A little venting - Work Process or lack of

No details here - but in my opinion, one of the worst ways to start development for a new web site:

• Unclear requirements - make your best guess on major functionality
• No idea how the site will be marketed
• Intentionally tight, guaranteed to miss, deadline
• Other teams that will almost certainly want to have some say in the design left out of planning. They will want major functionality changed later
• Not focusing on User experience first

Stress levels are high. Confidence levels are low. Trying to stay positive. Just keep swimming.

Health care sucks

So we were able to get reasonably priced health care for L. But, because I'm overweight we were not able to get any for me.  The only way they will cover me is if I pay them a huge amount of money per month for a plan that barely covers anything. WTF is up with health care in the US.

It doesn't matter that I'm losing weight, it doesn't matter that I'm in good health otherwise.

I guess I should be happy that we got L covered so easily.
