I got an email from “Yahoo!” about my Yahoo! ID. They supposedly wanted to make sure it’s registered to a real person, so they wanted me to click on a link. I’ve included a screen shot of the email. I didn’t click on the link — when you see the email, I’m sure you’ll understand why.

Today was the day that I had to go to the Social Security Office to apply for Disability. I was terrified, as I usually am. It went fairly smoothly, I had an appointment so I didn’t have to wait too long in the lobby. My appointment was for 9:00am, the time that the office opens, yet they wanted me to be there five minutes before my appointment time. So I ended up standing outside in the brisk autumn morning for a good five-to-eight minutes.
The thing that makes me nervous about these things the most is the questions they ask. I’m always worried that I’m not going to know the answer, and even if I do, I always second guess myself and that makes me very unsure the answer I gave was correct. All in all it took about an hour, just as they predicted. At the end I left and was still tense. I know my body’s going to be sore later from having the muscles in my legs, buttocks and arms tense during the whole thing. My mother went into the interview room with me and she kept looking over at me to make sure I wasn’t about to pass out, or to make sure my teeth weren’t clenched and grinding down stubs and raw nerves.
So, it’s over. Now I just have to wait for them to get the medical records from my doctors and any other place they think they need records from. And most likely I’ll be denied, so I need to find a lawyer to help me appeal. Anyone know of any good lawyers who don’t charge much, or do pro bono work? Let me know.

Ever find a song that seems to explain your current emotions and situation perfectly? I never thought of this song before, but after hearing it now, it just fits.
*Punishment* _by SHeDAISY_
I thought that was supposed to feel good
And if you were really mine
I guess it would
I didn’t fall in love
‘Cause it was the right thing to do
I just went ahead and fell for you
Oh, somewhere down along the line
I guess that love became a crime
This contradiction makes no sense
This is punishement
I feel like this is judgement day
I’ll raise my hand stand up and say
I don’t believe I’m innocent
This is punishment
Truth is your heart was never mine to take
Now I’m stuck in a feeling
That I’ll never shake
I prayed for it to go
God knows I want it to stay
But here I am loving you either way
Oh, somewhere down along the line
I guess that love became a crime
This contradiction makes no sense
This is punishement
I feel like this is judgement day
I’ll raise my hand stand up and say
I don’t believe I’m innocent
This is punishment
You’ll never know all the things I can’t say
And I’ll never know if it’s better this way
Oh, somewhere down along the line
I guess that love became a crime
This contradiction makes no sense
This is punishement
I feel like this is judgement day
I’ll raise my hand stand up and say
I don’t believe I’m innocent
This is punishment
Oh, somewhere down the line
I guess that love became a crime
This contradiction makes no sense
(This is punishment)
This is punishment
This is punishment
I feel like this is judgement day
I’ll raise my hand stand up and say
I don’t believe I’m innocent
(This is, this is, this is punishment)

Well, I went to the Social Security office today to apply for disability. I got there right after they opened, and there were already 10 people a head of me. It was a take-a-number kind of situation. After waiting about an hour for my number to be called I found out that it wasn’t as simple as I thought it would be. I had to make an appointment and come back later. So, now I have an appointment for the 21^st^ and I need to go back. This is just going to draw the anxiety out and won’t be fun at all.
While I was sitting, waiting for my number to be called, I was sitting next to two women who were also waiting. They were annoying the piss out of me. They had nothing but complaints about how slow the people at the window were helping people. And one woman kept answering her cell phone in the waiting area. Not even going out side to take the call. So I got to listen to at least 3 one-sided conversations. Learned that she’s got a restraining order on a previous boyfriend. She works at a post office, where her ex harrassed her. Her boss didn’t handle it well. Her ex complains that she turned the kids against him. Blah blah blah. And she wasn’t quiet about it either, she was laughing loudly and all. I just wanted to take her cell phone and shove it up her ass. Some people don’t have common sense. There have been studies that have found that cell phone conversations are more difficult to ignore than if the person was talking to someone in the same room — because you’re only hearing one side of the conversation.

I think tomorrow, Tuesday, is going to be the day that I actually go down to the Social Security Office and apply for disability. It’s been a long time coming, but since my mother is on vacation, she can go with me and help quell the anxiety a little. Though I’m still very nervous about going. I don’t know what to do when I walk in the door, who to talk to, or what to say to get the process started. Hell, I have a hard enough time just walking out of my house to check the mail during the day, interacting with people isn’t something I can do easily.
I would have gone today, but I totally forgot that it was Columbus Day meaning that most, if not all, Government offices are closed.

You are a Mentalist. Your magic depends on strength of will. You could be a memory-reading Mind-Mage, a lethally telekentic Force-Wizard, or a helpful Transmage for your abilities are a result of sheer stubborn will and intensely keen intellect. Your mind has been honed by learning and practice into the perfect tool for examining and dissecting reality and altering it to suit your needs. You are intelligent and scholarly with a tendency to distance yourself from others.
