worst week ever!

I have had a bad week.

On Sunday I was told my job is in jeopardy (which is kind of B.S. since I have family medical leave)

Monday my tooth that needed to be pulled started to really hurt so that sucked.

Yesterday my doctor told me she wants me on short term disability because my migraines are so bad.

Today I had my appointment with my dentist who decided I needed three teeth pulled. The tooth in question as well as one that I had a shitty root canal done on by another dentist and my wisdom tooth (all of which happen to be in a neat little row)

So, dental surgery out of no where.

After TWO hours of that. because the root canal'd tooth has a root that is curved and very difficult to remove. I was three teeth down.

It's 5pm when I was done with the teeth extraction fun. I take my prescription to the pharmacy. Where they tell me:

1. Dumbass D.D.S. wrote for a medication that is no longer made and

2 he wrote a controlled substance on the same form as a regular prescription.

Now the medication that is no longer made contained Demerol. Demerol is a class 2 controlled substance. In other words it's the highest class narcotic you can legally get. This brings me to issue two. you have to write a class two controlled substance on it's own form. That's the law in every state and something everyone who works with prescriptions "should" know (i am a certified pharmacy tech plus i work for a prescription benefits manager.)

So I'm at the pharmacy and I don't have a prescription for pain medications because the dentist is closed. I had to call the after hours line. The chick at the answering service doesn't seem to understand or really care that I just had THREE teeth pulled and the Novocaine is wearing off.

This frustrates me. And since this has been the worst week ever my frustration level is at an 11. My response to any extreme emotion it to cry. So I call my mother who looses it. She drives to the pharmacy to check on me. Calls the after hours number for the dentist office and yelled at the girl.

I have now have to wait for the on call dentist to call me back. When he does he seems to be inconvenienced by my need for a pain medication that actually exists. He talks to the pharmacist (anyway) and gives me a enough medication for tonight.

I have to call the dentist office tomorrow and have them call me in something real maybe just Demerol so I can sleep the next two days.

Now what I haven't mentioned is that yesterday I was in a lot of pain from the tooth that needed to be pulled. Because of the pain and the fact that I had to work I called the dentists office (just to be clear this is a national dental network). I was seen there before in May. However, the dentist I saw was no at this location. Since I had not seen any of the dentist that are at the location they wouldn't write me in a prescription. But I could come in and wait to see if there was an opening for me to see one of them (but by the way they where very busy so they couldn't promise anything). I can't do this because job in jeopardy. This pissed my mom off yesterday.

The whole thing today (coupled with the $523 i had to put on her credit card for the services) has pissed her off so she's at an 11 at the dentist so she will be giving them hell tomorrow.

I need good vibes.

a very merry birthday to me

I though my birthday was going to be all emo because I really don’t want to be 26. But I actually had a good day. I had to work which was ass. But after work I went bowling and had some beers and it was good times. I suck at bowling and beer doesn’t help that (like after a few cups of beer I bowled a 27). However, there was good company and fairly good beer. (I don’t think I will be drinking much Bud Light in the future it was not great) But good times had all round.

San Diego bringing things I love together

This is the best picture I've seen today (ok well the best picture that didn't have Rpattz or young Mr. Lautner in it)

look what those Star Wars fans are reading... It's Twilight!

overload

I'm trying to get updates on comic con on twitter for New Moon. There is a lot! I'm going to go do some stuff and then I will get my Twilight Saga fix on. Maybe it will make me forget how emo i feel now about turning 26. (I about to write some bad poetry about how unfair it is)

just a little blog

I had a migraine today but I feel better so blog.
So my cable and internet went out again last night. I get home watch the end of last weeks Penn and Teller’s Bullshit! Then the Time Warner decides that I get only basic cable and no internet. Very not good. But of well we have internet and cable now. I guess it was punishment because I looked so cute yesterday. I should have taken a picture but I was running late. So that didn’t happen.

My birthday is Friday and I am not excited about it. I will be 26 and that is ass. I don’t want to be 26.

I know weak blog today but my head still hurts and I don’t want to push it because I really don’t want to continue to miss work and continue to be broke.

in honor of the 40th Anniversary of the moon landing

bad_persephone and the misidentified relic

I feel like I have been neglecting the internets in general and my blog in particular lately. It is not however due to laziness but because I have had migraines almost every day for the last two weeks. But I’ll survive because I have before.

