that holding hands meme, with one hand labelled "mega man" and one hand labelled "samus" and the thing between them "e-tanks"

our insurance has been pestering us to get 90-day prescriptions, so we did, and went to fill it today

took the prescription to the nearest pharmacy. They didn't have it in stock, fair enough, went to another one that did have it in stock

they tried to fill it, and the insurance denied it saying they only allow 30-day prescriptions.

????

but it gets better: we gave up on getting the full 90 days since we need it tomorrow (they can't do a partial fill since it's a controlled substance, so the other 60 days prescribed are just lost)

got a 30 day fill of it

and the insurance gave the pharmacist a message for us, telling her to tell us that they would *really prefer it* if we would get 90-day prescriptions

??????????

well that was a fiasco and a half

responses to this would be appreciated, if anyone has reassuring words

i'd like to get away from at least this unimportant thing that our brain has decided to assign undue importance to

we still can't really listen to that piece without being reminded of the whole thing which is a shame because it's a really good piece of music

like seven or eight years ago we won a raffle a composer was doing for a custom composition, but we misunderstood what the thing was for and asked for an arrangement of a piece we liked because we wanted to have sheet music to try to play it ourselves

it feels like we really squandered that opportunity and also insulted the musician by implying their original work wasn't worth anything or something

and they even went and made a recording of it too, meaning they had other musicians playing the different parts

you ever just remember an embarrassing thing from like eight years ago and feel awful?

how is everyone doing this afternoon?

imagine if i-frames existed outside of video games

get a paper cut and then for the next half second you can take a bullet to the heart and not be hurt at all

i wonder, has there ever been someone named Hugh Mann

it'd be nice if follow requests had timestamps on them

where did doctor wily get the money for that castle and all those robots anyway

we don't have a pdf viewer on our computer right now and kind of need one
