the FINAL final act

Gather round, children, for I have a story to tell you!

So, as of my last post (and my sorries that it was in September...how patiently you wait!), I had spoken with Donna at CSI and she sent my claim confirmation email. So I got it opened up, printed and signed the release, and faxed it back to CSI. According to them, I should receive my claim check (from Express, no less) within 45 days.

Including weekends, yesterday (the day that the check arrived in my mailbox) was day #50. Are we shocked? No. Do I care? Nope. It's in my hands! A few interesting points: I first called Express on Friday the 6th to check on the status of my check, and they never answered/called me back. I called them again on Monday and they were like, oh yeah, we mailed it a day or so you called! Ok, whatev. You're in Houston, I'm in SA...should take two days, max. I call them again yesterday, and they're like, well, we sent it...it should be coming...k, whatever. So I finally get it today, and guess what?? The check is dated 11/7/09...a day AFTER my first call! I bet they were just going to sit on it til I called! Haters.

Also, note on my facebook album that the handwriting on the envelope looks like a serial killer's handwriting, AND they can't spell my street name. Interesting. BUT I HAVE THE CHECK! I think I'll photocopy it before I cash it, and then I can frame it or put it in a scrapbook or something.

more later about my life; just thought i'd share the last bit of the saga!
