Yesterday's Entry, With Today's Date

Today was just plain weird (referring to Tuesday, of course.) I called my mother while listening to Map of the Problematique, and getting dressed. I sure know how to multitask.

She told me that Anna got picked for an honors band, and guess the place where they're playing this year?

HERE. Of all the places. So Mom and Dad and Anna are coming to visit the first weekend in November. Surprise!

Mom also got the after-Thanksgiving appointment set up. I really can't figure out how she managed it when I called them 2 1/2 months ago and the doctor wasn't going to be there during the Friday after Thanksgiving.

I also got an odd phonecall from my insurance company. The woman there wanted to know if I had gone to the hospital in Rhinelander on June 18th for a breast biopsy.

Um. That'd be a no. On June 18th I was here, on campus, taking classes. I had just gotten over the flu the week before, but my hands didn't even hurt yet because I hadn't painted anything yet.

I have so little chest. Surely I wouldn't be donating part of it to St. Mary's hospital just so they could charge me money for losing it? The insurance lady and I talked it over, and I denied, of course, that it was me. When the phone call ended, I sat down at my desk and laughed till I cried. Of all the parts on me that AREN'T working right at this moment, my rack (or lack thereof) is behaving itself admirably.

I don't know where the hospital screwed up, because the only person I DO know who has HAD a breast biopsy this year was my maternal grandmother (same one that got knocked over by the wind last week) But she had hers in April or May, HER name is totally different from mine (Lela Sackett-Becca Koshak? BIG mix-up THERE) and she's 84 1/2.

I hope they sort this out. I am NOT paying for a boob job when I didn't even get one. They can have my body as proof of non-treatment.

Today (referring to Wednesday) has been fairly quiet. I have work soon.

Here's hoping we have a state budget soon, or some people won't be going to school next semester. I, of course, am going to be FAR away in England, so I don't think I'll be affected much. They can't cancel my trip just because the entire UW system is shut down...no sirree...

Cheerio,
Bec
