That feeling just before you fall.

Contact with the IPs has been almost nonexistent in the last two months. I (naively?) assumed it was because of the holidays and every one was just busy. I know I was and I was secretly happy to have the holidays without doing the shots. Martini's with the inlaws just wouldn't have been the same.

Anyhoo... two weeks ago, DH got a bill in the mail. Not just a bill... a collection notice. It was from the blood work for his STD testing. I forwarded the bill to L and S at least a month prior and didn't for the least bit think they wouldn't take care of it. My bill has yet to be received... maybe they were waiting on it??

So, I emailed L to check and ask 'what up' with the bill. DH's crapometer was starting to ping and I was holding out hope that it just slipped their mind in the chaos of a busy month. I got an email back saying she'd been out of town but would get back Sunday (laaaast Sunday). Her mother was sick. I told her that I would be off work all this past week but would have access to cell and email. I haven't received another reply. No call, no return calls and no further contact. WTH?

She's got another day or two to respond to my email from this morning (hey - what's going on - what's up with this bill, do i need to pay it???) or "else". It's obvious, even to me, that this is the end. I cannot move forward with IPs that can't take care of a simple inexpensive bill (<$150) before it hits collections. That, and I'm not given the courtesy of a BS excuse or anything. I'm being ignored for whatever reason. =/


Short of a miracle explanation at the 11th hour (coma?), I'll be looking for new IPs in the next few weeks.
