I am tired physically, tired mentally, tired emotionally, and tired of writing about friggin' energy or education (as I completely lack one and am bombing the other). Ergo, I am not going to analyze another one of my sources or anything like that (no rhetorical analysis right now). I don't know where I want to start on my next paper. I guess one issue I could write about "waiting periods" some insurance plans make you go through. What I mean is that if you have a preexisting condition (like epilepsy or mutant-third-eye-in-the-back-of-your-head syndrome) and you take medication for said condition, you have to wait anywhere from 30 to 90 days before the insurance plan will pay for that medication. I know they have reasons for it, though I don't know too well what they are. I, for example, have epilepsy. I take this one medicine twice a day which makes me completely normal (if you could call me "normal" in the first place). However, those pills without insurance cost $5.00 a piece (at least that was the price four years ago; who knows about now). Fortunately my insurance plan through work is one of the seemingly few that do not require that waiting period. That is really really good for me, since I can't afford to go a certain period of time before getting my medicine. I know that a lot of other insurance plans have that waiting period because I looked at many plans before I got my current job. In fact, that insurance is really my main motivation for staying at that job. Anyway, I can read about the justification insurance companies make when requiring this period, I can read about the counter arguments by insurance companies which do NOT require that period, etc. We'll see what I can rustle up.

Ok i totally agree with you. I hated both of these topics and the next one does not look much better. I am really not excited about the next paper. I am also very burnt out because the last papers took so much out of me that i have no energy to write this next paper. Good luck.
