Mail Call

Remember that MRI scheduled for this evening? Today's snail brings News! from Anthem Blue Cross. After due consideration, they agree that an MRI is reasonable in the case and will allow the appointment to stand.

WTF? Anthem gets to decide if my knee hurts bad enough for me to Do Something About It?

Ghod, we need a health care system in this country. Please.

please soon.

I am hopeful that the congress will give us that mythical 'public option' before the first of the year. Because as a self-employed person, I want #$%#% insurance.

Once upon a time, we had been able to afford our own health insurance as freelancers, but it kept edging up toward "impossible," then the publisher went bust and it was impossible, and thus the day-job.

If there was any way I could afford to pay for health insurance out of our freelance pocket, I'd be outta there like a shot, poorly as it reflects upon me to say so.

*whispers: soon, soon, soon, soon. . .*

Right, because all women of childbearing age *obviously* want children...
