Bureaucratic worms I hate my insurance plan. It's Blue Cross. It's through my school. My doctor called in a prescription today for me. The pharmacist wants me to bring my insurance card with me to pick up my prescription. Fine. I don't have one. I always go to the doctor on campus, and no card is required other than my school ID. So I go to the student health website, and look for any link whatsoever that will let me print out my id. I've done this in the past, before we had Blue Cross. I can't find anything other than the instructions that if I go to a provider, I need to provide my id card. So I go to the Blue Cross website, register to get an id and password, then request to print out a temporary id. Well, it says that is not available for my account. Fuckers. So I request to have one mailed to me. Well, that service is temporarily not available. I hate this bullshit. I hate the fucking bureaucratic bullshit that I run into every time I try to do anything with my school. I suppose it's a downfall of going to such a huge school (UCLA), but geez. Why does everything have to be so user-unfriendly? And you know why I need a prescription? Because last night I discovered that my darling little angels all have worms again. I fucking hate that. It's so fucking gross, but my eight year old? She doesn't care at all. They don't bother her, and worms don't bother her, and why is it gross again? But she is the one who has to be reminded every single fucking time she poops that she needs to wash her hands. And she never does a thorough job. If she comes home with muddy hands, and you ask her to wash them (because she will never think to wash them on her own), she will just barely use a little soap, then leave brown all over the towel. Her fingernails are frequently black. She's gotten better about that, but they are still dirty a lot. So now I feel my entire house is a den of filth and contamination, and that we are all disgusting creatures who can never possibly get clean. The fact that they only way you can get it is by consuming eggs that were lain on someone's anus is fucking disgusting. I don't think I have them. The last time I was the last one to succumb. This time, all of us are taking the medicine. And lots of laundry and disinfecting will be done. |
