Jan 23 -- My Allotment of SUCCESS for the month is used up now.
From my current Twitter stream:
Well, the Unemployment bureaucratic Catch-22 is finally unsnarled, which took getting my claim for extended Section 30 (Educational exception) disallowed -- note that school ended officially in October? (I was auditing after that, but it doesn't count in my eligibility as a job-searcher.) Anyway, I'm now fully qualified for the Federal extensions, of which there are 20 weeks remaining, and always hope for more if the Feds come through with more funding.
Given how dire the finding-work situation is, I may need all that, but by June the economy will be booming again, right? :: pauses to admire the view through her large and rose-colored glasses ::
I used up my allotment of bureaucratic-fu though, because trying to get my prescriptions through a local CVS meant that I found that my health insurance check hadn't gone through yet. I did find out that there's now a way to pay over the web, and signed up for a regular automatic payment. Then I had to call BCBS-MA and get them to allow an override.
By then it was too late to go back to the CVS, so I'll head over there this morning. Good thing it wasn't for anything that's absolutely necessary.
Boy, was I tired last night -- collapsed halfway through Flashpoint, so you know I was tired if I couldn't stay up for The Hugh, let alone BSG. But at least that gives me something to look forward to watching tonight, even if it's on my computer.
- 07:55 I misread the schedule and got Mom up a half hour before the Home Health Aide came to do her morning stuff. #
- 08:51 Bizarro-KISS in some truly alternate universe: tinyurl.com/5pfcga #
- 10:02 My aunt says that she's most likely coming on Monday, so I have an End Date for this stint. She's 80, so it's dependent on her health. #
- 10:23 waiting on hold with Unemployment -- expected time is 40 minutes to speak to someone. #
- 11:03 Unemployment lady SUCCESSFUL in reopening my claim (at long last!) so I've got another 20 weeks via Federal extensions! #
- 12:18 @victoriajanssen I sure do! Want something web-designafied or know somebody who does? tinyurl.com/au5v84 #
