Have you ever gotten a dental statement as to how much something was, and had your eyes suddenly bug out like you were in a Saturday morning cartoon? I just got a statement from my insurance company stating that the crowns I got are not covered by my policy. They were $990.00 each!!
So after a moment of panic, I called my mom to get advice. She recommended getting the details about my policy and finding out the why. Also, she said sometimes it takes more than one time submitting for a a company to pay. This sounds like a pretty inefficient way to run a company, is it really true?
So now I have what amounts to car payments again, only it's the valuables in my mouth. Sigh. Does grasping at money, trying to hold on to money, make the universal karmic energy so that you keep losing more money? Cause right about now it sure feels like it.
Blah.

OMG, you said a mouthful!
Good lord. I know you really don't like the dentist and I hope this doesn't deter your future visits! I had the same experience when I went to get my wisdom teeth removed. I didn't realize insurance wouldn't cover all of it (we were on the most expensive plan because we anticipated this in advance and thought the cost would go waaaay down). We still had a bill of about $800 after insurance, which had to be paid upfront, and I remember handing over my credit card, just praying there was room on it.
