(hugs) Antigen. I’ve been thinking about you.
Thanks. I’m an emotional wreck, on and off, but damned if I’m going to let this stuff kick my ass. I spent hours yesterday price-shopping for the meds for my IUI next month, because Kaiser quoted me $450 and I almost died. The pharmacy tech there was really sweet and told me confidentially that Kaiser sucks with regards to fertility stuff, and I should go online for coupons and take the prescriptions to Costco or Walmart or something. I struck gold with WalMart, finding both a wonderful pharmacy tech who took the time to look everything up for me, and a much-reduced price. Looks like about $280 total now, which is still a lot but more manageable.
We’ll start the process next week, I think, assuming this heartburn and headache don’t mean my uterus is already occupied. Bring on the needles.
I’ve found that, in the realm of baby-making, it always pays off to look for deals. Everyone wants to sell you something, and they’ll usually give you the first hit for free 
Good luck hon… I’m sorry it’s come down to this for you.
Good luck Sattua and Antigen. I’m in IF hell at the moment as well.
Antigen, if you need meds again let me know - I belong to a group that sells/gives away non-expired unused med’s. You as well Sattua, if you need P4, etc., and are with an uncooperative doctor.
Good luck Sattua & Antigen.
My mini rant today is food. I am starving but I don’t want anything. I cracked open my lunch kit and noshed a little veggies before deciding I couldn’t eat another bite of what I had, so I went for a soup and sandwich and noshed only a quarter of the sandwich and a couple spoonfuls of soup before I couldn’t eat them else I’m sick.
Now I’m sipping a coffee and hoping this doesn’t happen tonight because I have class (first one this semester!) and I’ll need to eat something so I can pay attention instead of wanting more food.
I don’t know if I’m just being picky or if this is related to being kinda sick still from the creeping crud.
Snow already and get it over with damn it. And pick the number of inches we’re going to get and stick with it, weather forecasters. I’ve heard everything from a dusting to six inches. This had better be the last snowstorm of the season. I am so done with winter. For cripes sake, daylight savings time is this weekend.
Oh, joy. And then we’ll have to listen to all the bitching and moaning from people who think having to reset their clocks is THE WORST PAIN AND INCONVENIENCE EVAH.
Far from the worst, but it’s still a pain, and IMO completely unnecessary. Standard, daylight, split the difference, pick something else altogether, I really don’t care, just pick something AND STICK WITH IT!!!
Stupid thing at work. Grrrrrrr.
HEY! Workplace griping is down the hall.
The KittenCam is down. This makes me sad.
You all three are in my thoughts and prayers if you’ll accept them - and frankly, I want to thank you - you all put my latest bitchfest in perspective - and for that, me, my husband, and my dog all thank you. I’m so sorry for the pain you’re going through, but I’ve learned an important lesson tonight - my bitching about petty nonsense is seriously self indulgent, and frankly, I don’t even care that much about my stupid annoyances in the whole grand scheme of things, nor does anyone else. So I’m over my stabby feelings towards dumb commercials that I’ve come to hate and was going to rant about and am going to eat some ice cream and hug my dog.
Missy is starting to get some perspective. Heck - at 47, it’s about time, ain’t it?
Again, ladies, hugs and prayers, if you’ll have 'em. 
I was in the bathroom at work yesterday, and the person before me had dropped a very smelly deuce. I grabbed the air freshener and was spraying it around when another lady walked in - I felt like declaring, “It wasn’t me! Honest!” 
It is far from unnecessary.
If DST is really so absolutely wonderful, why are we not doing it year-round instead of wasting so much time and effort changing pseudo-time-zones twice a year?
I think a reasonable solution, that doesn’t screw up everyone’s sleep cycle, scheduling, etc., would be to split the difference and just make that the year-round standard.
You should be ashamed for being stupid enough to actually think this.
Welcome to my ignore list.
I’m on day 3 of being depressed for no reason I can see, unless it’s hormonal. I know I need to get out of the house, but it’s been too fucking cold and windy lately. This weekend is supposed to be sunny, so hopefully I can get out and go hiking. That usually helps.
I know it’s the pit so you can call names if you like but what the frack? You’re sort of new here; maybe you should dial it back a bit.
I’d be a grumpy bitch too, if I lived in the Jersey Swamps.
