I received an early birthday present today...
I signed up for Medicare!

I realized that I was supposed to take care of this 3 months ahead of my birthday, which is now...

So I called up, and it's going to happen!

I wish so much that all of you could get in on in too...

:hi:

I'll be fucking sixty-five, NOT fifty!

But thank you anyway, sweetie!

25. If it were up to me,
I'd make everyone here British citizens and import the NHS from the UK for everyone. Sucky waiting times and all that too.

Happy pre-birthday!

Mark.

29. Thank you, my dear cricket08!
It was pretty easy!

I did the whole thing over the phone...

I could have done it online, but for this, I wanted a person...

I was on hold for a while, but once I got through, it went well...

I will be getting some written verification in a couple of weeks, just to remind me what I actually did...
