Should you be in some high risk federal job, and get injured, when it comes time to purchase small things you need to keep yourself in health and parts for your wheelchair, and "they" tell you "keep your reciepts, then give them to us, and we'll repay you", do not believe them. Watch them like a small child with his first pack of matches.

Don't be a dumbass like me and let it go two years (ok, not quite, but damn near) before you start getting worried about where the hell your money is.

I got pissed about a month ago, and wrote to a bunch of Senators. Not just the Ca ones, the Ky ones as well. I even picked some of the reps and wrote to them. Again, like an idiot, I forgot to document exactly which ones.
So remember to document everything, as they say, "If it's not documented, it didn't happen."

Used to be One Guy we dealt with in San Francisco, but now workman's comp's been farmed out to this ACS place. Good freakin' luck getting ahold of someone there. If you call, plan on not doing anything but holding a phone to your ear for about 1/2 an hour, untill you can get a human. Then you'll prolly get transferred to another waitlist, maybe not, who knows.
Anyway, it sucks.
I sent in my reciepts for last month, plus some travel vouchers going hither and yon to doctors. They denied about 130$ of it. I don't have the paperwork here in front of me, or I'd give you the exact number.
That reminds me of another thing- When you get paid, you get a nice understandable pay stub right? Not me. I get some cryptic damn thing, in another envelope, which is nearly impossible to understand. Hell if I know what I was paid for, and what I wasn't.

So moral of the story? Don't get injured. If you do get injured, expect to fight tooth and nail for what the government said you could have in the first place.
Yeah, I know, everyone else out there who got popped before I did is smirking and saying "You thought you were going to be any different?"

Ok, other news. Apparently my DSL might be back on by Dec 8th. Not for lack of trying by Sunset.net, my ISP- They pretty much rock. SPC's got me bent over at the moment. Something about how we (the ISP and myself) haven't been requesting the DSL line the "right" way, or some bullshit.
Anyway, that's the new date.

My ass hurts like a bastard, and I have no percocet. Oh I have lots of vicoden, but by the time I take enough of that crap to start killing the pain, I'm doing the bobble-head. Not good when you're trying to drive, or study, or pay attention in class.
Wait a minute. My ass hurts, that crap puts me to sleep, and that's what I'm trying to accomplish at the moment. Keeping my ass from hurting and going to sleep, that is. Too bad I'm not in my chair, or I'd go get some. 'Cource I'm destroying my liver when I take it, as the level of acetomenifen (murdered that spelling, I'm sure) in the 4 to 6 vicodens I need to take for the edge to start to come off the pain is enough (if taken often) to start whoopin' the 'ol liver.
Another reason to NOT take that crap.
I hope to god the new doc gets my freakin' records and is willing to give me something for big kid pain, and quit this "Oh did the widdle kwipple stub himses toes?" bullshit.

Anyway, it's gonna be a freakin' miracle if I pass math and java. Genetics is pretty much in the bag, if I keep studying. math and programming are a different story tho... It's like learning 2 new languages at once. And it sucks. So, in a little over 2 weeks I'll either have 5 weeks off till the next semester, or the rest of my life off because I failed out of school.

Gosh do I freakin' hurt right now. I wish I had some decent (extra sharp) cheddar, some pretzels, and some pepperoncini's to eat right now.

Oh. If anyone wants some of my 4 milk-crates full of persimmons (I found a couple trees, and have 2 crates of each kind) and you can get yourself to my house, you can have some. Or, of you have a small chest freezer you're not using, and you wanna bring it over....

That flu stuff that's been goin' around? I got it some, starting last saturday. First day of thanksgiving break. (we get a week) Plus, I came in hot with a UTI the same day. So pretty much been sick the whole time off I had from school. Nice. Then Nicole got smacked with it today. 103.5 and horkin' up smurfs a couple hours ago, so I fed her 1200mg of ibuprofin, and some soup. It's coming down, and she's asleep.

I can't wait for x-mas break, so I can do some stuff I want to do. So all y'all out there, MAKE NO PLANS for me, please. It's gonna be my time. Hopefully I don't get sick (again) the minute I finish (I mean fail) finals and spin down.
