My university alumni association: deadnames me again

It's not like I was going to donate anyway, but ffs.

I was able to update my transcripts with the fucking university registrar, but the alumni association can't get their shit together and it's infuriating.

Like, I get mail fairly regularly with my deadname, most often from a small handful of old financial accounts that are just not worth updating. But I know I could update it with Giant Bank if I really cared, I just don't particularly.

But the alumni association is so obnoxiously insistent on keeping everything *else* about me updated, tracks me down when I move, etc. You'd think they'd *want* to update my name!

I swear one of these days I'm going to write them into my will with a provision that they only get my $10 if they no longer have deadname on their rolls. It won't accomplish anything, but I think about it anyway.

In other news ( health, boring )

Work has been kicking my ass but they've actually *hired* replacements for the people that left, and one of them is coming from another department where he's about half-trained already, *and* I know our job duties shift in first quarter of next year is like 95% actually going to happen, so I feel like I can almost see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Which is good because I'm way too busy to job hunt at the moment, lol. Work, still taking my accounting classes, vaguely hoping to actually get my bookkeeping etc business off the ground, parenting (Bug has added roller derby to her list of activities, so that's Sunday afternoons gone), plus writing (I'd been hoping to work on something original this month but that's... not been happening) and I've come back around to ficbinding.

Typeset is kicking my ass a bit right now, need to dig out the links I saved about that last time I was interested in ficbinding. I'm hoping to figure this out in time to surprise a fandom friend of mine during the holidays, but I'd rather do it right than rush it, too.
