  DD, 

  I want to punch my insurance in the face.  They are giving me the runaround like crazy and every phone call just makes me more angry.  I pretty much have decided to just give up on this quest to see a Dr I like at their expense and am going to simple pay OOP.  But I shouldn't have to!  I am getting conflicting reasons for denial and it's making me crazy, but I don't have time to wait.  I'm going to start treatments with my next cycle which can be as early as Monday. Ugh, I don't really cuss, but the last conversation made me want to!

  
  

  Happily Mrs. C

  DD,
  I am just in a bitter funk!!  Even an episode of Daniel Tiger getting a baby sister made me cry and feel jealous of the f-ing tiger family >:P
  If my period could just start already and cycle #24/25/26/27 (whatever it is) could begin that would be great!

  DD, these BCP are making me a bitch with a short temper and I keep snapping at my poor 2 year old and losing my temper which is making me sad. Please let the doctor be confident in the plan this afternoon and not let me cry like a baby when D has his first day of preschool next week. Thank you, Pam

  I feel old today (and I know I'm not). I can no longer handle the days of my youth where I could go out late with friends and wake up early (for cycle monitoring but back then for work!)

  Yep, I got sucked in, too.  I made it to level 105 before it started taking too long to pass, so I moved on to other wonderful time wasters.  I play Sims Free Play now.  It's wonderful and awful at the same time.  

  Happily Mrs. C
