Stress Headache

Tweet

My mother died of a brain aneurysm, so under normal circumstances I would be in the doctor's office having a headache I've had for most of the last week checked out. Given that it mysteriously disappeared when I got out of town on Friday afternoon, however, I'm pretty sure that it is just a stress headache. It reappeared today. Why? I had to call two VA hospitals (one is bad enough!), my former health insurance company and their third-party collection agency because they sent me a letter claiming that I owed them over $5,000 from my broken ankle (it turns out, they claim, that they meant the property's insurance company owes them $5,000...but there was no mention of the property's insurance company, only "YOU need to send us a check for $5,000"), Lowe's to see if they're ever going to fix their defective gutter guards (you know there's something wrong when there are four bird nests cleaned out of a gutter with a "gutter guard" on it...either the gutter guard is defective or the birds have tools to break in my gutter!), and Time-Warner because my cable bill went up. As Mark Chesnutt once sang, it sure is Monday!
