unemployment.

went to the unemployment office today...although their hours are supposedly 8am to 4:30pm, at 2pm they weren't processing any new applications. so come back tomorrow, they tell me. they did let me know how much i can look to receive on unemployment tho - about $225/wk after taxes. i figure COBRA and my car payment will eat most of that up, and we'll slowly drain the savings account paying the other bills. $400ish a month for health insurance is gonna SUCK ASS, but it'd suck more ass to be uninsured.

shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather...

ya know, "like the weather" was really never a fave song by 10,000 maniacs, but that's what popped into my head trying to think of a title for this entry...

warm weather (in the 60's) for the rest of the week, but they're saying we're looking at a possibility of some snow on monday...in preparation for that, i present Make Yer Own Snowflake.

woo hoo - i'm fired!

just got off the phone with the so-called "human resources" person and i've been terminated.

ugh

had a seizure friday night, after sitting around all day waiting for "human resources" to call. and apparently this isn't the time of year to be getting sick - generally, when i call the neurologist's office and tell them i've had a seizure they usually get me in on the same day - this time i've gotta wait two weeks. dr. mohan's definitely worth it though.
