I will post this in both spots, I guess?

Doctors appointment edition

Tiny Victory: My doctor dug around in his samples and gave me over two weeks of an expensive medication I’ve been curious to try. :star_struck:

Tiny Complaint: I’m a masker nearly 100% of the time, but I took it off for less than like… 3 minutes of our appointment while I was explaining something to him and he coughed uncovered just directly onto my face. It was shocking and I think he felt like he was just “clearing his throat” because he said NOTHING afterwards. :frowning_face:

My burrito takes 2mins to heat in the microwave and is infinitely better in the air fryer but takes 23 minutes. I find it offensive that it takes so long for a delicious burrito.

Internet is down again, but this time it’s just me. Rep says a person can’t come out until Aug 22nd!! I have never experienced this kind of insanity with internet but I guess it’s time to cancel. Why can’t things you pay for just work?

This is what I’m saying! Also just a few years ago I had an issue with the internet and they came out the same day. I don’t get it?? And because I live on the edge of town, my options are super limited to three equally terrible companies

Update on TC: after begging the chat rep for a phone number for 30 min, he finally gave me one and I called, yelled at a phone robot for another 30 minutes to speak to a representative…literally had to make 3 different calls to finally get a rep because the phone robot would hang up if I said “speak to representative” at the wrong time. Found the correct secret time to say speak to a representative and finally got transferred. Waited on hold for another 20 minutes, and then talked to a lovely woman who had the same name as me which we giggled about, who pressed a few buttons in the system and fixed my internet in literally 3 minutes. And the chat rep wanted me to wait 2 weeks! Why do companies hide phone numbers and make us chat with people when phone people can fix things in 3 minutes???

This room has a plethora of windows and is normally very bright, but apparently not on dark days

We just got new lamps after I’ve been agonizing over the purchase for literally years. I should have done this 5 years ago.

No one wants a pink feather lamp? I’m not seeing requests for links. Weird.

While they suit you perfectly, much to my Nana’s consternation pink has never been my colour
