finance, bureaucracy, ph, mh, charity, guilt (--) 

Looks like my insurance is dicking me over for about $1200 over a technicality about whether my PCP is in the right "service tier," something that was absolutely not made clear in any of their materials.

I'll be fine, but it means I'll probably have to spend my stimulus payment -- when and if it ever comes -- on medical expenses instead of just fanning it straight to charity, and I apologize to anyone who was hoping to get a piece of that.

I'll still be doing my best to tighten up my belt and work full 40-hour weeks, so I might still be in good shape to offer some help. It's just going to take longer than I was hoping...

(Update: Don't give up hope, it looks like while damn near nothing was _technically_ covered, I get an... essentially random-looking... "member discount" for each service? So it's all a matter of whether any of that whatsoever ends up applying to my pending $800 in lab fees. There's a *chance* that roughly half of it will disappear...)
