A Christmas Carol

From bostonglobe.com article

"After reading an obscure literary journal published by Lowell textile workers and comparing it to Dickens’s novella, a Boston University professor and student are arguing that some of the most memorable elements of Dickens’s story—the ghosts, the tour through the past, Scrooge’s sudden reconsideration of his life—closely resemble plot points in stories by the city’s 'mill girls' that Dickens read after his visit."

~From Was Dickens’s Christmas Carol borrowed from Lowell’s mill girls?

"And all things considered, I’m still very glad I came out for that Anna Von Hausswolff show. She is really special. Her voice is powerful and good and gives me hope. If you like doomy, witchy, ethereal music, you should buy her album Ceremony. It’s gorgeous.

TL;DR — Music heals. Silence is death. Don’t ignore women when they tell you they’re in immediate danger and beg you for help."

Subsidence Inversion

http://ffden-2.phys.uaf.edu/212_spring2007.web.dir/Amber_Smith/Subsidence_Inversions.htm

Caller:  I sent in my application several days ago but I don't have a status update yet.

Call Rep.: Since your income is >15k, you automatically qualify for the state insurance. Those applications take 45 days to process. So that means...February.

Caller: But I was trying to sign up before the Dec. 23rd deadline to get covered on Jan. 1st.

Call Rep.: If you get sick, just tell the county.

Caller: I knew I qualified for the state health insurance this year, but I wanted to compare that with what I might pay for a Bronze Plan with a subsidy.

Call Rep.: You can cancel it and sign up for a private plan, but there will be no subsidy.

Caller: Why can't I get a subsidy?

Call Rep: Because of your income.

Caller: So since I make less than 15k, my income is too low for a plan with a subsidy?

Call Rep.: If you make over 15k, you can get a subsidy.

Things that don't get spelled out for you 'til you talk to someone.

Enrollment snafus

Application for health insurance was filed through CA's website on Sunday. Meant to do it sooner, but then funerals and finals came into my life. I have been waiting for a status update since Sunday. Today I experienced a thirty-minute queue for online chat support that culminated in being told "no rep. is available." Quite the letdown after a half hour of watching the countdown (300-200-100-84-57-14-4!!! Then "Please try again later.") I was given the option of e-mailing them my question. The message I immediately received: "We'll get back to you in 2 days." Now I am on hold; it's been about 20 minutes. The first time I dialed the number I was told to "Press one to talk to hot guys!" I have no idea why. I checked the number and it was dialed correctly. The second time the number led me to elevator music paradise...





The character Ms. Perry plays in the "Roar" video would not take this lying down. I am heartened. Our hands have touched the same bamboo canes! Filmed in the arboretum that is not far from where I live.

"If I find that there are certain quirky person(s) who occasionally interest me but know that I can't offer immediate assistance (such as a job) to such person(s), at the very least I could, from my heart and soul, send my very best wishes and also envision such person(s) finding themselves in the ideal circumstances to encounter people who can in some way assist them..."

"Tommy Lee Jones wrote his Harvard thesis on Catholic writer Flannery O'Connor. At the time it no doubt seemed like a subject with little relevance to the craft of filmmaking, but, in The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, it serves him remarkably well. Jones himself has admitted that the spirit of O'Connor looms heavy on his directorial debut...He clearly views the world through a pair of O'Connor shaded glasses—he views humanity as twisted and ridiculously monstrous creatures that seem hell-bent on their own destruction. Maybe he's being too cynical, or maybe he's read the first chapter of Romans. Either way, Jones doesn't let his fiendish, freakish cast of characters turn his movie into a downer—like O'Connor, he mines the darkness and finds in it a gleaming sense of the absurd. Is it dark? Heck yeah. But it's also sharply funny, even when it cuts so close to the bone it makes us feel more than a little uncomfortable."

is what you do when the neighbors are using the machines...is there some kind of meaning to shuteye dreaming that you're talking to a film director in your grandmother's house ~a very pleasant, cozy dream~ & then the next day you get the sad but not surprising news, and have to make slightly nerve-wracking travel plans to catch a redeye flight later in the week, but thinking, well at least none of them involve mulholland drive (weirdly, that site has a song about driving to LAX set to clips from the movie...)
