American Healthcare

I booked my annual checkup 6 months in advance. I asked to be on the waitlist, because generally that gets me in a couple of months early.

Yesterday I get offered a slot for tomorrow, 6 weeks early. So I grab it. Today they call and say that’s a mistake, but someone already took my original appointment.

The earliest they can book me now?

June.

I’m not in dire need of care, but I do have some expiring prescriptions that I’d like to talk to a doctor about and blood work that really should be done annually. This sucks.

Feels like an especially bad time for us to be confirming a jackass to HHS that doesn’t believe in vaccines and is especially averse to mRNA vaccines, despite their incredible safety record and potential for rapid deployment.

Considering increasing student loan payments to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy, you say?

Can’t wait to hear how it was good to stay home and not vote.

Thankfully, I don’t rely on driving day to day. It lets me really enjoy the snow. There’s nothing quite like that special quiet of a night time snowfall.