So here goes my blog:
Last week in anticipation of the much reviled (not by me) Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince I watched all the Harry Potter movies. I was reminded of something that’s always bothered me. Why change of the name of the first book to Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone when said stone is obviously the Philosopher’s Stone of alchemy lore. According to wikipedia (the most trustedist source in the world.) the change was made by Scholastic because they didn’t think that children would read a book with the word Philosopher in the title. Is it just me or do you smell bullshit? Children would have read that book if it was called Harry Potter and Dumbledore’s Crusty Old Nipple (well maybe not but I have a point not many children haven‘t read Harry Potter) it bothered me the whole way through the movie (which I saw before I read the book) and even more through the book. Once they described the properties of the stone in my head I was thinking “…philosophers stone?) but maybe I think too much. Or maybe not.
That’s all for now. I’m going to try and blog every day this week. Unless I have a migraine then fuck light, sound and thinking because it just causes pain.
Oh and I found out today that my Aunt had her baby on 7/6(…?). No one on my mom’s side of the family decided to call us to tell us. I know it’s a trans Atlantic call but still. Two weeks people! I swear if my Aunt hadn’t gone back in to the hospital with a horrible migraine that indicates her spinal pressure is off (she’s ok thought. She just has to go back to the hospital this week and they’ll fix her right up) we wouldn’t have know till they called to wish me Happy Birthday this Friday (if they even called for that). Anyway so I have a new cousin, her name is Nafshiya (it’s Sudanese don’t judge us!)

Harry Potter and the rabid fan base

So the internets are angry about Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince then. I never really felt need to check the internets when the other movies come out so I don’t know if this is new thing but wow. On imdb a kid posted this on how they felt about the movie:

Think back to the South Park episode where the kids were upset about how Spielberg and Lucas raped Indiana Jones.
Now replace Spielberg and Lucas with Kloves and Yates, and instead of Indiana Jones on the pinball machine getting penetrated, it's Harry. And tied up in the corner, waiting for their turn are Snape and Dumbledore.

Actually, Dumbledore isn't tied up, he's videotaping the ordeal, sipping a glass of chablis, alternating with puffs of a cigarette in a long ebony holder A bit much no? Anyway I enjoyed the movie. I didn’t love it. It certainly had it’s flaws. But all round an entertaining movie.

RIP

May you find a peace greater peace in heaven. You touched so many lives and hearts. You will be greatly missed. Your music will carry on.

gumbasia

My brother sent me this:

So he sent me the above comic strip and I laugh heartily. See we used to watch Gumby a lot as children (he loved that show he even had a bendy Gumby toy at one point). I even have a Gumby DVD I bough at Walmart for a dollar (that’s where I got the title to this blog from not an original thought, sorry)

Anyway when I was done laughing I text’d my brother about the amusement I found in the comic he had so thoughtfully sent me. I got to thinking of a great lost opportunity.

Well my idea was simple. See the block heads where always getting in to trouble, so they some how trick Gumby in to drinking beer. And since Gumby is so very naïve, he easily gets a taste for the “sauce” (yes I like to say old timey things sometimes). He soon turns in to the angry drunk as seen above. Pokey, Gumby’s mom, that blue thing with the blonde hair (no I am not looking up her name if you want to know you do the work. It really isn’t that important to me at 3 in the morning) and the block heads (cuz why leave them out, plus they need to learn a lesson too) hold an intervention and Gumby is sent to rehab, or maybe since it is a kids show just learns the error of his ways. And kids everywhere learn that beer = bad.

Also I now want to watch the “very special episode” of Saved by the Bell where Jessy gets addicted to diet pills (I think that’s what is was) and starts sing “I’m So Excited” and then ends up crying. Good times.

See what headache’s, migraines and sleep deprivation does to you.

WORST IDEA EVER!!!!

cute and sad at the same time

So these pictures are cute but sad. I got the pictures here at Fuck yeah animals with casts.

I don't know if I should laugh or cry. You decide for youselves.

le sigh

I watched Transformers Rise of the Fallen. I want to go into full on nerd rage. But well apparently I am too critical. So I will post these links. They say what I want to say only better.

