weaning the bottle soon. Not looking forward to it!
I hope things get easier and your daughter makes the adjustment quickly.
Good luck to you! I know it definitely a trying time for mama and baby. I think the best way is the do it cold turkey. She doesn't seem to have any interest in drinking milk from anything except a bottle. Let me know if you need any extra support!!

I got sushi for lunch and I got to yell at a telemarketer. I am feeling better.
"This is obnoxious asshole from a company that has called you multiple times. How are you" "Not well because I've told you guys to stop calling me years ago." "Well ma'am we've never called you before." awkward silence "Ok then. Stop calling and my car has 200,000 miles, so unless you are going to pull a plan out of your ass that covers that, we are done." "You are right, our plans stop at 149,000, but I can see our records and we have never called you before..." "SERIOUSLY?!?" Beep.
Dude. I'm already pissed off. Clearly my vehicle doesn't qualify, you don't try to convince me whether you have called me before or not. "You are correct ma'am. That doesn't fall under any plan we offer. I apologize for the inconvenience. I will take you off our calling list and I hope you have a great rest of your day" is the correct response. Not "nuh-uh, we didn't call you before".
And I realized when the number popped up (it is similar to j's pedi's office) that we forgot his well child appointment today. Yay.

Thank you for the well wishes. I'll give an update tomorrow at some point. In the mean time I did end up telling MH, got him to feel the lump to make sure I wasn't BSC and he said yes it's close to the surface and get it looked at.I'm trying to stay away from Dr. Google. My appointment is for 7:45 tomorrow, first thing. I'm really hoping it's nothing.
When I responded earlier, I did a little googling. This came up. It has the code for all 50 states. There may be tougher requirements for where you are, but this is a start.
California isn't in there, but I assume our fire code must be pretty intense, as I live in an apartment that is less than 800 square feet and we have 4 detectors. That are all linked and when one goes off, they all go off.
Huh. I kind of assumed it did since it was 100 pages long and it said "state-by-state" requirements. I figured that meant all states. But yeah, I'm sure California is pretty insane and might change more often than they were comfortable with putting in a document like that.
4 detectors for an 800 square ft apartment seems reasonable, though. Our last apartment was a little over 800 and had 4. One in each bedroom, one in front of the oven (open the oven door and the heat hit the thing), and one in the living area.

To contrast that, my 1700 square foot home in Washington State has 3 - one in the upstairs hall (within 5 feet or so of each bedroom door), one in dining room (right off the kitchen) and one in the living room (up on the vaulted ceiling in that room). By WA state code, I only need 2 of those 3.

I have heard such amazing things about md, so in anxious to start my treatments and surgeries with them! They have great reviews for the plastic surgery part as well, which makes me happy because if I'm losing my boobs, I want some nice looking fake ones! Haha. I live 5 1/2 hours from there, so any hotel options you know of will be a great help! Especially because I have a ton of family by my side who will need rooms.
Ah, another bitch. I was hoping a customer would do this today or tomorrow so I would remember to post about them.
Let me remind you, I'm a drive thru teller at a bank so this makes sense. Do NOT pull up to my window telling me to "Wake up!" There's a 99.999% I'm not asleep considering I have people pulling up all hours and people calling. Also, I'm not the other teller's "helper" I'm just another teller. I can do the same exact thing she can and honestly a little faster. Ugh, I'm not a people's person.

My grandfather went there on and off for a few years (lymphoma) and they had nothing but positive comments about the place and the people. They were also great for my grandmother (who wasn't a patient). They always had projects she could work on while he was having treatment. My grandparents lived in a motor home while they were down there, but I think they were in a park with mostly other patients.

I'm bitching because CD3 seems worse then yesterday or day before. I mean I'm happy it's here and hopefully almost over cause I am really looking forwards to finally being able to TTC this month but I have the worst cramps right now, I'm super emo, pretty soon my hubby and son are going to bite back...lol...oh and it's Monday!!
My bitch is my neck, specifically the nerve I pinched in it this morning which has stopped me from being able to sit, turn my head, pick things up, drive, basically do anything but lie here on the couch and feel bad for myself. It's giving me lots of time to think about what feels like CD1 on the way cramps , and the fact that work will no longer be paying for my phone and that's one more bill we just don't need right now.
My bitch is at the patient who told me to go fuck myself when I explained to her why we need to see a valid nonexpired photo ID before we can ring up any controlled substance. Because it's totes my fault that your license expired two years ago.
I worked in a Pharmacy during college and I can attest that this was where I learned that many people are a-holes. GDI I'm not setting the prices-that's your insurance! No, you having to wait for your prescription is not a grandiose plot to make you wander the store and buy more things; believe it or not there are other people that want drugs too! Yelling at me isn't going to get your doctor to call me back any faster; I've left four messages.

This is my favorite bitch of Monday Bitchfest so far. Telemarketers are the WORST!

My supervisor got an assignment today to Japan. I will officially be surrounded by idiots once he's gone! No one to save me from the moronic ramblings of idiot Capt's and my asshole commander.
ETA: I'm very happy for him, but selfishly wish he didn't get an assignment (FFMC?)
I am starting to get frustrated because my mom and her husband closed on a house this afternoon and they were supposed to be starting the moving process this afternoon.
She hasn't called/texted me to let me know what they're doing even though I have been in communication with her all day. I get the feeling that I am going to hear from her later about how rude I am because I haven't been there to help. Sorry, but I'm not going to drive half an hour to nowhere when I don't know what's going on. Grrr.

I seriously have heard nothing but good things, but I'm having so many problems with the woman in admissions. She has been a complete bitch and I always get off the phone with her crying. It's like, "bitch, you work in a cancer center. Even when you may be having a shitty day, the people calling you, are having the worst. Have some compassion"
