And I didn’t even get flowers first…

Back in September I got a letter from Walgreens telling me that starting January 1, 2012 they would no longer be able to fill prescriptions under the Express Scripts/Federated Insurance plan. It was a very…diplomatic…way of saying, “We’re terribly sorry that we care so much more about your health than your insurance company does. But we needed to tell you the truth.” There was never a single notification from the insurance company about this change…. Keep reading…And I didn’t even get flowers first…

Banana Bread…

Oh Spam…

The spam filter on the comments is a priceless feature. Because when there is an influx of spam comments, there is AN INFLUX OF SPAM COMMENTS. And it’s nice to not have to worry about dozens…or hundreds…of useless shit because somebody needs a fucking hobby. When things hit the spam file, I’ll peruse them to make sure something legitimate didn’t get caught, and probably 95% of what’s there is just utter gibberish. But then there… Keep reading…Oh Spam…
