Editor & copywriter by day, serial hobbyist also by day bc I need a lot of sleep at night. Embroidery, cloud watching, archery, reading, piano, painting, and worrying about the current state of the world (not my favorite hobby but there nonetheless).
Like, yes, gamifying chores by seeing how many dishes I can put away in the 2 minutes it takes to reheat my leftovers in the microwave DID make the kitchen the least cluttered it’s been in a week. Ugh.

Yep, I just had to pay out of pocket in WA bc my insurance refused to cover it. I didn’t need a prescription but I did have to verbally say and sign on the intake form that I was immunocompromised.

My insurance refused to pay for my Covid vaccine I got 2 days ago in WA. I had a note from my doctor but not a prescription.

Well, it turns out I didn’t have to *prove* eligibility, but I did have to say I was immunocompromised AND my insurance wouldn’t cover it so I had to pay out of pocket 😑

But honestly I didn’t even mind. It was all for stuff I genuinely believe in and love doing, so I was happy to do it.

Tried to make an appt at Walgreens yesterday and they already greyed it out so I couldn’t 🙃 hoping maybe my PCP will let me. So frustrating.

Absolutely. I’ve noticed most spellcheckers are autocorrecting to truly wrong things now since AI. Like telling me to change a correct word into a clear typo, just had that happen to me in a Google doc.

I’m a young millennial and I didn’t have measles or mumps immunity when I checked a few months ago too! I’m thinking long lasting “immunity” required herd immunity, which we now don’t have. We WOULD’VE been fine…we were so close to eradicating measles. So. Close.
