20+ icons from Cherry Magic for Round 6 @ ships20in20
Apr. 22nd, 2026 10:08 pmabyss_valkyrieships20in20! I only found out a few days ago and decided to sign up with the couple Adachi X Kurosawa from the Japanese version of Cherry Magic. The category icons had to be made from the video inspiration of Top Gun Maverick soundtrack-Hold my hand by Lady Gaga, so I took the inspo from 5 various moments which you can see below.
Song lyrics are from Taylor Swift's Stay Stay Stay.

And it continues
Apr. 17th, 2026 07:21 pmmxcatmoonYeah, so I called the hospital and they refused to change to a different one. Said I would have to get a doctor outside the hospital to change it. That would mean waiting for an appointment, paying more money for an office visit... They might even insist I take blood tests for them. Most doctors are assholes. I'm sorry, but that has been my lifelong experience. It's very important that I take this antibiotic, because of the symptoms of the infection (heart beating irregularly and skipping beats plus other unpleasant things). So, I had to bite the bullet and pay for it -- Seventy dollars for FIVE capsules. (Long story short, I had chest pains and heart skipping beats, but all heart tests came out okay, just had three other medical conditions instead).
On top of all that, the pharmacy didn't even have the med in stock, so I had to have them call and transfer it to another further away from me, then hurry to pick them up.
And then... (oh you thought the story was OVER?) top that all off, when I pick up my prescriptions, the pharmacist informs me that the expensive antibiotic I'm about to take does is similar to penicillin -- which I am allergic to! Yes, that was IN my medical chart at the hospital. I can only assume the bitch who ordered my meds (the one who overrode the doctor) didn't even bother to check. The pharmacist was concerned, but I told her I have no choice. I have to take it and hope I don't have a reaction to it.
Wish me luck! Three years ago, I was in the hospital for a week gravely ill due to an infection. I'd rather take my chances with the drug than pause treatment on the infection.
In a more pleasant note, I have a crush on the ER doctor who originally saw me. 😉 She was totally my type. Love Dr. Kanji! (of course I'm way too old for her!). Would it be weird if I based an OC character on her for the fic series I'm writing? (That I wrote some of while in the hospital, and if I do it also means more character-whump. I've been wanting to write more whump).

Home and still being tortured by the medical profession
Apr. 17th, 2026 06:06 pmmxcatmoonMore ranting ahead...
First the good news: they released me today and I'm home. The news but better than hoped, if a bit baffling (because my symptoms for what I had make no sense, so they aren't really sure what was going on themselves, but I seem to be feeling better, so.
Now I've got several doctors appointments to make and prescriptions to pick up, and all that BS. Still have to fill out my paperwork for my sick leave, too.
1. The doctor called in a nice, cheap antibiotic for me to the pharmacy. The nurse (I didn't like her from the moment I saw her) took it upon herself to cancel it, and instead ordered me one that costs almost thirty dollars per capsule (with discount scrip card). Needless to say I'm going to wait until I see how much it's going to cost me and probably contact them saying they need to give me a different kind that's cheaper.
2. I can't find out because when I go to my insurance prescription site and put in my membership number
3. Every time I access My Chart I have to go through all the steps to verify it's me, even though my phone is set up to remember my password. Gotta get a code from the phone, put it in the log in, then must change password. Because I don't know what it's using for my USER name and nowhere in there does it tell me. DESPITE the fact that I can log into the stupid hospital account (the other one, they are supposed to be connected but then they aren't). Now it won't even send me a code to verify my identity. Not in my spam folder, either.
3. It takes an hour to do what should be the easiest things. Everything I try to do is a huge project, even though I made sure I had all the info I needed before I went to the ER. I blame AI, it's probably fucking everything up.
I'm done with this aggravation for the night. I need to try and get onto my Chart so I can let them know they need to prescribe a different antibiotic though, because that's important. Well, that's it I'm done it says none of my emails or my phone number have accounts associated with them. I don't know if it locked me out for trying too often or what (it never warned me of that). I'll try calling the hospital.
Oh, and I have to also find a way to apply for financial assistance, because I can't afford the huge deductible my health insurance has before they even start paying anything.
Otherwise, I'm going in the bedroom and chill out with some fandom stuff, because I don't need this BS when I'm trying to recuperate.
To those of you not in the US (who probably have Universal health care): This is just a sample of what hell looks like.
A big thank you for all the well-wishing! I don't have the spoons to reply now, but know I appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers! Will talk more about it all when I'm not able to blow a gasket.

Apr. 17th, 2026 09:21 ammxcatmoon This place is getting on my last nerve. I was nice before but the cracks are starting to show.
I can't get logged into my work account on this stupid phone to put in for my sick leave it insists pw is wrong. But I did find where they hid the auto rotate so that's fixed. Taking me a half hour to write this post. d

Hospitals suck
Apr. 16th, 2026 09:06 pmmxcatmoon Allow me to vent. I'm exhausted haven't hardly slept in two days. Every time I do, I get woken up.
Will respond to messages asap can’t deal with trying to do anything on this stupid phone how do people without a computer survive?
I miss my wonderful computer. Stupid phone acting up too. Suddenly I have no more auto rotate?
And how do they expect anyone to get better under these conditions?

Just random stuff and health (and Miami Vice because it helps me cope)
Apr. 13th, 2026 07:22 pmmxcatmoonIs anyone noticing that Dreamwidth loads really slowly these days? Sometimes I have to wait almost half a minute when all my other sites are almost instantaneous. So, it's not my computer.
I've been keeping it to myself, but the reason I haven't been engaging as much lately as usual because I've been having some health issues. I'm very stressed out about. I'm trying to remain positive, but I'm afraid it may not be anything simple this time. I even have a bag packed, in case I end up with a hospital stay. The worst part is, I'm so poor I can't afford this shit (yes, even with insurance, our hours have been cut at work and I can barely afford food). I'm not certain what's going to happen if a lot of bills get run up. Keep me in your prayers, thanks.
I've been distracting myself with Miami Vice. Still haven't finished my rewatch but I'm on the last episode now. I'm mad at Rico, my beloved has pissed me off. 😉 I'll get over it and forgive him, though.
What the heck, I'll post the memes I just did here.
Then there's Castillo, Rico, Sonny, and the vein in Sonny's forehead: 😉
He's just a little bit protective...

pattrose for helping me remember that I forgot to post the last chapter of my Trudy-Rico friendship fic here!This chapter is Post Freefall. This one was bittersweet to write because I’ve loved doing this series exploring Trudy and Rico’s friendship. I have to be honest; I teared up a bit. (I also *may* have more in store for the three of them, but we'll have to see...)
