    I don't understand why Amazon has moved to the "Buy it Again" model for every single thing. The number of things I purchase on the site that I would buy again is close to zero. Maybe one thing I've bought more than once but that's more of a "the fucking Chinese shit broke, I gotta buy another one" watch band situation. It's either the Chinese shit for $15 or the official branded stuff for $40.

    But then I just thought about the Boots Theory and maybe I should just buy the branded stuff to save money.

    Anyway, I was bitching about the Buy it Again thing. It used to make sense and would only show on things you would actually conceivably buy again but now it's everything. No I'm not buying another copy of that limited edition Coraline Blu-ray, you bonehead.

    secondary to that: The medical place I went to for the longest time when I first moved here closed down a few years ago unexpectedly and did not let anyone know where the records were sent. So I have several years worth of medical stuff that I need to reference suddenly and no idea where to look for it, or even if it was sent anywhere other than a shredder.

    I just finished sending off paperwork to the disability insurance. I haven't been well & was dragging my feet. I'd heard snow was coming this week (true, started today) so made sure i got it faxed yesterday. confirmed they got it & the doctor report. totaly cost $167. $150 for doctor since insurance doesn't cover & $17 to fax. it's all just brutal. luckily i don't have to get to any doctors this week which is pretty rare. lot next week but snow should be gone by then. seattle is ugly in the snow. now with high winds coming later today just have to hope the power & the cable tv stays on!
