If I were still going to the office, I'd buy that and wear it under a smart suit jacket.

I was thinking of Halloween - because nobody but me really does anything, I generally keep it low key (yet never let it go unacknowledged) on Halloween. But Halloween falls on the weekend this year. I hadn't thought of just wearing it on some random Tuesday. Interesting...

I just discovered that I haven't been getting any short term disability pay because it's been closed. As of June 1st because my meds manager hasn't faxed anything or her assitant has faxed anything. Even though I asked if they had.

So it's my fault for not following up and I see her later for a med check.

BUT I'm only going to get paid at 60% of my pay so I've got to decide if I should just go part time and take my chances with the state. Because I'd be making $6/hour with that based on my old hourly wage and if you take into consideration how much my benefits are I don't think it makes sense.

I also found out that the meds manager's office person is submitting some claims under the name of the meds manager who is in network and some under the group practice name which is NOT in Network.

Ugh askye, sounds like the meds manager isn't doing her job, or at least someone in the office isn't.

Yeah it's frustrating but I found out some informaton and I'm working iwth a transitional case manager so when I see her next week I have to talk to her about getting help seeing a health care navigator to find out about insurance through the state.

Which means is goign to be weird becaue I'm going to (presumably) get a lump sum payment for this benefit stuff that might throw things off. But I just have to figure things out.

What a pain, askye. I'm sorry you have to deal with all of that.

Mom is here today which means that if ltc gets fussy she can take her for a walk or a drive. So of course ltc is the most pleasant baby ever today.

So I talked to the meds manager and figured out one thing. There is someone new doing the billing which is where that mistake is coming from.

As for the disability insurance stuff - they still aren't sure but are going to fax everything over again.

I have to look at some pay stubs and do some math but I think it's going to make more sense to go part time IF I can get either on medicaid through the state or a cheaper plan through the ACA. which I'm not sure if that will happen but I'll see.

I was going to post about something else but I completely forgot from coming here from whatever webpage I was on.

I remembered!

So there's a Comic Con this weekend. It's Vermont so it's small and I checked it out to see if there were any panels I'd want to go to and I saw 2.

The Anti harassment Policy is pretty clear and since this is VT I'm not surprised. Not only is there very clear information about what constitutes harassment but they make it clear the victim defines what harassment is. And there's a very wordy way of saying no booth babes in skimpy costumes.

Nicholas Brendan is going to be there. I'm torn between -- that's awesome! and Oh dear please don't let him get drunk and get in a fight at the convention.

He's been at a few conventions in the past few months where he's been OK. He's been posting on Twitter a lot about his therapy and medication and stuff. Some of his tweets still make me kind of worried about him, though.

Though, on the other hand, I just saw this clip of NB, and he does not seem like he's doing well. And Dr. Phil is an ass, but we knew that already. [link]

I'm running low on painkillers and I won't see a doctor for another two weeks, so I'm trying to get through moderate pain tonight with Advil and fluffy fic. It's not as good as Vicodin.