TR Review of Transformers Revenge of the Fallen

TR Transformers 2 FAQ's

this just needed to be said

So yesterday I happened again. I got an message on myspace from a guy telling me how beautiful I am and how he wants to get to know me. And that he is African! Now I have nothing against African men, for some reason I have been attracting them since I was like 12 (I am not exaggerating here ). My problem is that I would not make a good wife for an African man. My aunt was married to an African man he was a very nice man (I am sure he still is but they live I England and I live in Texas and since they got divorced we don’t speak of him). I am so not the kind of woman an African man wants to marry. I don’t know that I am the kind of woman an American man would want to marry. I’d probably piss off a Canadian man off. Also I am so not hooking up with anyone who reads my myspace profile and then feels need tell me they love me and find reason to describe me as a queen. I just thought I would post that. Good day!

upset

So I’m pissed and I cant complain to anyone. Why you may ask, well I will tell you. I just watched Grey’s Anatomy season finally. Everyone watched it on May 14 but I tivo’d it so I put it off. I came home early from work because apparently my head is allergic to something that’s not in the air and my head is pounding. But that’s not my point. I can’t believe that. You can’t end like that. And to bring the pretty princess prom dress back (when Denny died I was apparently worried friends and family because I was so broken up about the loss of a fictional character -don’t judge me-). Anyway it was all too much. And T.R. looked so cute in this uniform. Makes up for how less than stellar season

blogidy blog

Here is my blog for today

1. I watched the first few episodes of Arrested Development the other day. That was a funny show. Just so much so.
2. My road rage to vehicle ratio is all off. My road rage is like at 11 and my car is about a 4. I drive a a new beetle and I am going to get run off the road.
3. I started reading Emily the Strange: the lost days. It’s pretty great.
4. The one of the only good this about He’s Just Not That Into You (and there is not much) Frangela scene is so good.
5. I had the thought the other day that it would totally be great to be an astrophysics groupie, yes I am a nerd.
6. I watched the New Moon trailer the other day (I have watched it more times than you should admit.) I still squeal like a girl every time I watch it.
7. My condolences to the families and fans of Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett and Ed Mcman. They all entertained us and touched our hearts. They will be missed greatly.
8. Ben Affleck should be in more movies. I’m a fan even of his lesser films. I’m with Kevin Smith cast him as the shark in Jaws.
9. I am currently enjoying Regina Spektor new CD. You should check it out.
10. Independence Day is a silly movie. It really doesn’t hold up 13 years later.
11. I want to make Michael Bay money. After years of watching his movies I see that it doesn’t take much creative talent. Just a basic story and lots of explosions, I can do that.
12. Just read the “rumored” speks for the Star Trek DVD and I’m kind of excited.
13. Sadly finished watching Veronica Mars. I am sad that is no more : (
    

that's all for now

because i am so loyal

follow peterfacinelli on twitter. just go to Peter Facinelli's Twitter Page and click follow. if you don't have a twitter account (what have you been doing?) sign up for one, then add him and while you are at it add me as well. thank you for your time.

What on earth is happening here ladies?

Ok girls, I love Robert Pattinson as much as the next girl, but bitches chill. Two days of filming on his new movie and all I hear is “Rpattz stalked by screaming girls!” “Robert Pattinson attacked by fans” “Robert Pattinson has a police escort on set” Let the man work or he will stop. It just absurd. You wouldn’t behave this way if he weren’t famous. Because it’s not acceptable behavior. There’s a picture of some chick like attacking him, (Laurensbites has it posted) Not ok! I want to say I’m surprised but I’m not. Do you all really think that you can continue to do this for the entire shoot? It’s kind of ridiculous and I am disappointed. And hey production company are you confused as to who you have in your movie. You cant just be filming anywhere, clear some streets. Ok, I’ve said my peace.

My weekend was so fun filled it hurts. Wait it just hurt. Friday I ended up in the er because I thought my appendix was about to explode. Turns out that I just have a kidney infection. And for my trouble I got an IV with the hugest needle ever. And RN Daniel mocked me for complaining. His exact words where “You have a tattoo on your foot and you are complaining about a 20 gauge needle” mean man!! FML.

Today I got my car confiscated by my dad (am I not 25) because my light cover is missing on the drivers side and my registration is out of date. In his mind my light cover being off will cause me to get pulled over. (Despite the fact that I have been driving around that way for 4 days.) When I get pulled over I will get a ticket for having a expired registration. So I have to drive my mothers huge ass sonata instead of my tiny New Beatle until my new light ($200+ that I don’t have by the way) comes in and my dad has a chance to install it for me. So FML.

