    My daughter texting me at 9:30 a.m. to tell me she has bad news, and can she call me after work tonight. She doesn't get out of work til 7. This leaves me way too many hours to overthink what she could possibly need to tell me. And. I. Hate. It.

    I hate it when people do this!

    People who can't make their own damned phone calls and, instead, we have to do three times the work to do it for them.

    And my coworker's phone alarm. Which goes off ALOT.

    Husband’s blood pressure will not go down to a level that makes the VA pharmacist happy, despite the blood pressure meds…

    VA pharmacist is clearly gearing up to saying no more coffee for him.

    OMG

    This will make life so hard

    Very aggressive woman almost ran me over, pushing past me to get off the plane. Relax lady. You're still going to wait almost an hour for your luggage (true story).

    "Excuse me" goes a long way.

    Something has definitely changed and I'm not sure what it is. There are probably some moving parts that I don't understand.

    The quality of healthcare and customer service within healthcare which was always pretty bad is way worse, there are very few actual doctors available to see patients, and the wait is incredibly long.

    Also many people of my acquaintance have found that insurance is harder to get and keep and is more expensive.

    Update on the client who can't pick up a phone to make a call.

    FOUR emails later trying to get the transcripts he wants us to get for him and I have had it. I snarked at him in my head the first couple times before answering politely with "when we get it, you'll get it" but he's still emailing about getting it today.

    I was in the middle of aggressively typing a response to him telling him exactly what we have to go through A SECOND TIME NOW and to give him the phone number to call his own damned self when my boss called me into his office for another reason.

    Now I've lost my momentum and thinking I should blatantly ignore the last email.

    Getting rid of the newsfeed more than irks me but it's ok. Lots of us have now found a new app to move over to. It's called Lose It. When this newsfeed shuts down we are all off over there

    I've been using Lose It! for years to log my food but it doesn't really have the same kind of community connections.

    I feel disappointed,
    I feel let down,
    I feel sabotaged.
    I was cruising along slowly losing weight, logging all my food, sharing with my friends.
    I see little point in having this app now.
    The whole situation irks me.
