I got some weird news at work today - part of the recent porkulus bill had a new law that makes it such that my company has to pay 65% of my exW's health care insurance. Even though we were divorced back on Dec 8, it is retroactive going back to Oct for people that were insured through my company. I guess COBRA now has some fangs and venom.

I try to look on the bright side of things - that means if she ever complains about having to share some of the kids expenses, I can point out that she has been freed up of about $300 a month in health care she was previously paying for.
