^^^Can I come too? I'll bring cornbread & crackers!

To whom it may concern:
I really need the money for school. I am dead broke and I can't afford to cover my school expenses or my medical expenses. My last script was going to cost me $250 if the insurance people didnt pay for it. I think the pharm. knew when I looked my mom in the eyes and told her "I'll deal with the pain because I wont let you pay that much for some pills" that I was really in pain and I really couldnt afford the meds. I didnt see a doctor after four months of pain because I couldn't afford it even with insurance. $40 office visit co-pay + $500 deductatble on all scripts means that going to the doctor is going to cost way more than the $4 I have. So, I'm asking that you remedy this situation. I just dont get it. 2 jobs, a scholarship, federal loan, money from my mom and I'm still unable to pay tuition & room & board! Right now Im burning my candle at both ends and in the middle too. I need help! I know marriage is usually not the solution to financial problems, but I'm seriously considering it.
Thanks,
Me

Dear Dennis' favorite fan:

IASK:
you can't go to your school's student health clinic? Imma need you to handle that with the quickness, 4 months in pain is not good. Does your school offern insurance for students?

Yes, you can come over!!

With concern,
me

Dear sleep center of my brain:
I dunno what gear you are in, but kindly return to the one that shuts all operations down at approximately 11:30 pm? This up-till-4am isht is NOT working. My temper is already short this week!

Tiredly,
the sleepy mom

Dear Nikki:
Thanks for the concern! I have insurance through my school and outside insurance. Been there done that as far as the student clinic goes. They referred me to a neurologist (who I called in Nov. and couldn't get an appointment with until Jan.). The bolded above is one of my problems. I haven't been to sleep before 7/8 am in months. Its only getting worse because its starting to be a psyc stressor because people around me just dont get it. Everyone keeps saying "why dont you just go to sleep?" or "you just need to lay down at a decent hour and dont get up then you'll fall asleep" or my mom (who takes the cake) "you just have to promise yourself that you wont sleep between the hours of 8am and 8pm" I just want to scream "WTF if that worked we wouldnt be having this conversation!" UGH! But hopefully between the blood work my doctor at home did and whatever this neurologist says when I go see him they'll figure it out.

Thanks for the invite! When will the Chilli be ready? I will be early fyi. Cant stand it when people beat me to the food. LOL.

Anticipating Chilli,
Me

Dear Losing coach of last night's game, (Melanie?)

I'm sorry your Lady Hoopsters lost -- actually yall's offense was pretty bad and it was not a fun game to do. But, it was not a total waste. It was a pleasure watching you on the bench, in all of your foineness. As your team got behind by 5, 10, and then 15 points, you sat there with that pretty smile, taking it all in. If they gave points for "coaching cuteness," yall probably would have only lost by 20 instead of the 28,30 points yall lost by.

Never have I had so much fun watching a coach during time outs. (I would have even let you argue a few calls with me....for a little while, anyway.) I'd advise you get some new plays for your team, but as long as you on the bench, I'm more than happy to officiate any game you are a part of.

Tony,

Ask her does she need an assistant.

Dear Idina,

I think you're wonderful. It takes a lot of heart to admit you wish for your "chocolatey babies" to see themselves reflected in their president. Black women across America have said that repeatedly, but for a white woman to say it is just...acceptance at a level I haven't seen thus far. I don't even think that's the word I'm looking for, but it's as close as I can get. Those kids are really going to come into a home full of strength and love with parents who want them to embrace their total identity without having to "choose sides." Thank you, that made my day.

P.S. With a husband like yours, your future kids will be some beautiful little beings. Make them babies, girl.
