Yes, I like the convenience of my ereader, and I'm looking forward to taking a trip without either breaking my back or worrying about running out of books (I know that you all understand.) But, I will never stop reading actual books. I enjoy the tactile sensation, the feeling of accomplishment as the right side gets smaller and left one gets bigger.

Thrive to spite them
My COBRA FIASCO IS DONE!
I got a call at 8:30 this morning from the supervisor I spoke to yesterday letting me know I was enrolled, retroactively to BC/BS of Florida and she gave me an Id number and a phone number.
So I called and verified and she was RIGHT! I'm in. She walked me through the form to get reimbursed for my prescription and answered lots of helpful questions.
The deductible is really small, esp compared to get a BC/BS of VT plan and I looked on their website and found in network doctors here in VT (although I have to call and verify).
I also asked about an IUD since my old HMO didn't cover it. BC/BS will cover the doctor's visits but I'd have to buy the actual IUD, so I have no idea how much all of that is going to cost.

Coffee: amyth, S is here right now looking at my stuff. And talking, of course. Not bad so far. He has to leave in a half hour.

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?
Yay, askye!!!!!! About time, I say.
I thought about doing it with electrical tape so I could just erase the notes. But it's not my building, so I don't want to damage the board.
Liese, I highly recommend graphic art tape. You can get it at art or craft supply stores. It will stick on a whiteboard and then come off with no problems. I don't know if you can leave it up there, but I have some on my whiteboard that's been there for 2 years. You can clean the board and it will stay on, but it's super easy to take off and won't harm the board.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My COBRA FIASCO IS DONE!
Woo! Mine is allegedly fixed, but now the stress-inducing question is whether the IUD will make it to the doctor's office in time for my appointment. I want to be optimistic and believe that it will, but everything else has gone so apocalyptically bad that I can't really believe that it will work out.
I need a drink and it's only 10:24 a.m.

Ship-like-the-wind~ma to Steph's IUD. I really hope I am not embarking on my own COBRA fiasco. I mailed in my election form last Monday, and emailed my former company two days ago to make sure they got it and such, and haven't heard anything. Which is par for the course for them, but I'd really like to have some paper in hand before I move.
S is gone. An hour of fanboy natter for $20. Not too bad.
Right. Now I have to Make All The Phone Calls, Tweak All The Resumes, and Pack All The Things.
