So a week has gone by since I've checked out the effect of my kitchen floor breaking my fall. ( See previous post.) In the mail I finally recieve a bill: $4,399.50!  OMFG!  I tell the High Priestess she should let me die next instead of dialing 911.  Seriously, just elevate my legs, keep me from swallowing my tongue, and force me to drink 2 bottle of water and I'll pay you $100.   I could buy a fully loaded Mac Book Air 13" with all the bells and whistles for $1849!  The Emergency Room alone was $2,559.15!  Who gets that fifteen cents at the end of the bill anyway?  Is that Tax?  Or has the medical community found that people do not believe their numbers when they end in whole dollar amount.

Granted, I have health insurance.  The same day the bill came I received a letter from Blue Cross asking if this was work related or not.  Something has to be up if two Mega corps can contact me on the same day.  It will be just a matter of time to see what I really have to pay.  My deductible is already cover since have my blow hole in the back of my neck sealed.  That was early this year when I spend the month of January pretending to be a Blue Whale.

It might get to the point where people just work a job just for the health care benefits.

New Series: What if I Won the Lottery?

I'd like to start a new series of post. All of theses would be based on winning a large sum of cash and what I would do with it. I'm going to try something different than pay some bills, buy a new car, and get a new house. I think everyone would do that, but what happens when you get past the 10 million dollar mark? or 50 million? or 100 million?

That's what I'm going to do here. My road map for spending the mega millions of dollars I would surely win, if I started playing the lottery. I do have some rules. One, I'll assume the government will take half in taxes. Two, I'm going to start small and work my way up to the megabucks. Three, I'm going to try and spend it all and not just stick it in a bank. I can invest it however. Four, I going to try to do a reasonable job of researching my purchases. Five, the list is progressive. If I buy one thing in a post the next post assumes I buy the same thing plus something.

For example, If I were to win $10, I would buy: A Mocha latte $3.50, Banana-Nut muffin $1.50, One Comic Book $4.00, and a bagel $1.00. If I were to win $20, I'd buy everything I would have bought with the ten dollars, plus a manga book ($11.00) and skip the bagel (-$1.00).

I will not bore you with number less than a million dollars, because we can just assume I blow it on fast cars, older whiskey, lap dances, and detoxing bills.

Look for this starting in January.
