Some random number called me today and didn't leave a message, whatever.

like 30 minutes later, Heather yells "OMG LANDMARK IS CALLING ME!" (her work phone). It clicked, and I asked the number and YES, that was Landmark that called me. FUCK! What the hell are they doing!!!!! Go away!!

Also, was doing some paperwork for egg donation today, and uhh, it said something about $4000, so I emailed and asked what that was... they said what I'd be receiving. I emailed saying like what, says on the website 5k and my friends got 5k. They said the parents are on a reduced fee program and that I'd be getting $4000, but if I needed $5000 (worded it diff) that they will do it. I told her I'd think about it and I was expecting $5000 so I'd contact them tomorrow. Then she emailed me saying again about if I needed $5000 they do it, then another email an hour later saying let her know if the new fee is okay and she will send me the new paperwork. So I asked mom and like 10 other people, some said do $4500, some said no way $5000. Someone said they shouldn't put a price on their child, another said compromise in the middle, some said that's not fair that you should get reduced just because they can't/maybe can't afford it and they should cut costs somewhere else and that I am doing them a favor anyways to get something close to their own child. I felt bad just because I know they've spent thousands on other ways and whatever else, but still, that isn't fair to me taking a pay cut essentially just because someone chose me who couldn't afford it all, AND they didn't even tell me in the first place, they just had it on the paperwork, and if I had not asked, I'd be getting $4000 and not know it til the end. Well I replied saying I'd like to stick to the $5000 fee, blah blah, I hope the parents are still interested because I want to do this for them, it was a hard decision, on and on. She emailed me back saying like it was a heart warming email or something.

I don't feel as bad now, because maybe the company is picking up the tab. I also said if other pay arrangements need to be made, that is fine, like if they can't pay it all up front... or whatever.

So, that is my drama for the day.
