In reply to Britt. Oh my gosh Britt, one of my friends JUST told me about this app! I am downloading it the second I get back to the US! Thank you for the tip -- this is why I love you guys.

I literally just saw a commercial for this app called GoodRX and it made me think about this post -specifically when you mentioned some way of seeing if different prescriptions have generics or lower costs. Based on the commercial, it appears as though that’s what this app does. Might be worth it to check it out! The commercial said its membership free, and provides coupons for prescriptions.

In reply to Dominique. Indeed -- I can get quite spooked about my eye issues. Really looking forward to finally having laser correction this year so I can get rid of my contacts, which I suspect are a major player in these reoccurring infections.

Oh wow, doctors in the US don’t sound that great, what a scary time you must’ve gone through! Luckily your eye is better, but it would always be good to find out what’s wrong. If only to set your mind at ease! Health issues and travel can really tire a person out!

In reply to Elizabeth Howell. I kept thinking, "this would be so dang easy and cheap in Bangkok," ha. Ah well, my eyes like to keep me on my toes ;)

In reply to Megan. Ah, thank you for correcting me! I updated the post -- at least I got it right in the original Chicago post ;)

In reply to Rachel. Hey Rachel! Oh I love it so <3 I mostly go to Williamsburg but I've also been to their Upper East Side and SoHo locations and the HQ for workshops in Bowery. And now I've been to the West Hollywood one too -- gotta catch 'em all!

In reply to Angie Orth. Although we DID give it a run for its money with our 90's karaoke night at your house -- HA!

The medical dramas sound awful, no need to apologise for complaining about those, it sounds super-stressful. What a packed month too! Always love reading these reports 🙂
