My brother’s girlfriend, Jess, txted me tonight. I’m not even sure why. I like her even though our interaction has been limited to e-mail and txt message. She seems like a smart girl and is actually going to get her master’s degree. Add that to her giant tattoo and she is the best of the bunch so far. Anyway, she sends me a message asking if I know what “city club” is. I had no idea if she was talking about a place, a band, a restaurant or what. She replied that it was a bar and I said that I was old and unhip … but I guess it’s been around for over 30 years LOL. Detroit was about the last place my friends and I would have gone drinking. But it’s nice that Jess has this awesome image of me as a hipster, even if it is becoming painfully clear I am far from it!

I called my doctor’s office today about a bill I received. Sigh. I got a denial letter from the insurer — the insurer I fucking had THREE YEARS AGO. They also submitted the charges under my married name, a name which has not been legally mine for more than two years. Mind you, I’ve been going to this practice for more than seven years. The gist of it was that whomever billed my last two office visits to my ex-husband’s insurance LOL. The woman I talked to must have been divorced, too, because when I said we hadn’t been married for more than two years, she said, “Huh. You think he would have noticed by now.” She “hid” the relationship between me and Josh in the system so hopefully that should be that. At the beginning of the year, when I reviewed my info, they had my mailing address as the apartment he lived in after we divorced. WTF? If someone at the doctor’s office is trying to play cupid, it ain’t gonna work!
