Insurance, denials and shit:

My unemployment was denied.

I can appeal.

I plan to appeal, out of pure spite.

Apparently they were very careful to get their (remaining) staff to write letters supporting my being fired. And they fired the Business Office Manager, who of coursed, opposed my being fired.

I'm calling Karma on this one.

We got the Flu, I can't say if it was H1N1 or the black plague of Calcutta, or what the fuck it was, but it was...impressive. Very impressive. Lasted about a week for us both, with fever, chills, night sweats, misery, agony and a few prayers for Death. We're better now.

I however, must have gotten dehydrated during the proceedings and wound up with "something", something that manifested as a SEVERE, SHARP pain in my lower right quadrant.

I actually had the Roomie drive me to Austin and paid the non-insured cost to see a practitioner. The service was lousy. Worse than lousy. The MA scolded me for not knowing the exact dosage of one of my meds. I suggested she look in the EMR they use, She told me "this system doesn't store that information" I told her "I used to do tech. support for that software and it most assuredly does". She was not amused, less so when I offered to show her where to find the information. This is the part where I was being deliberately snarky. She didn't ask the correct questions for someone presenting with my symptoms, and was generally a sullen incompetent ass. The PA however, was great. I'm $100 lighter, antibiotic-ed and am feeling much better.

Had a 2 HOUR interview on Thursday, am waiting to hear. Job is job at this point. Will let you know.
