Here Kitty Kitty

I am a pretty calm person but occasionally I will lose my cool.

I reach what I like to call SK (shittin' kittens) status and then I am simply out of patience.

Our local pharmacy is having a tough time right now keeping up with the demand so I do my best to make things easier for them.

I use the automated system on the phone to place my order.

I always choose the following business day to pick up my order.

And then I will wait one more day just to make sure they have had plenty of time. 

I placed my order on Monday morning and I waited until Wednesday afternoon to show up. 

I was informed my order wasn't ready and if I could come back in a few hours.

Sure thing. 

No problem.

A few hours pass and I return to pick up my prescription. 

I remind the pharmacy tech that if she runs my one prescription through insurance it is going to be more expensive. 

She tells me that doesn’t make sense. 

I tell her that would be a reasonable assumption but that is the way it is with this one. 

She looked at me like I had a frozen cat turd stapled to my head and said, “Are you sure?” 

The cats had been released into the wild, the filter was off and I turned into an unsympathetic jerk.

"Ha, you got me!" I exclaim. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am the nonsense fairy. I like to run around making silly proclamations based on how ridiculous I am feeling. You are today’s lucky winner. Tomorrow I am going down to Jiffy Lube to try and pick up my dry cleaning.  You should tag along. It's going to be a hoot."

The pharmacy tech did not find it amusing.

But she did learn that health insurance doesn't always make sense because when she ran my prescription without insurance it was almost $50 cheaper. 

I am feeling good as my SK status has been reset to zero and it should be a long time before I have another cat-astrophe.

Thanks for stopping by and I will talk to you soon. 

I will persevere.

I will keep moving forward.

I will be the stream.
