So I am plonking down to slog through the re-application form (fortunately digital, still just tedious and vaguely PTSD-adjacent thanks to the number of times I've had to do this post-fuckery). Would happily accept intermittent distraction and/or cheering on/checking in on my progress.

Once that's over with, I will play catch-up about all the much more exciting things since the last time I turned up for review. XD

You can do it. Make that Bureacuracy roll!

I'm putting on some thumpy music on Pandora as background. While everything loads very slowly.

(Which reminds me to make another thread with you at some point to talk the current state of laptops and what to expect, kk?)

Slightly if temporarily derailed: groceries are ready to get picked up ahead of schedule so I'm going along for the assist first instead of "once I finish this thing."

BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN.

Charge!

THERE GOD. Trudged through & submitted. Now the "and wait" portion.

Insert Canadian incredulousness at the bullshit your country makes you go through to have health care here.

But YAY DONE.

THE FORMS WERE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT, BECAUSE THE BULLSHIT HAS BEEN CHANGING TO BE EVEN MORE BULLSHITTIER.

I'm pretty sure that I haven't yet, but that if my efforts to start making money so I can save / actually move out of my mom's/back to Phoenix are anything other than laughable and only fiscally useful after long-term accumulation in a jar under my mattress, I'm going to end up ineligible for state-funded health insurance, but unable to pay for private.

(Then penalized for not having it.)

BUT, that's a slight gibber-inducing terror that gets to get sat down upon and squashed for a while as it's Not Immediately Relevant.

BUT HOORAY DONE.

I am going to take over control of Canada and start quietly purloining US states one by one, I swear.

I'm going to reward myself with some hoarded chocolate easter bunny, reading a thing someone wrote for a game I'm not in (but have been told I might find interesting to read), and making icons, because for me that is Fun and for them it is Torment.

I approve of your plan.

Less world domination, more exasperated forcible systematic improvement.

Well, gentle suggestions.

And a no-gloves hockey fight if they don't listen

GENTLY disappointed.
