Yeah yeah. Pearl has an old ripped sleeping bag in my office, where she sleeps while I'm working/cellaring/etc. As part of her morning routine, she waits for me to lift it up to create a cave that she can get into. After two hours in this -0°F rated bag, it's boiling under there, and she loves it.

She will burrow under covers whenever she can, but under the pillow is a new one.

She's 13 pounds, so she fits nicely, and my pillow is too thin anyway.

Very cute, but we would've like the story better with a picture. :D

Pics or it didn't happen.

My prescription insurance company is so on top of things, they can send me a letter of explanation as to why they can't reimburse my claim inside the very same envelope as the reimbursement for that claim.

Ohhh Clod - I so feel your pain.

Clodfobble 08-17-2010 06:48 PM

Yeah, but I did get the check after all, so it's in the amusing thread and not the irritating thread. :)

Obviously their new envelope sharing program has created the savings necessary so they can pay additional claims. It probably took a program director and 6 program managers to get that change in place.

Today I learned that Insurance companies who make payments in September may retract them in July, yes almost a year later. For what is apparently no reason. Isn't that special.

Pissed off people pissing on each other as they post about their angst on Craigs list. funny as hell.

OH I forgot to add that they then send ME the bill telling me its now my responsibility... Uh? No. Fill out your paperwork properly and there wouldn't have been an issue in the first place.

One of my relatives has a cat that they got from the people who run the dump-apparently she was poisoned earlier in her life which accounts for her odd behaviour. She's a cantankerous thing, hates being picked up and protests very loudly whenever someone tries to do this, but she loves being under the covers and quite often you'll find her in the bed where she stays all night and is even magnanimous enough to purr. Once morning arrives though, she's off and doesn't want to know you.

Well, do you hang around with your hot water bottle during the day? :lol:

On target as always, Bruce.

Wait for it.... Wait for it....
