What a time waster

A couple weeks ago I called my doctor to get a prescription refill. They gave me the refill, and told me to come in to test my blood pressure. So I scheduled the appointment today at 3:30, assuming the we'd be done rehearsing by then. (We've been in tech for over a week now.) We weren't, and are still rehearsing, so I got my boss to cover for me for an hour to go to this appointment. (Rehearsal ended at 4.)

When I got there, after I paid my copay and everything, they tell me that I didn't need to be there because I'm not taking the medication for my blood pressure.* So I paid them, and didn't get paid for the hour of work I missed, just to drive to frikkin Kansas. Great.

At least the weather was nice and sunny!

* Although my doctor emphasized that I should take care of my thyroid soon, because letting it go can lead to problems. Sigh.
