Advice : Dealing with Insurance people after an accident
I don't know if I'm being jerked around by this guy or not and was hoping some people out there might be willing to dialogue with me via chat or something if you've come out of dealing with auto accident crap (when you weren't the party who initiated the accident) and felt like you got a fair deal.
My big problem is that they say that since I am ( Read more... ) -
Oh life...
So the car is finally at a shop. They are now saying the engine mount isn't because of the accident even thought they specifically had me go to TWO other mechanics to confirmt that it was. And maybe they won't pay for it. Jackasses. Looks like repairs won't be done until the day I leave for Seattle. Which has a plus and a minus - plus side is ( Read more... ) -
And the car drama continues
Now it is clunking going into gear.
It rattles worse than ever.
And it was pointed out that my right rear wheel (where the other car hit me) is canted in at the top... great. Fuck. And insurance was already dragging their heels about ANY repairs to the front end. Someone w/decent car knowledge thinks I may have frame damage.
Shit.Shit.Shit. Going to ( Read more... ) -
Poor little smashbutt car
So.. in all the craziness and prep for RMFC I was working most of last week without a car. Due to (I may have mentioned) my boyfriends roommate forgetting I was parked in the driveway. So I dropped it off Friday with a friend of a friend. Relied on the boyfriend and the roommate for rides for con prep and did allright. And then I picked it up ( Read more... ) -
On food and art
So for those of you that don't know, I am wheat sensitive. Not gluten, but wheat. And it causes all sorts of joint problems for me. I am also carb sensitive to a lesser degree. As in a meal or two with carbs or sugars a week is fine, I exceed that much and my muscles start freaking out. And I have gotten worse and worse since I moved to CO, due ( Read more... ) -
A quick recap
Of the last two month - bulleting style it b/c the idea of writing it all coherently makes me crazy and I want to write about life now and feel bad with this bigass gap.
so June started with basically 2 weeks hellish cramming for AC (b/c I spent a lot of May sick after too much work/exhaustion)
then 2 weeks hellish cramming for an art show at the ( Read more... ) -
Still Sick...
My body clearly decided it was done. I pushed it through crazy business in June... through AnthroCon, through my Art Show opening, through my dads visit. But by the time a friend came to visit a week ago it was done. Started with a day where I sneezed all bloody day and moved on to hacking coughs and general exhaustion. l started feeling a lot ( Read more... ) -
AC Panels and location
As a reminder I will be at AC this weekend at table K19 next to Myenia. i.e. walk in the door and the first full length row on your right, I'll be a two tables up it facing the short rows.
Also, I will be hosting TWO panels both on Thursday evening.
One will be Inspiration in Art from 7-8:30 (in Westmoreland room) and the other will be Equine Anatomy ( Read more... ) -
Perhaps not the best time to experiment
Working on a few new pieces to sell at AC. Realize I used water soluble marker for one. Decide to fix. Can't find fixative/gloss spray varnish. Move on to Acrylic Gloss Medium. Smear said art. We'll see how this looks when it dries ( Read more... ) -
All At Once
"Life has many ways of testing a person's will, either by having nothing happen at all or by having everything happen all at once"
~Paulo Coelho
So I saw this quote this morning and realized that it is both very true and that I am once again in the all at once portion of it. This month is going to be absolutely nuts. I have three large commissions I ( Read more... )
