Anyone remember the bizarre week in August 2007 when I was employed for one week by a psychotic duo in a Silicon Valley startup? Anyone?
Well, aside for the euphoria-induced Monday when I started at an amazing job with kickass salary, followed by a buzzing Tuesday, a busy Wednesday booking travel to represent them at a conference because I so fucking rocked, a Thursday when I started to get frosty treatment and hushed intimations that my initiation by hazing was in full swing followed swiftly by a Friday when I was called into the conference room and summarily fired, it was great. At least those five days made me eligible for COBRA! Woot!
Well, I received notice today that the company is ceasing operations and therefore all COBRA coverage will end as of June 30.
In eleven days.

I’m guessing that COBRA is some sort of health insurance through your ex place of employment?
Sucks. I’m sorry things are getting a little bit worse for you. I’m crossing my fingers that someone offers you a wonderful job. You deserve it.

I have no words for this latest development. The world truly sucks at times. I am so very sorry and thinking of you as you navigate this latest white rapid in the river of life.

Yep, it’s the last-ditch insurance before you go bare. And without it, I can’t get insured! This happened once before and it took almost a year before every carrier rejected me and the government finally had to cover me.
Bleh.
But today! Donut day!
