One day between vacation and work

Lots of laundry, lots of mail.

Got a letter from my employer saying my life insurance paperwork, which I submitted on October 3, 2002, has just been processed. They also collected $330 in payments out of mylast paycheck to cover the previous year. Anybody want to guess how easy it would have been to collect on it had I died anytime over thepast 12 months? It went on to say how they would collect double payments until my insurance premiums had caught up - and then took it all in one lump sum anyway. At least I think that's what it is, I have a $330 collection for "Deduction Adjustments" that was taken out of the paycheck I got while we were in Oregon.

Vacation is over, back to the usual bullshit.

Well, something finally went wrong

Oneof the computers here had been acting up when we left, and today I decided to scrap the thing. Well, I had to move certain things such as the pocket PC and digital cameras to one of the two remaining PCs.

It wasn't exactly trouble free either, as it resulted in no less than seven USB devices on one of the systems. In the process of installing the drivers for the digital camera so I could get the pictures out of it I've been trying to get out since we got home, it somehow erased them all.

In several cases I made a point of taking a regular film picture along with the digital one, so I didn't lose everything. But there were a fair number of digital only pictures and this was really aggravating. And I have to wait to finish the film roll before I know if those came out or not.

Fuck.
