Called the clerk at the Tacoma Federal Courthouse to see what I could do. Took a couple tries., but got to a human and asked for advice. She said to just fill out the form, state the financial hardship, and they'd defer me. Great, I said, but the rules state that I cannot get "unlimited deferrals" for financial hardships, so what would happen

A kidney stone is nothing to take lightly. We've all got our issues lately, to be sure, so if you need to vent, by all means, go for it. It's your journal, anyhow.

Rant away, my good man. Your problems might seem minor in comparison to others', but they're yours. If I had to deal with the issues that you've been dealing with over the past couple of months, I swear I'd be in a mental institution by now.

Regards to the weight loss, here's something that helped me when I was doing First Place and getting frustrated with teeny-tiny losses of weight. Go to the meat section at the grocery store. Find a package of ground beef that weighs 1 pound. Note how big 1 pound seems. Every 1 pound that you lose is that one pound of ground beef. (I know, fat =/= muscle, but a pound of feathers and a pound of lead...)

Yeah, I think the US District court system does have at least one courthouse per state, just for ease of administration. The CIRCUIT court system, though.... you'd have to go to San Francisco, I think.

Get better soon.

I agree with those above who commented above. It helps. It is your journal.
