It's Sunday morning at 7 am, and that means it's time to get my journalling on. /random Bake on reference.
After game on Friday, the cough and more problematic hoarse voice came roaring back. I finally had to cancel both games because I had no voice, and I just felt kind of shitty. I felt horribly bad about it, but I just couldn't. Jess convinced me to take the first blast of a steroid dose pack, so I started on that. I was resisting because it makes me moody and bitchy normally. Though as Jess pointed out, I've not taken them with the Astartys or Vyvanse, so the "you must chill" job that it does might blunt some of the side effects. We shall see. I just took my second dose, and my god those things are vile. They have no coating, so they start melting the moment you put them in your mouth, and they are nasty tasting.
Yesterday, I did put on clothes long enough to take my sister to the garage to have her car done. She'll go today to pick it up. She says she'll have BIL take her, but we'll see. I suspect I'll be taking her after game, but we'll see.
I have a game this morning that I'm not dming for, so hopefully that one won't be a problem. I'll just mute until I have to speak, and that'll be fine. This afternoon, I plan to do nothing, except maybe get our Bake Off on. The season's been done for nearly 4 months, I know who wins, but I still want to watch it.
We have another contender in the dress bonanza. I like this one too, but I'm still deciding. Neither of the top contenders have pockets, which is annoying, but I got a little black cross body bag that'll cover me for the basics.
I know it's hard to tell, because literally all I did was throw on a bra and the dress. Just imagine it with my hair looking like it's been brushed and with black flats and a pair of nice tights on. (also, tights, nude or sheer black? I can't decide.)
I would also like to do some work on the cruise, so that I can get everyone checked in. I do need to get travel insurance, just in case we get sick in Vancouver, or on the cruise as well. I'm going to compare some plans, and go from there. We're all basically healthy, so it shouldn't be terrible.
For dinner, I actually need to cook. Pork chops with garlic pirogies and sour cream and sauerkraut (if desired). I think it'll be delicious.
Tomorrow shall be work. I'm sure my counterpart will be back, so I'll be doing a little more phones, little less wheeling and dealing, though we'll see. I know I have a few people to call back about their appts to move them to a different location. Certain insurances don't want to allow patients to schedule at hospital connected radiology centers, because there's a facility fee, and they don't want to pay that. But our system is not sophisticated enough to block it, so people book and then I call them and move them. It's a pain in my ass, and the least favorite part of my job. Fortunately, I can also send them messages through the portal, so sometimes I do that as well.
We've got like five patients this week and I've gotten through to one. Which I 100% understand. I don't answer my phone either. Though on most phones, we come up as Johns Hopkins or at least "Medical." So I'd probably answer.
Time to go forth and prepare for this game. Hopefuly, I can make myself heard with my still-hoarse voice. Everyone have a stupendous Saturday!
