For those keeping track...

My disability check that should have come Wednesday still hasn't come I called EDD Friday morning and a zombie voiced woman asked me a handful of questions and then told me why I haven't gotten the check yet.

They were holding my check for a "personal contact."

Did I miss their call, you ask?

No. According The State Zombie there is a state mandate that they wait for me to call them.

Not just me, everyone, but me in this case.

I should have it on Tuesday.

So, my stress level has lowered, but I'm still not sleeping.

BTW -- Joe has been blogging from the road.

If you haven't looked at his blog recently, you've missed a lot.

Goil Pile

I just had a nice chat with Tavie and Kitana. I miss them so.

Tavie had to leave because she was feeling icky, but Kit and I chatted for a while longer. We were discussing the time before Goils. (B. G.) That time was dull, colourless, and washed out.

It's strange to think of a time before I knew Our Little Group, it makes me feel lucky in a time when I'm feeling very unlucky and less than.

Find your own Goils, you'll thank me for it later.

So what's it gonna be?

Will I be able to sleep tonight?

My disability check hasn't come yet, the automated phone system says that the last check they sent out was the one I got two weeks ago and I can't call anyone to ask until the morning. Brooke, my therapist, convinced me not to go back on the Trazodone and try for natural sleep. No over the counter stuff, no herbs, nothing but calming thoughts and a restful soul.

Fuck, no, I'm not going to sleep tonight!

Hold me.

Rick on Six Feet Under

Steph sent me this comment:This has nothing to do with anything, but I noticed Rick Overton's name in the Six Feet Under credits of last night's episode. Is it your bud Rick?

And yes it is! I was a little disappointed that he wasn't in it more. More so, I'm sad that they didn't use a scene that he told Di and me about when he was here in January at Sketchfest. They let him adlib some stuff - he's giving the elegy - the camera moves towards him "...God, how she loved to run..." and pans away.

How could they not use that?

Did anyone else notice that Tucker's brother was in that episode, too?

Rejoice!

Joe is blogging again. He's going to be on the road this week -- Albuquerque, New Mexico, if you're in the area check him out -- so who knows if he's going to be able to find internet access to be able to post from the road.

I hope so. He's on a roll.
