    The American healthcare system infuriates me. I really need to see a doctor about something I've been putting off (plus just a regular physical), but there aren't really any doctors here in the state I'm in that take my insurance. I should be able to go to a doctor without financial worry. Beyond upset.

    I'd just like to leave this beautiful message right here....keep Ireland in your thoughts this week!

    Jenny, do you know how I could get a couple of those buttons people are wearing in the video? I have a couple of friends here who would love them.
    I'll look into it, don't have one myself but will see if I can source some
    Thank you! :smile:
    So I was clicking around on something George Takei had posted about the Equality Vote in Ireland and came across this http://www.yesequality.ie/ If you scroll down to the "shop" there's a photo of the buttoms - but none actually in the shop. Maybe they've run out? I didn't look to see about international shipping.

    why can't she make up her mind? last week it was 'take Friday off', yesterday morning it was 'come in for a few hours', yesterday afternoon, it was 'maybe I'll just check in'
    :anguished:

    I just need to know if you need me to come in or not so I know if I can go camping or not.

    Don't you hate that?? My bosses did that to me this week.. So I made plans to garner income through the week.. Now it's 'we need you to come in'.. Errgh.. How frustrating!

    I have 1 urgent care place I am able to go to insured. I don't trust urgent care very much, haven't had the most positive experience with them (not this particular one, but ones in the past). I guess I have no choice. And if I need anything further, gonna have to pay an arm and a leg. So much stress.

    Quite funny you should say that. I had the exact opposite experience with an Urgent Care place over here. My 'doctor' is actually a clinic (cuz nobody wants to take Obamacare apparently) and they wouldn't give me an appointment when I was sick. I found that the Urgent Care place takes my insurance and got into them within an hour or so. I was in an out in 20 minutes with a prescription and a 'visit summary report'.

    Update! The urgent care place doesn't actually take my insurance. So I am uncovered where I am. Wonderful.

    That blows Sam. My friends parents had the same issue. They used to fly back to N.Y. (from Florida) to go to their doctors appointments cuz they had no coverage in Florida.

    Sorry to hear that Sam! I don't want to suggest this, but worst case scenario, go to the ER. I'm pretty sure they will take your insurance. You tried calling the number on your card and asking them to help you find the closest Dr.? I don't know what else to suggest..

    Visiting home in 3 weeks and I have 3 doctors appointments (hopefully 4) scheduled. It's a pain.

    5 years ago today was my first Pearl Jam show! :) After being a fan for 2 years, finally seeing them live was an unforgettable experience. The first night of MSG often gets overshadowed by the 2nd, but it really held its own, too. Nothing more special than seeing your favorite band in that building.

    Life is a really weird thing.. It comes so quickly, and ends just As quickly.

    Have had Sirens stuck in my head all day after the incident at work today.. You'd think after s year working in the ER I'd be used to this.. Maybe I'm just not calloused enough to be used to it. I don't know.. I just know that for some reason today's incident really fucked with my head..

    My car is on that major recall list...I'm already at risk since I'm so short, I have to sit unusually close to the steering wheel. So either way, if I get into an accident and the airbag goes off...it won't be pretty.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    What's horrible is that those Takata fuckers knew how bad their airbags were. Reminds me of that scene in Fight Club where Ed Norton is explaining if a recall is more expensive than a lawsuit, they don't do the recall. Fuckers.

    Be safe.
