Da Tamminator: Morning. 🙂
Mare: Morning
Da Tamminator: how was your weekend?
Mare: tender. I felt fragile for most of it. Nicely quiet, though. Got *nothing* done (boo!) How was yours?
Da Tamminator: How do you feel now? :/
Mare: much, much better.
Da Tamminator: did the doctor suggest any sort of followup?
Da Tamminator: yay 😀
Mare: only if it came back, really.
Mare: It truly boiled down to “ummm. no clue. but it stopped. so, yay!”
Da Tamminator: Fuckers.
Da Tamminator: how can they say Idunno and mean it? *Something* caused it. They just didn’t do enough testing to find out what.
Mare: Well, I’m kind of glad that they didn’t (from a pocket book stance and also from a “i just wanted the heck outta there” stance as well. And because I am an 80’s girl, a buffalo stance to boot)
Da Tamminator: 😛
Da Tamminator: insurance, bitte? Real doctor fu?
Mare: Do I have insurance? Nope.
Mare: Do I have money to acquire insurance? Nope.
Mare: :/
Mare: But I will neverevernever go back to Hospital o’Doom** if I can help it.
Da Tamminator: how much is college insurance?
Da Tamminator: *right*
Mare: No idea.

Dear FL,

Apparently just bopping along and making sure that The Girlie had insurance does not work anymore. However, I am poor and not currently monetarily employed.
Do any of you guys know what/how college insurance might cost or who the best group to go to would be? What is considered a good deal?

Danke!
~Mare

Dear My Friends and Family in DFW,

Um…
You OK? Property damage at a minimum? Cats (them what has ’em) fine? Let me know.

Dear Body,

What? Fuck off! /eddieizzard voice.

Dear Idiots,

Yeah. Its rain. We have discussed this before. You do NOT need to slow down to a crawl – and believe me 40 in a 65 is a crawl – because there is water coming from the sky. I swear to Rudy that it will rain again. Now get the hell out of my way. Or I will KEEL you.

In which we are plotting for the week/end

First and foremost, thanks to everyone yesterday for the well-wishes/advice/tips. I appreciate them all.
Second, the weekend plans looks summat like dis:

>WED — going to either Hideout or Warehouse. I’ve never been to the latter so if I am to go, I would need a guide and directions. There is also the dimmest of possibilities that I could go to Elysium as its free & retro-goth night. Which is always good.
THURS — staying in/house cleaning (whoo-hoo, just a crazy party lady I am!)
>FRI — staying in/maybe getting some friends over for cards & cocktails
>SAT — was going to go to Carnivale but the tickets are $35 *each*, with the festivities ending at/around 1:30 AM. Plus, parking is atrocious around the Event Center. I will most likely be going to Elysium as that seems to be the consensus amongst the friend types.
However, I had also thought about heading into DFW and hitting the Church but a.) haven’t been there in a long while and b.) ….something. I guess it IS still under consideration. Anyone up for a road trip back to my old stomping grounds?

Mare: hey, guess what?
Tam: what?
Mare: my sinuses squeak when i suck through my nose
Mare: I’d say “breathe” but that would be a misnomer.
Tam: oo!
Mare: *squeaker squeak squeaken*

Home grown meme

A question popped into my head this morning. What are your LJ filters? Are they public/friends by invite/private? What is your readership there? I know that some of you guys have only 2 filters that you use – Public and Friends Only. Sooo…is that a choice or just not wanting to mess with it?

For me:

FRIENDS — public
STORIES — invite ; Works in progress, notes, plot brainstorm, character descriptions, etc for stories that I am writing.
BOOKS TO READ — private (personal list of books i want to read, as seen here on el-jay)
101 in 1001 — this is mostly to do the challenge
HEALTH — invite ; where I am tracking my workouts/eating/thoughts on this sort of stuff.

What are YOURS?

Inquiring minds want to know.