On top of all of that fell at work. But since I am me I couldn’t just fall, no, I tipped myself and my chair over. See I was sitting on my feet (not the way to sit in an office chair at your desk at work, I know). My foot was starting to fall asleep so I was trying to move it without getting up. Somehow I off’d the center of balance and myself and the chair went sailing to the ground. Now not only did my big ass and the chair make a lot of noise, but as I realized I was going down I may have yelled a little bit. So everyone in the room (and it’s a big room) heard my fall and looked to see what happened. If that wasn’t enough embarrassment ,the overnight supervisor called my phone directly to see if I was ok and I had to fill out an accident report. So I am sure I will shortly be drug tested because who falls over in a chair. Sadly I was sober. So again FML

In honor of my old myspace blogs here are some Things I Love:

-Veronica Mars- so I missed out on this one. I didn’t watch the show when it was on upn/the cw. I love this show. Firstly Kristen Bell is adorable. The show is so good. I don’t want the episodes to end but I am half way through the 3rd season so it will soon end.

-The Big Bang Theory - if you haven’t watched this show go get the first season DVD. Season 2 episodes are rerunning on CBS Mondays. This is the 2nd funniest show on TV, after How I Met Your Mother (which it comes on after on CBS Comedy Monday’s). I have been watching the first season DVD’s and so funny.

-Smodcast- nothing new here. I just love Kevin Smith and Scott Mosher. Always have, always will.

-Adam Lambert- I want to eat him up. He is so great. He’s on the top of my gay boys I love list. I would so have his baby and I am totally stealing his tattoo.

-Robert Pattinson- this is not new. But I just love him. He’s adorable. And since I can’t go to a checkout counter anywhere with out seeing his pretty face. So he’s been on my mind.

-Tyler Lautner- he has gotten my the nickname’s child molester and Michael Jackson, on account of how he is 17 and all. You make one comment about thinking he is sexy (which have you seen the New Moon trailer, he is!). We where discussing it the other day that, 17 there where no boys that look like that when we where 17. He is too much with all those muscles.

Enough of that. No just some things I have on my mind.

-In the Target ad they have a bocca ball set listed as a “great fathers day gift” Now I know my dad would happily accept the set if I bought it for him because bless my fathers heart he loves anything I get him. But I’m sure in the back of his head he is thinking “WTF what did b_p get me this? What use could I have with a bocca ball set?” as would any other person. People unless you father specifically states that he wants a bocca ball set or is a avid bocca ball player do not buy him one. He wont enjoy it. And you will have wasted $39 just go with the #1 dad shirt.

-The trailer for Always We Go looks good. I am so down to see that. I just have to catch up on a few other movies before I see that. I need to see Up, and The Hangover before I can see that. But after I see those movies I’m down.

Now I guess it is time for introductions. Like the description says I’m a silly girl and a hopeless romantic. There was also something about a pop culture princess (a self appointed title). I was not satisfied with having a myspace, Facebook and twitter so blogger here I am.
By silly girl I mean just that. I am silly and I am a girl. I try to keep the philosophy “life is too short, don’t take your self to seriously.” I’m a customer service representative so all day I deal with asses. Relax people.
Hopeless romantic is sort of self explanatory. On top of that I am a cry baby. Noah Wyle talking about the polar bears get’s the waterworks started.
I am ’those’ Twilight people and no amount mocking from friends and family will change that. I was a late convert to the series but now I can’t get enough. Stephenie Meyer can do no wrong in my mind. Also the cast and crew on the movie often fill my thoughts.
I don’t have any real goal with this blog. The pop culture princess title I gave my self means that I will be posting some pop culture related items. I’ll try to recommend at least one movie a week. You will defiantly hear about Twilight. Since I am supposed to have declared this the year of the book (check out my myspace) I’ll maybe post about a book once I finish one of the three I am reading. TV, I didn’t really decide to blog at the best time of the year for TV. But I watch enough of it so I will find something to fill the summer wastelands. I wont post much if any celebrity gossip (unless it is something that needs to be mocked). I will be mocking things, that’s just what I do. I might post a throw back blog post from my myspace account. In conclusion expect lots of random crap.
Post again soon…
