Bum and Double Bum

Feb 18, 2009 23:26

Okay, One, Senator Burr's office got involved in my dad's fight with the VA today - and got us back to where we were last August. "Check back in 60 days." We have been hearing "check back in 30 days" and "check back in 60 days for 6 months. That is three sets of 60 days and six sets of 30 days, for you math fans.

So I'm wondering if I write Obama's office (what a fine old Irish name, o'Bama) or call the ABC Ombudsman at the local station.

AND I have to start preparing for when they - the nursing home - dump my dad out on the street.

The other big bum was I got into the shed that I wasn't able to get into for four months to find this guy did a REALLY bad job and it leaked all winter. Paper is destroyed - books, comics (several hundred dollars worth, even in todays depressed market), original manuscripts and artworks. Electronics are rusted and/or corroded. I can only stay in for a few minutes because the mold is so thick.

So, for those who know me and know how much stuff I have that is either paper or electronics ... you might know what a big sucky thing this is.

Tapes. Did I mention tapes? Cassettes and reel tapes? They are all iron oxcide and the iron gets wet and oxidizes. Ruined ruined ruined.

And I can't pop down to Walmart and replace ANY of it..

This sucks. Both suck.

The conjugation of To Suck.
