I am not going to lie, I can be very disorganized at times and sometimes procrastinate on things that I shouldnt.

Here are two examples:

Home phone
Medical bill that was sent to me rather then my Health Insurance

Home phone: I am trying to save money by cutting out things I dont really need. While my "own" line was the thing to have in my youth. I realize now it is a waste of freakin money! I have two cell phones, one of which I do not pay for. The other I got just so I can speak to my girlfriend for extended periods of time (free mobile to mobile) I shall dub this the "Sam Phone".

Well wouldnt you know it, everytime I get home from work and get around to calling Verizon, it is after 5pm and they are closed….cant call on the weekend either….hmmm. Being I was home today I figured I would take care of it. I hate fighting a company to lessen the load of their crappy service. She wanted to know why….so I told her why and she was still confused? Haha…showed you sister.

Medical Bill: 30 days past due (ignore it isnt my problem)
60 days past due (what the…?)
90 days past due (still ignore it)
120 days past due (hmmm, maybe I should call?!?!)

So I call Empire BCBS and explain my situation. The nice lady told me to call the billing dept of the company that sent me the bill and explain to them they need to resubmit it to Empire. I do so, and give them my info. The lady on the phone cuts me an attitude and I ignore it….I say I keep getting the run around from my health provider. She calls them while I am on hold and comes back on and tells me that my card # is invalid and doesnt match what the hospital used. Confused I asked how can that be I read you the number off of my card, right in my hand. "Well I would need to see a copy of the card". Ok, no problem I will drive there right now….."No, we are closing now" Ok I will try to fax it over…

Now, I dont work in an office and barely have time to eat lunch. How am I going to fax this? The lazy mentality sets in….ahhh F*%k it.

I get one more notice and now I am pissed that I am even looking at the thing again. Good thing I was home today with a sore back (shoveling from this blizzard). I call up Empire and get a nice guy named Kevin. I explain my problem, explain what I was told the last time from his company and the other company and he was laughing pretty hard…."She said what about your member ID number?" "Can I have the billing number and your account number with them. I will clear this right up for you" He put me on hold for like 5 minutes and came back and said I shouldnt be hearing from them again. Kevin, you rock brother!

I don't know why I am so lazy….both of those calls took about 15 minutes….TOTAL!

Now if I can set up a notification schedule to pay my bills 2 weeks before they are due. I would be uber organized
