Thankfully I have no prescriptions. But, if my gallbladder acts up, or I get another nasty blockage or some such, I do not want to be without insurance.

If that happens, you can elect COBRA retroactively, as long as you're within a certain time period. My memory of the last time I did this is that you have 58 days. Make sure to ask about this specifically with the benefits people tomorrow - no sense paying premiums if you don't have to.

It's actually the later of whatever the time period is and when you were notified of this time period. because of NYU's slow bureaucracy I had almost 4 months to make the decision. Which was a good thing because I found out I needed my surgery after I left NYU.

Has anyone seen my motivation?

Maybe it's run off with mine. Those crazy kids.

Are you smoking your inspiration?

ARRRRGGGHHHH

Painful. Our IT guy is hot. SMOKING HOT. He has this amazing voice....and gorgeous blue eyes and just a sprinkling of grey hair and is super smart and nice and doesn't wear a ring, and that confluence of wonderousness almost certainly means that he is gay. *Sigh* Except that he dresses horribly shlumishly, so maybe there is hope and no girlfriend. I can't recall being this swoony since undergrad, i feel like an idiot. And....coworker. My second week on the job. Really shouldn't be hurling myself at the overstressed IT guy who barely speaks to me but sometimes smiles shyly as he walks by on his way to the office of whoever important whose computer died today. *sigh* Nor should i be posting this from the work computer, but there it is. I am stooooopid today and having trouble concentrating on the large pile of nothing in my to do pile. Already read two newspaper, three magazines today. *sigh* And he's only in the office two days a week :( But maybe that's for the best as less distraction is probably good right now. But honestly. i could use some distractions! Just not the fantasizing kind. This is really out of character for me! But *Swoon*

I don't have the motivation to smoke my inspiration. That might lead to perspiration.

You know that part of "Old King Wenceslas" the plays during the ACC transition out of final bechamber into the street scene (after the hat trick) when the music swells? About 1 minute 50 seconds into the cue? Yeah, that's stuck in my head right now.

I just almost told one of the partners to sto whistling because it's bad luck. Then remembered that i am in an advertising agency, not a theatre. AFAIK, there is no superstition about whistling in an advertising agency, as there are no ropes to be pulled by sailors. But there are sailors outside, a few tall ships having something to do with one of the paraded last weekend. Or this weekend. Too many parades! Portland needs to settle down.

Did someone put speed in my puddling?
