My Friday 1/17/2009

Yesterday was Friday.

I woke up early. I had to drive my mom to work so I could have a car to drive myself to work. But OMG, no WATER! We had NO WATER! It sucked. But what we did was I dropped off my mom at 7 o clock and then I went home to pick up my toothbrush that I'd forgotten and went to my Uncle's house (two blocks away) to shower and brush my teeth. So lucky we have them so close, or else I'd be a smelly creature at work.

I had to get to work at 8am sharp. Well, I wasn't on time =// I stopped by Dunkin Donuts, if I didn't stop by I would have been on time =/ I didn't really need to stop by DD, cause I didn't have much time to eat anyway. Diane had told me I gotta get in and just hit it, sort them drugs like crageeeee. My mom had told me to go turn on the downstairs heat, but I had forgotten to do that and she called me at work to ask me to home and turn on the heat. But dude, if I left work, I'd have to take 30 minutes to do that! But my day working as Diane went well. I sorted the drugs in an hour, pretty damn good I'd say! Then I typed and typed, woo! so happy to have a good staff on.

First problem, let's see was this lady that the company switched Pharmacy programs and she didn't know it. I told her she could pay cash for now and then we would refund it with in a week. But then, she was like, do you know how much those cost! I paid x -illion dollars for this blah blahh blah. I want to see ur manager lbal blah. I didn't do anything about it, I ignored that last part and she went to see the store manager, Stan. So he asked me if we could call the insurance company. And I was like I guess, he said u guess or u can? I was like yea.. So I did that and found out they switched companies, so then I called those people and got the info and processed the stuff. While I called the old lady I guess started feeling bad and was like I'll go home and check, and before she was like ugh I have to go all the way hoME???? Yea idk they are mean, then they are nice ta ya, ah, whatev'. That's the way it goes.

And then some ol' lady wanted to get a CII filled, and apparently her grandson/son stole her other rx and filled it. Her option was to arrest her grandson/son. How unfortunate, handle it internally, or face federally punishment. And then there was a guy saying something about an insurance company authorizing a free fill - I've never heard of that before! @@ They can do that?


I go kinda mad when stuff isn't efficient. Today at Costco, it was a zoo! two people wanted to get past at the same time on both sides of me coming towards me. one by his own person and another a huge cart with like a sofa on it. I was just like what do u guys want from me!!! Like HOLY CRAP, man. People need to be more patient on the weekends, holy moley.

Anyway, I went home after work and my brother texted me that the 30% off coupon for hp.com is BACK! woohoo! But then I had to go pick up my mom at my uncle's house. since somehow idk how she took my other uncle's car to work and she had also came home to turn on the heat. But I waited for my mom by kind playing with my little cousin Andy, who is in kindergarten. He just runs around like the wild child he is and watches the same thomas train dvd over and over again. so my aunti offered me some cashews. apparently my mom went with my uncle and they got these said cashews.

NEW* Cashew Allergy

I had like 3 cashews, I swear, totally not close to like 10 cashews, even. After the few cashews I felt weird, itchy tongue. then it developed to a constriction in the throat. Scary shit. But all the while I could breathe, wheew. I got home drank some OJ and soon had a tummy ache. I chatted with my sister and she said her friend had thrown up and that the dr said that was the best thing to do. I looked up symptoms of allergy, they can be GI upset/diarrhea. i sat on the bathroom floor for a while but all I did was burp. (I later found out my sister's friend had made himself throw up, something I didn't know. also the dr said if he didn't throw up he would have had a worse reaction...) My mom set me up with some asian oils on my tummy and an electric blanket. I also took some benadryl and ginger ale. I think I fell asleep, I don't really know. and then I woke up or something and started feeling really itchy. my back, back of the head, chest, like everything so itchy. OMG SO itchy! I had my sister research treatment for hives, they said the best thing was a soothing bath with oatmeal and junk. I just did soap and water and did some apricot scrub.

i was all pink. if you saw my face - i had some white around my eye and everything else was pink! and then i applied some dry skin therapy creme. aveeno seems like that would be the best solution. though i think it has soy it it. i had tried an aveeno face lotion and did not react well to it.

allergic reactions are very much no fun@@~!!!

i've had cashews before, wth now, i'm allergic NOW????
