Yes, I'm still alive.
Filling out tons of crap for work. Pissed off about my benefits, I can't sign my wife up on my insurance because of the Affordable Care Act. She has a job, but is quitting Aug 1st, to allow her a month to relax and stuff before the due date of 9/6, so we wanted to get her on my new insurance now so we know she's covered. But, because of the ACA I can't have her on my insurance because she has a job with benefits (even if she drops her benefits, she doesn't qualify) so she has to quit nearly 3 weeks early so we can process the paperwork in time and know for a fact that she'll be covered. And this is because th second you sign up for benefits, it goes into effect on the 1st of the next full month. So if we sign her up Aug 1st, she doesn't have insurance until 9/1, which is too freaking close. So we have to sign her up in the middle of july to ensure they have enough time to process it. I'm super pissed about it.
And then I spent nearly 5 hours yesterday attempting to figure out my 3. Yes, that's right. THREE freaking emails. My primary is @thestate.edu but that just forwards all email to @services.thestate.edu, so then if I reply to an email, it changes my email address which confuses people. I also can't send emails to all of my work mailing lists because those are setup for @thestate.edu. Finally found the spot after clicking tons and tons of links on the IT webpage where I can choose to have my outgoing as either of those two. Why the heck would anyone want to choose a more complicated email?!
(substitute "thestate" for the state name that i'm working for, just don't want it super obvious even though most of you hos know where I'm goin').
Oh yea, and morning all you frozen hos!
I need someone who can sew gear. I'm giving up on my previous high speed idea and gonna go with traditional materials.
Back in Feb I went shooting, and brought everything with. At the end of the day, I only shot half the ammo I brought along, and determined I wasn't having any fun. It was such a forgettable experience, I had even forgotten a gun there! [panic] Picked it up the next day with much shame.
My coworker (and fellow poster on here) thinks it was because I popped my full auto cherry in Dec, and semi auto wasn't fun anymore. His theory has been burning in my head since then. I finally went to the range again today, and only brought one gun. Ended up having a good time, wish I'd brought more ammo with, and even ran into yet a 3rd forum member while I was out there. Not sure what changed. I'd been feeling happier in general the past few weeks, since moving to a cheaper apartment. Also, all the green grass and sunny skies probably helped with the atmosphere. Whatever it was, I'm glad I enjoyed it. I'd been mulling over selling a gun or two lately, and today's experience is stopping me from doing that.
Why do radiator hoses not like me?
