Month/Cycle: 17/14

CD/DPO: 20/6dpIUI

Timing: IUI

Typical LP length: 10 days

Testing: weekend? maybe?

R/R: Ugh, the bank is infuriating. Never got ahold of them yesterday. Supposedly they're going to call me, but I'm probably going to have to just call right when they open on my day off in a couple days. Also, I made the mistake of looking at my insurance website to see if the claims for my IUI hit yet. The IUI itself didn't, but the monitoring did, and we "may" (read will) owe a good chunk more than I expected, so that's super fun. And I have two tests at school tomorrow, one of which I only found out about yesterday. And today's a super long day with school and work. And I couldn't find any paczkis locally yesterday. Blugh.

@fantasyflyte does it make you want to scream how it says "you may owe" like it's going to somehow be optional?  bc that's how i feel.

R/R: DH and I finished Inventing Anna on Netflix and it sent me into an immediate internet deep dive of all the important players lol. Highly recommend if you haven't seen it yet, it's a good one. Also mid-season both our minds were BLOWN because we couldn't quite place one of the actors  - hello, Anna Chlumsky from My Girl!! I haven't seen her in anything else as an adult so that was a pleasant surprise. I just hate when I get through series because I never know what to start watching next! I rely on sitcoms I've watched a million times because *anxiety*.

CS/Q: Not today!

@fantasyflyte Insurance claims are the WOAT, I'm so sorry!!! The amount of sorcery in predetermining how much I'll owe for any services is just ridiculous. I hope it ends up being less than you think it might be.

@mrsmtothek my friend Laura was in a courtroom waiting for her client when Anna was being arraigned. She had no idea who the lady was or why there were cameras but she got in a few background photos. I have two episodes left in it still. I find these things very interesting.

@anniemarie887 YES it's infuriating! I'm just going to wait for the bill to come from the RE itself, but at least I just got a covid relief refund from school, so I just put it right in the HSA.

@mrsmtothek it's extra annoying because we appear to have hit our deductible last year in time that I only had copays for the monitoring during my first monitored cycle in December, but it's very confusing, plus it was a different insurance company, so I can't really parse it to figure out if I'll actually owe so much this time. I'm just going to see what happens with the actual billing, and I guess at least it pushes us closer to meeting our deductible this year. Which makes me extra hope this is the cycle, so that I can be pregnant and have the zillion appointments all after deductible. Insurance sucks.
