How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm on strike too.

Actually, I am working. Hurts too much to leave the house, but I can still get stuff done. Have to. Have a hard deadline for Wednesday morning.

Upshot of the insurance shenanigans of this morning? Well, the one hospital has finally been paid off by insurance as of the end of last month, for bills that go back as far as May. The other people weren't even supposed to be billing me at all, but the hospital had never forwarded them my insurance information--hence I was in collections.

Stupid fucks. It's not like I was having *fun* or anything. Why do they have to magnify the stress?

I am so in love with that photo, Kat! Seriously, I just got all weepy eyed.

The holidays make me a mushy-faced mess.

Right now I wish I had Kat's ability to DO THINGS, especially seeing as how she's on strike right now and not using it. Me? I need it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Seriously. Put me in collections over my impulse trip back to Jamaica for my father's birthday or the corset I didn't mean to buy. At least those have a continuing upside. Hospital visits that made me freak out hysterically? Yeah. Collections unwarranted. Sure.

God forbid we should mess up the system with socialised medicine. That'd make things suck.

enh. frankly, I am not doing anything today. entertaining the boy is about all. We have so much xmas gifts and other stuff (K's mom is moving to Texas or Louisiana in a few days... she's not sure yet of exactly where...) that we will have to ship boxes tomorrow.

I have never, never, gone to the hospital without having my billing fucked up in some way.
