My Printer Is Possessed

That is the only logical explanation left. All of a sudden, it has decided that each sheet of paper is approximately six sheets thick, thus it grabs that many to print. Of course, that many won’t go through the machine, so it jams. But if I have only one sheet in the tray to try to trick it, it won’t take it in at all, and still tells me I have a paper jam. Might be time to retire it, although being me I’m going to try to fix it until it is broken so horribly beyond recognition that giving it a decent burial would be the only humane thing.

Working for the Weekend

Just got my call this morning, and apparently I’m doing a show this weekend. Four performances in three days, doing what I normally do for hockey games for a monster truck thing. Should be interesting. Now to fill in the next couple of days with something other than sitting in front of the TV!

Roller Coaster Day

But not in the fun way. First phone call of the day from the occupational health office telling me my records will be available for me to pick up on Friday. Excellent! Second call from the lawyer, wherein I found out he’s not very hopeful I might win my appeal, and doesn’t recommend hiring him or anyone to fight it. Not so excellent. Will now spend the rest of the day contemplating career choices that will allow me to stay on crutches forever, and praying for health care reform so pre-existing conditions no longer automatically exclude you from coverage.

Finally Scheduled!

I was beginning to think we’d be celebrating another milennium before my workers’ comp. hearing got scheduled, but much to my amazement the letter came today. It’s going to be near the end of March. Not bad, altogether, considering it will be exactly four months and 14 days since I got hurt. With any luck at all the mediator will see how silly it is that they denied my claim and I’ll be getting my knee fixed. I’m not holding my breath, but I am holding on to hope.

Down To The Wire

First, let me say congratulations to Team Canada’s women’s hockey players! I didn’t get to see all of it, but what I saw looked like it was a pretty darn fine game, and y’all deserved the win. Now on to men’s hockey. While I know that Finland and Slovakia have exceptional teams (obviously, or they wouldn’t be there), my dream is to see another USA vs. Canada gold medal game. We’ll know after tonight, so good luck to all those participating!
