Today sucked.

I drove Mark to work pretty late. Then I didn't have time to go back home, so I went to my doctor's appointment instead, which made me 50 minutes early. While waiting for my doctor, who saw me after I'd waited an hour & 30 minutes, I talked to Janice on the phone who told me that Jamie told her that mom is pissed that I sounded distracted on the phone last night when she'd told me about grandma being in the hospital. I wasn't distracted. I wasn't uncaring. I was in shock after being given terrible news after already being completely exhausted!?! WTF?

The doctor's visit, once it actually happened, went well. Apparently the drug that she'd prescribed before had been completely fucked up by the pharmacy the first time around. She gave me a new prescription for that to ammend that problem, then doubled my dose of another medication, just to make that one isn't working, or if maybe the dosage was just wrong. She also gave me a new prescription for Midrin to go on file for when it's available again.

I dropped off my prescriptions at the Meijer pharmacy, where I had to explain what's really going on the with the Midrin shortage to the pharmacy tech, before she'd put the perscription on file. Then I went to Kroger to get some flowers and a card for my Grandmother. Then I went to visit Grandma in the Saline hospital.

When I got to the hospital, Aunt Marge & Katie were there. Grandma was about to be taken to get X-Rays; she liked the card, and said the flowers were pretty. I waited with Marge & Katie for Grandma to get back. Uncle Mike and Chris Brunt joined us; Chris had brought his dad in for his blood sugar problems. I stayed after Aunt Marge and her family left...until Grandpa got there. They were about to take Grandma over to Saint Jo's to get an MRI. I kissed grandma and told her I loved her. She told me to say hello to Mark & Michael for her.

I called my friend Carrie to see if she wanted to get some food with me, as she's on her school break right now, but she didn't answer, so I left her a message. Later I got a voicemail from her saying she was playing a videogame, but that she had plans today anyways, but maybe we could hang out Friday or Saturday or Sunday evening. I'm pretty sure I close the store on Sunday. I'm watching Torchwood with Chris on Saturday. And I'll probably be dead tired tomorrow night. But maybe something will change.

I ate when I got home, and tried to stay awake so I could pick up Mark from work. I originally thought I'd have Michael over, but I was so exhausted that I figured I wouldn't be any fun. I did jump on yahoo messenger though to see if Michael was on for a chat, but he wasn't...which is rare. Later I checked again, but he still wasn't there...but I left him a message anyways.

I arrived at Mark's work exactly on time, but he had some work to do, and we didn't get to leave until about 40 minutes later, which sucked. Then when we went to Meijer to pick up my prescriptions the pharmacy had fucked that one prescription up AGAIN. Then this other guy behind the counter was rude to me. And then they said they needed to call the insurance company to fix the problem, but they were closed. I stormed out of the store, rather than say exactly what I wanted to say. I'm tired, and pissed off, and I just want to erase this entire day from my brain.
