Some jury notices have a small attached form area on them that can be used to postpone the assignment for half a year. You have to fill it out and get it back to them quickly, however. So read the notice thoroughly.
They do and it’s even on my bleeding account that EVERYTHING they give me is to go into non-childproof caps. So how can they mess up one of the arthritis meds? :mad:
My vet does that, but the pharmacy giving drugs to old folks?
grumble grumble stupid parents grumble stupid laws grumble 99% paying for the stupidity of the 1% grumble.
Bu-bu-but, then I couldn’t come back here with a funny story…
I’ve lost 30#. No one notices.
‘Adding insult to injury,’ defined: the flu with menstral cramps.
Shit like this is why I say, “Nature is a Mother…”
I tend to think Nature is male, because females wouldn’t do that to each other.
I wish Americans called this: " # " the Hash. Since the onset of Hashtags, I thought there’d be a shift.
So, you’re hoping he lost 30 Hash?
btw, congrats on the weight loss, G’Lad!
But it’s NOT a “hash.” It’s an octothorpe.
I guess you never met some of my old classmates…
I put my usual winter quilts on this winter, and we couldn’t figure out why we were so hot all the time at night. My in-laws told us about how memory foam sleeps really hot - then it all made sense.
Congratulations! I’m feeling miserable this morning over my six pound Christmas weight gain. 
They would do even worse. 
CVS and flu shots.
“No, we don’t have anymore regular flu shots that would be covered by insurance. We have some inter-dermal ones though for $37 per… if you hurry.”
Ummm… 'scuse me. Aren’t all shots ‘inter-dermal’ by definition? So this is just basically saying,
“…yeah some flu out break huh? Did you see on the news where that kid died yesterday? Shame. Gee, too bad we’re out of that medicine your insurance covers. Seems we have plenty of ‘pay us cash-like’ medicine though. Go Figure.”
CVS. Because there’s Nothing like Price Gouging Medicine during an Epidemic… :dubious:
Insurance covers flu shots through pharmacies?
What a way to start the day. I was turning left this morning, waiting for an oncoming minivan to go through. I timed my deceleration so I wouldn’t have to stop, but as I approached the intersection (I had a green turn light) it slowed down. I realized they were stopping and saw my light change to a green arrow.
Ok, cool my turn. However, horrible turn of events. My coast had taken me farther into the intersection than I intended, so I had to turn a harder radius. And, as I was turning, I noticed that the woman driving the van was SOMEONE I DATED A YEAR AGO. So, while I was turning I did a triple-take. A triple take that would have been harmless, had I been on the path of the turn I usually take.
As it was, I took the turn too long for the cirumstances and hit a curb, shredding my tire and bending the shit out of my rim.
Edit: Oh, and I almost forgot! The jack slipped, so the car landed on it and bent it, rendering it un-usable. Fortunately, I was only a mile away from the babysitters house and she only had one kid at the time, so she was able to load him up and come let me use her jack.
The worst thing about it is, the only reason that coincidence occurred is because I decided to be lazy and snooze a couple extra times this morning. If I had just gotten my ass out of bed, I wouldn’t be out at least a couple hundred bucks for a new wheel and tire. Hopefully there’s no suspension damage.
So, calling around finding a used wheel. Then it’s off to my mechanic so he can check everything out and make sure it’s safe. I hope so, because tomorrow I’m supposed to be taking my SO and her boy to my parent’s to visit for the first time. See? Just keeps getting better.
Oh fun. My new insurance upped my drug co-pay from $10 to $15, but apparently there are exceptions. The co-pay for my Januvia is now $30 a month. (“Because it’s $290 a month without insurance.”)
Made new Dr. Appt for next month, will ask for something different now. Generic Sitagliptin shouldn’t be near this bad.
Also want to talk to him about the prescriptions themselves. Every place I’ve gone in the past they do N refills or ‘refill until X date’. Not this place. I have to get on their website and ‘request’ a refill, which then takes them 2-3 working days to send over to the pharmacy. Since my insurance won’t refill anything too early, I now have to start this process a 4-7 days before I run out, not sooner, not later.
They also send over 90 day prescriptions when my insurance won’t cover more than 30 days at a time. I’m sure on their part they think this makes it easier all around as I only have to request quarterly refills and they can monitor and ask me to come in when necessary, but with my insurance it means I have to ask every goddamned month and this is not going to be acceptable going forward.
Fucking. Pain. In. The. Ass.
Jesus Christ, people. It’s not like these drugs have any potential for abuse. As I joked with my co-worker, I’m not going to be standing in the halls of my apartment building going "psst, hey kid. Do you want some Metformin? It will totally lower your blood sugar!"
Things are still sucking donkey balls here.
Cats are separated. Either Lucy is downstairs and the twins are up here, or vice versa. Only issue with that - when Lucy is downstairs, she meows. Continuously. For HOURS. We’ll have 10 minutes of quiet, someone will breathe wrong, and she starts up again. When she starts, Dot and Mayme freak out. Last night we tried letting Dot out around Lucy, as they usually get along and since all of this blew up, Dot would still come near Lucy. Yeah, Lucy tried to beat the crap out of Dot.
I am tired of all this. TheKid is frustrated and doesn’t want to be here - like I do?
All over cats. Gah.
Chimera, check out this page. Two things: Januvia is covered under the program, and they do consider waivers on some of the eligibility conditions. So it’s probably worth a call.
Good luck.
Damn. You look good! Have you lost weight or something?
Some insurance does. My husband and I had a babysitter on Wednesday night, so we went out to get flu shots together, and we didn’t have to pay anything woohoo! Best parents-of-toddler date ever!
Walmart advertises that they know you’ll love their steaks, so they’re offering to refund you your money, no questions asked, if you aren’t happy with the meat. Just bring in your receipt to where you bought it.
Well, I doubtfully bought some ribeyes there, and they were tough and gristly. Bleah! So I brought in the receipt this morning and was told, “No, we only refund your money if the meat was spoiled or old.”
I wouldn’t have spent $14 on Walmart meat without that guarantee, and now they’re pulling this shit. Lying assholes!
