Good grief

I verified with my benefits department that my medical insurance kicked in on day one of work. I went in and cancelled my COBRA this week so that we didn't have to pay another $800+ for June.

Not thinking about it, I re-ordered prescriptions yesterday. I spoke with the pharmacy last night, and of course, my old insurance had expired. I don't have the new insurance number. The benefits department at work is closed for the weekend. The customer number at the insurance is closed for the weekend.

I called the help desk number at the insurance company for pharmacists. They actually helped me. Well, kinda. My information is not on the system. I have to wait until Monday to talk to work. I'm pretty sure the pharmacy will sell me a few pills to last me until Monday night.

Thank you and you and you

Party over. Whew.

Everyone that responded to Steve's invite showed up except for two people. One of those who didn't make it was supposed to cater part of it. Good thing we ordered some extra stuff from safeway.com "just in case."

Special thanks to Witten for chauffering Steve to get the cake. Thanks to chasbearphoenix and bconn for lots of help, especially with the missing caterer. Thanks to Josh & Kev for delivering the extra hot tub towels. Thanks to Eric for providing the entertainment that Steve wanted.

Thanks to voracious LJ readers who saw something I posted before deleting it and made sure I had a drink in my hand throughout the evening. That helped!

Steve had a good time, and so did I. It was a lot more work than a Gary-aoke, but some guys don't turn 60 every day.

A special thanks to Steve for being a lovely host.

A lot of things didn't work out for a party today, but the guests were super, and the weather was pretty much perfect.
