You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

bless the hivemind - someone always has an answer!

In mememe news, my company switched health insurance companies effective April 1. I started getting worried because, hey, it's April 21 and I haven't gotten a card. All I have is a print-out of an e-mail from our HR person with the name and phone number of a person to call to verify coverage. Everyone else has their card; everyone else - except one older woman with health problems and me - has had their card for a week or two now.

Last night I got a call from the company and, yes, I'm insured. yay

What does the health reform law say about pre-existing conditions and when does that kick in?

Starting in 2014, insurance companies will no longer be able to deny coverage with people with preexisting conditions.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Well, I answered my own question. According to [link] the pre-existing condition coverage does not start till 2014.

eta: And, Scola answered my question. Thanks!

Fridays are no good for me. I have a therapy session in the middle of the day.

Doesn't BK count as a therapy session?

I really shouldn't be looking at the J. Peterman catalog, because now I want this coat and either of these dresses.
