Yesterday was going really well until it wasn't. Had my meeting with the psychiatrist, the therapist, went to see the movie (loved the movie), went for my daily walk, and then got a call from my psychiatrist explaining my bill was jumping from $45 to $179. Because insurance. Fuck.
TWO THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR (SPECIFIC)
1. My therapist just opened a private practice and one of the things he wants to try is a therapy group D&D game and he said I was one of the first people he wanted to ask if I'd GM. That sounds so wild I had to say yes. I already have ideas.
2. After the other day when I wrote about feeling disconnected from my regular D&D group, I decided to reach out and try to get to know them better. I just got this response, "Yeah I’m definitely open to that 😄" and "It’s been really fun playing with you and I’d love to chat!"
ONE THING THAT WENT WELL DURING THE DAY
Before the insurance fuckery, the movie was great. It was goofy, heartfelt, and violent as hell. Exactly what I was looking for. I miss high-concept movies and as a guy who reads a lot of comics, I am so fucking sick of Marvel movies and their stranglehold on Hollywood.
ONE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL ACTION ITEM FOR THE DAY
Unfortunately, today's absolutely critical action item is to solve the insurance fuckery and if that doesn't work, stop it from happening again, and if that doesn't work, at least learn what changed. Because based on yesterday's phone call with the insurance ... nothing changed.
WHATEVER IS ON MY MIND
Even though it got overshadowed, I think my wife and I needed to see the movie. We used to go on movie dates all the time before Covid and obviously that all stopped. Last time we saw a movie was Spider-Man, and before that was Batman. It was nice to get out. To be together.
