[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Thanks Seanie. I appreciate that.
I wonder who I can get to be me and go to the hearing.
Prolly fraud, huh?
I'm scared that now they're going to decide that I was overpaid the money I have received and have to pay all that back PLUS interest PLUS penalties.
Blargh.
AIMS!!!!!!!
NO FALLING DOWN!!!!!! Come on! I have enough of this problem with S!
I'm not always smart about things, but this part reads to me like I *can* have the appeal hearing by telephone. I got is directly from the California Unemployment code.
1953.5. The presiding officer may conduct all or part of a hearing by telephone, television, or other electronic means, notwithstanding a party's objection pursuant to Section 11440.30 of the Government Code, on a showing of good cause by the party requesting the hearing by telephone, television, or other electronic means.
NO FALLING DOWN
Well, goodness. I tripped. I didn't just face plant cause there was air there.
Hey All. Playing catch up games as usual.
Aimee's story (ouch!) reminded me of me to such a degree, I thought she might appreciate one of my newest tees: [link]

Aimee -- it sounds that way to me too.
ION, I was forced through finances to purchase less expensive cat food. Unfortunately, one of my cats cannot keep it down. I have 7 days until I get paid and can buy the regular stuff. What are the odds that he will adjust to the food between now and then? (I'm planning on supplementing his kibble with some of my scrambled eggs. I really have no other animal protein in the house at the moment and I'm not sure what good peanut butter will do for a feline.)
If you decide you need to use those to come out here for an appeal, S and I just bought an aerobed, and would love to have you stay with us.
You'd also be welcome in our guest room, of course, but I hope that the telephone appeal is possible. I definitely think you must pursue this. You have a very good case and can clearly outline the timeline of the events that forced you to quit the Saturday job and move to Michigan to seek better opportunities for your family.
P.S. NO FALLING DOWN! Do we have to give you Cass's padded hamster ball?
sumi, if the kitty likes the scrambled eggs, I'd try that. If that doesn't work, drop me a line, ok. I'd be happy to paypal some kibble money.
Aimee, that sure sounds like you can telephone. Push for this, hon. They're being ridiculous.
Anyone want to see my first gardening attempt? [link] I took some pictures in case I kill them in a week.
I've had a hearing with unemployment by phone in California, fwiw. The bubble wrap that Aimee should now be wrapped in should not interfere.
What an awful thing, connie. That kind of "Oh, someone I know" realization is no fun.
I don't know if your cat will adjust to the new food, sumi, mine have never needed adjusting, but a bit of egg should keep him going.
Aimee, it looks like you have 20 days to file your appeal and that within that appeal you'd make the request to be heard by telephone. [link] Caveat: I am not a lawyer in CA.
I'm going to try him with scrambled eggs tonight. He seems okay -- not frantically begging or looking for edible stuff. (I hope that means that more kibble stayed down this morning than last night.)
ETA: vw, thanks for the offer. We'll see how he does on the eggs.
