I was having an absolutely horrible day on Feb. 21, 2019. I had gone to the doctor because my toenail was turning colors and my toes were hurting with any pressure put on them. My headache had returned in full force, and I felt like crap. My doctor told me I had a toe fungus infection and would have to take medicine for three months. My insurance would only pay for one month at a time, so I had to fight with them to get the rest, which ended up being a long, drawn-out process because no one understood why the insurance wouldn't pay for it, then no one understood why the insurance wouldn't let me get some of the medicine to be a stop-gap between when I ended the first dose and started the second dose.
Anyway, after my doctor's appointment, I had a call from the student loan company. Apparently, the forbearance they'd given me had been rescinded and they wanted me to pay a few months' loan payments right then. I had been told to ignore any phone calls from them after I'd agreed to the forbearance, but hadn't received any phone calls from them anyway. The lady on the phone kept insisting that I pay and kept insisting that they had tried to contact me by phone and that she was seeing this on my record of communication. Bullshit. I finally got them to agree to do the forbearance over again, and send me the form information to fill out for the income-based repayment plan that would pay the loan for me for a year (what I'd agreed to in the first place). I never got an answer as to why they thought that they had tried to contact me, why they didn't contact me about the error in the first place, and why they thought it was ok to wait a few months to make sure I knew that they wanted their money they were insisting was due. Why wouldn't you contact the customer when you realized that an error had been made? Probably because it hadn't been an error at all, and they'd denied my forbearance and didn't want to tell me so they'd potentially get more money out of me. Not happening! I don't have the money anyway, and I would spend it on necessary things instead. Why doesn't anyone believe me when I say how little I make? Is it that hard to understand that someone could make $100 (or just over) a month??? It happens!!!
On my way to the bus stop, I realized that I needed to put money on my Hop card. Funny thing: no one can put cash onto a card on your phone, just onto a card that you actually have in your hand, because they need to swipe it! I let the company know exactly what I thought of that. But, to pay for my bus fare from the cash, I needed to break the $100 bill that Scott had given me. I bought a blind-bag unikitty, but didn't open it right away. I ended up getting my medicine (after fighting with them, like I said, at the pharmacy), then opened this on my way back. It was the angry unikitty, and Lego had helpfully included spare parts! I needed that laugh, and it turned my whole day around! The rest of the day was ok, then.
I was having a really bad day and was very angry at the world. I stopped at a small store and got the angry unikitty, with extra parts, and the laugh helped my day get better. My journaling is merged into the background, and tells this in more detail.
I used the "Optimism" template and three papers, all from The Cherry On Top. The font is "Yippy Skippy."
