I have to call my insurance company about that. But i haven't got time lately. And tomorrow is looking extremely busy again.

Medical billing can be a very complicated matter and I've no doubt there are MANY errors. The best strategy I've found for dealing with medical bureaucracies is persistence.

I hope you're able to get it much closer to 100%.

Watching the first part of Loving Vincent, an animated film about Van Gogh that features hand-painted illustrations from more than 100 artistis, all in Van Gogh's style. Most is true to the originals, but one of the voices is Aidan Turner of Poldark -- and the artist must have fallen in love because the character looks like Turner. I'd say right down to the hair, but the character is wear a hat.

I will now treat myself to a mini pie--cherry for Valentine's Day.

Good night from a much happier camper.

Now will someone tell me why when I work for a company that supposedly has great health insurance, my health insurance didn't pay close to 40% of my doctor's bill for the recent surgery?

Yikes!  That's terrible! >:(

I saw that and bought the Blu-ray!  I'd read that they specifically looked for actors that looked like the people in the paintings that they chose to use for the movie.

So, I'm stuck at Burger King!  Here's what I posted on FB for my new cover photo:

I was in Burger King, eating a grilled chicken salad and cop cars started driving by. I didn't think much of it. When I finished eating and was going to leave, that's when I saw that my car was blocked and I couldn't leave, so I took the picture and came back into the restaurant. I'm otherwise safe and sound. :D

So, do you think any grumpy adults out there are going to hand out Tide Pods this Halloween?

Yeah, I can see that now. Soarise Ronan looks like her character, too. I just don't know the other voices, I guess.

Well, it appears everyone (including me, which is the most important thing) survived the Anything Goes run-through.  I honestly didn't think I was going to survive the day leading up to it, cramming the book into my head and fingers.  I shall try to have a little more sense next time I feel like sacrificing myself to a project.  Had I taken five minutes to think about it AND look through the score first, I would not have done it.  Very tricky, that Beaumont.

This was without having to attempt the long dance breaks.  The MD had thankfully made tracks of those for them to work with.  Those could NOT have been accomplished today.  That's the only way this worked.  They'd be ridiculous played on just piano anyway.

They had an interesting thing there to play on:  a Yamaha electronic piano that not only looks pretty much like a typical studio piano, it totally FEELS like a piano.  You really can't say that about any keyboard, no matter how expensive and nicely weighted the keys are.  This was fun to play.

That Porter music ain't all simple AABA stuff, is it? But did you have fun in all the exhaustion, ChasSmith?

Two burly construction workers I would have never thought were cat fosters came for Magnificat Cat Rescue to pick up the cans of food, some stainless steel dishes, litter, and dry food I was donating.  They were really great, and I appreciate their willingness to cart it all down the three flights.

And so the kitties and I are going to bed.

Glad it went well. Can you use this as a charitable deduction?

He should be able to.

Kristen Stewart must have had a good director in "American Ultra" as she was good in it.  We watched the movie on Netflix tonight.

What's American Ultra and how did you find it on Netflix.  I read about all these movies but they never show up for me.
