beanside"Whoa, we're halfway there..." It's Wednesday y'all! Let's see what today brings! (Honestly, the last 10 days has been so buck wild in politics, maybe I shouldn't say that. But sure, lets see)
Yesterday was busy at work, but not horrible. I took 50 calls, which isn't bad. I still had some quiet stretches where I could not talk. I got someone who had a breast lump in for a mammo same day, which always makes me happy. She had called on Monday and I sent a message to put her on the wait list, but then I was scheduling another patient for the same thing. She took an appointment on Friday, but I saw that same day appt, so the moment I got off the phone, I pulled up her chart and gave her a call. And I was able to put her right in. I sent a message to the add on email to let them know that I was able to pull it off. Soon after, I got kudos from my manager, which is another case of "why?" I mean, she was my patient. I had the email in my inbox where the site said "we've got nothing." Why was it surprising that I'd remember that the patient needed an appointment?
The doggo is having allergies like whoa, and I wasn't able to get him an appointment until Tuesday at his normal vet. I'm going to try an online vet. We'll see how that goes. He's just so itchy and uncomfortable, and I feel bad for him. Last night, I was ready to go to the ER vet, but he perked up, so we waited.
My paycheck will be about $200 more than usual thanks to my overtime, which is not bad at all. I'll definitely take it. I'm working on this Saturday, and then off for two weeks, then working the last two of August. Unless people aren't able to work, in which case I'll pick up a couple of more shifts. I'm nothing if not flexible.
We have Blades in the Dark tonight, which will be fun. The team is in the middle of a heist, so we'll pick that up and see where they go with it.
When it comes to being the DM/GM, I'm definitely a rule of cool DM, in that the rules have a certain amount of flexibility if my players want to do something truly awesome. I'm also a fuck around and find out DM. I will remember the shit you pulled three years ago, and it will come back to haunt you. I say this apropos of nothing, obviously.
Still checking my email every five minutes to see if my beef share is ready yet. I want. I have been dying for a really good steak, so I'm planning to choose the bag that contains a nice ribeye or two.
I will say, after buying locally sourced meat, I'm having a really hard time contemplating ordering from Aldi or Costco again. It was such a profound difference in taste and texture. Since the first round of Covid in 2020, meats have been dicey, with pork and chicken frequently tasting vaguely rancid. So far, none of the farm raised stuff has tasted bad. It's all tasted like normal everyday meat.
Okay, time for me to get myself together for work. Everyone have a wonderful Wednesday!
