Good morning, all! It was a hellish night for sleep. I went to bed at 10, tossed until 11, and then the rad construction began on West 82nd Street: first a streetcleaner or something like it noisily and slowly made its way east from Broadway; following that, there was more noisefrom repair work late into the night. Iwas out of bed by six, but I suspect I'll be crashing around 9 pm tonight.
I may have to make an emergency trip to my health insurance offices this morning, because in the past 10 business days, my check hasn;t arrived in the post and my second check, sent by priority US post, is sitting in some PO box waiting for the tardy asses to pick up their mail: they've got $1700+ of mine held hostage and they're threatening to close my account if I don't pay them $800+ dollars today. If I cancel one of the ckecks, the bank wll charge me $25, which I loathe, so all I can do is call around 8 am and see what can be done or I will need to schlep to Water Street and walk a half a mile to their offices. Either way, I'm really pissed that their mail collection is so pathetic and slow. I remember years ago when one of my payments reached them in 3-4 gays and then bounced because I had posted it before I had made the expected deposit in my checking account. Fuckem.
Beyond that, I have few plans for the day. Perhaps the NYPL.
