I wonder...

...do I want more readers?
As I've said...it's kind of my diary.
Putting it in public...kind of like asking for validation.

This is kinda my diary...

...yet I'm okay with sharing.

Yeah!

...a raise!
Have to say...my $.43 an hour raise probably the biggest since I've been in my job.
I've been with the company almost fifteen years.
Yeah...I am fabulous...as are the women I work with.
We are the bread and butter of the company.
They should be treating us better.

The Way Politicals...

...have been going scares the crap out of me.
I am pretty much apolitical.
The reason? I think we end up voting for the best of the worst. Think the system has gotten to be about the players...and not the people they were elected to work for.
I don't care what party the representatives align themselves with.
My impression of you?
You're been acting like cranky two year olds. No sharing. No talking. Petulant children.
Has anyone in this whole mess of tabloid campaign ever said what they're for...or going to do?
Song that is apropos...
Video Killed the Radio Star.

Year and many months later...

...we've received a bill from the hospital for my neck disc surgery. Of course it is marked in big yellow letters Payable on Receipt.
The insurance companies can dance for a year and a half...but we better pay this immediately.
Our portion $978.
What insurance covered...$44900. Thank gobsmacked me.
The titanium in my neck is worth $13700.
I'm glad I had the surgery because it made a difference.
What about the people who can't afford?
We declared bankruptcy about three years ago because of medical bills.
