I haven't driven for ten years now and it sucks. I am really honked because the state cut me off from Mediaid subsidized medical transportation again. The last time it happened, it took me five years to get it back. I'm pretty stubborn. The problem before the house is that the state computer says I still have a car and am evidently still driving it without a license, plates or insurance. My daughter totalled the car years ago and I went down to the court house and filled out the paperwork to officially total it out. It's still in the computer. I finally thought I got it straightened out and got reinstated six months ago. It's a real problem paying for taxis.

The big joke is that I received notice that I am in some sort of trouble for driving w/o auto ins. After receiving the letter, I called the idiot who sent it to me and told her my story. She said I needed to go in person to the bank which originally financed the car 19 years ago and get a certified copy of the title. I never got one when I paid the car off. That's 150 miles from here. Next I am supposed to go to the courthouse (40 miles away) and get a copy of the paperwork from when it was totalled. I did all of that before, twice, but the papers are in storage in my daugther's garage. My bad, I know. I told her I wouldn't do that again and they needed to send a wheelchair friendly vehicle when they picked me up and while they were at it, they better find a jail with a female medical unit because I don't have bail money. I have reached a point where I would love to go to court and talk to a judge.........after notifying the media.

Because this just seems wrong in the worst kind of way.

Thanks for the hug, Mark. Color me jaded but I hope I get arrested. This state is now notifying people that they have X number of days to get ins. or be arrested. I understand that problem. On the other hand, I have had so many Medicaid related issues that I would love to go before a judge. In one of my last jobs, my responsibilites included media co-ordination. Some of my contacts, both local and national are still working and have much more influential jobs. This could be interesting. I am tired of being jerked around on top of everything else. Cheers!!!!
