So I died and went to work

[sovay]

spatch and I are once again preparing to leave the house to prove to the satisfaction of our health insurance that we really live where we say we live and really make what we say we make and really are eligible for the insurance we are trying to apply for in this our annual period of open enrollment.

I complained to rushthatspeaks; I said I wanted to do necromancy on Franz Kafka and yell at him.

They pointed out that under the circumstances Kafka would probably just try to sell me insurance.

I said I'd buy it.

I don't know if it helps any to know that having tech employer sponsored health insurance does not free one from kafkaesque paperwork nightmares, as I endeavor to prove to my employer two things:
that my husband's employer inexplicably starts their health insurance year on Nov 15 instead of Jan 1, and thus we have no insurance right now and I would very much like to have it, because while I am not intending to have a medical emergency in the next six weeks, one doesn't exactly get to schedule these things in advance
that my child is my child, because for some reason, in this two thousand eighteenth year of the common era, employers cannot fathom why a mother would have a different surname than her child.

That is completely unreasonable! Good luck.

scheduled medical emergency is my new band name, and also insurance co's wet dream.
