Ok holy fucking shit was this wrong.

I thought it was 9600 because that's what was on the bill sent to my house... well not a bill, a statement from the hospital since they are waiting on tricare to pay it.

Logged into the system to see all the claims, there are 30 claims so far for my hospitalization. I do not recognize 90% of the doctors on the list, I'm sure they stuck their head in the room while i was passed out and charged 500 bucks for their efforts.

Total charged so far:
$53,160.60
Total paid by Tricare: $11,019.00

1 claim was denied for some lab ($243 charge), 2 charges still being processed, the $9600 for the ICU stay and $22k for the helicopter ride (medevac).

For all the other charges whatever it is Tricare I guess negotiates because they only pay 1/3 whatever the bill is and they just accept that.

Only part I recall from my initial seizure is getting clarity on what 'get you to Vegas' meant. If they thought it was bad enough I needed a helo I was going to pass. If I was that bad off I didn't want to pass the cost to my wife. Healthcare in this country is ridiculous.

in 1997, for under $800, i got a 1 hour ride in a tiny med jet. friend had a heart attack in 2015, a 20 min helicopter trip was $25k

Client brings in a box of fancy cookies, each one individually wrapped with semi-transparent wax paper type shit. All cookies the same, all look like chocolate chip, but no label or description anywhere and just cloudy enough to not be sure. Think to myself, they have to be chocolate chip, right? No one buys an entire box of fucking raisin, right?

Raisin. Fuck you, motherfucker!

Like sugar raisin, or oatmeal raisin?

If the latter they are the best.... but just because i like the oatmeal part more than any other cookie.

You realize you can make oatmeal cookies with things other than raisins, right? I'll do cranberry and nuts, chocolate chip, etc

Not oatmeal. I guess sugar then? Looked exactly like chocolate chip, but with fucking raisins.

I love oatmeal cookies, just not with fucking raisins in them. I won't eat them with raisins. A coworker made me oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for my birthday one year because she knew I loved them but no one ever makes/sells them.

I was arguing with someone at work that thinks raisins are awesome just a bit ago. My argument is, who looked at a nice, juicy, succulent grape, and decided nah, I'd rather dry it out and make it tough and chewy before I eat it? Sure, maybe back in the olden days when shit went bad and you either preserved it somehow or it rotted, I'll allow that. But today? Get the fuck outta here!

The one exception for me is Raisinettes. They wouldn't be the same in grape form, and it works for me anyway. Everywhere else raisins are 100% a trap. (mayyyybe Oatmeal Raisin cookies are good, but throw enough sugar at anything....)

Raisins are great. Raisin hating is a bandwagon that for some reason the picky kids in my generation and later all jumped on.

Raisins are especially great in oatmeal cookies, where they should be considered the default. Like if you make an oatmeal cookie without them you should probably call it something else to avoid confusion.

Many people have a strange aversion to raisins. And pineapple.

Behold, the sum of all their fears:

I like most dried fruit, prefer raisins as part of a dish or item. I can eat a fuck ton of dried mango, apricot, pear, peach, dates. I always pay for a couple hours later, but give it a month or 2 and I’ll be going down that aisle in Costco staring down whatever they have at the time.

While I do agree oatmeal cookies are second best (Behind chocolate chip) fuck putting raisins in them, just get the frosted one

Thats like making chocolate chip cookies but skipping the chocolate chips

Just like seafood aversion, onion aversion or spicy food aversion, raisin aversion is a condition that people should deal with as a sort of mental pathology. A weakness to be overcome. Like the grown ass man I once knew who literally could only eat chicken strips or chicken nuggets, no other kind of meat. A childhood thing that was never overcome.

Overcome it. Embrace the raisin.

Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are legit. But that just makes the oatmeal raisin cookies piss me off more.
