It's me, the child free adult at Aladdin who forgot that children also like Aladdin. I haven't been around so many kids at once in years. (It's pretty cute tbh, but I have to watch my mouth. I'm so sorry, parents).
Another childless adult just walked by discussing how they should pregame Book of Mormon. My people.
It's been an incredible bounty of Netflix binges this week. Finished The Ultimatum: Queer Love, watched all of season 4 of Never Have I Ever in like... 12 hours, and I'm six episodes in to Siren: Survive the Island.
I do hate when umpires start calling illegal pitches during high stakes WCWS games when they haven't called them all season.

That brings our yearly total to 39 TV series at 427 episodes and 39 movies.
If you've ever wondered what it's like to get hit with food poisoning right before your flight, forcing you to monopolize a plane bathroom as you vomit and shit at the same time... I can confirm it is terrible. -100000/10. Do not recommend.
Everyone in Colorado today is now aware of every leak in their home. Water damage everywhere... Including my ceiling lol. I think we're good on moisture for a while.
Have you ever made pasta you're really excited about, but the sauce is too thin so you add cornstarch. Except you mix up cornstarch & baking soda and you're on a medication that makes sodium bicarbonate taste flat which is what baking soda is. So now you have a flat pasta sauce?
A fun thing I've discovered is that walking and standing flare up my back/sciatica pain, but sitting too long irritates my hip injury. Maybe I'll just float around in a vat of goo and see how that goes.

I wonder if any prospective students on this campus tour in zero degree weather are going to come here.
My physio is trying to address my back inflexibility.
Pro: I can now clasp my hands behind my back.
Con: Every muscle knot in my back is inflamed, spasming, and gathering in protest. The knots have been there for a decade and think they have tenant rights.
@Cigna, I did everything asked to get a denied claim covered. I had the dr. re-run primary/secondary insurance, and sent the uncovered EOB to primary ins. I confirmed receipt. I called again when I got a new bill from the dr. and was told it would be resolved in 10 business days.
After 10 business days, I was charged the total bill. I called @Cigna again for next steps. I was told there was no record of the rejected EOB, so secondary ins. had not kicked in. It's as if the previous phone calls never happened. Literally, what do I need to do?
The kicker is that both insurances are @Cigna. I am literally fighting with Cigna to cover a Cigna-denied claim. It is $138, and I went to an in-network doctor. My time is worth so much more than this.
