OH DEAR! Please don't let me forget to put my rent check in the mail!
Dude, I did the same thing today. I was like OH FUCK. I got it in before the mail was picked up today, so I hope it gets there in time. Yours too.
Mal: How come you didn't turn on me, Jayne? Jayne: Money wasn't good enough. Mal: What happens when it is? Jayne: Well... that'll be an interesting day.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Oh, I saw that link. Thanks, sarameg. Or should I call you Sam?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Whew! I was looking at next month's meeting planner.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hi! and, um, what did Cheney do this time?
At the Auschwitz memorial ceremony, everyone else had the respect to wear black overcoat, nice shoes, and formal black hat. He had hiking boots, parka, and knit hat. The parka had his name embroidered on it. The knit hat had a logo. Not a major anything, but not really respectful.

So wait, people have to have the check ARRIVE on the first of the month? My deal is either hand deliver (which I do) or it has to be postmarked the day of.

Phbbt, Burrell. I'll warn you, I don't respond to Sam. For a while, not to Sara, either, but that's a different problem.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So wait, people have to have the check ARRIVE on the first of the month?
They never prorated my first month, or anything. So my rent is due the 13th. If I mail it by the 13th, it's a very on the ball month. Usually I mail it around the 15th. Three times in two years I've been called on that -- but I feel no guilt because I once overpaid my rent by $300, and they didn't say a word about it.
Where's UPS? I'm here, dammit, waiting for the cable guy, and I swear the package is to be delivered today. Don't let this drag out until Monday, when I'll not be home so early...

Yep. Or I can hand-deliver.

ita, that like here. Though I think there is a 3 day grace period on top of the postmark/deliver deal. I've never run into it, since I'm kinda of anal about paying my bills, so the latest it'll be is after hours on the first or the first working day after (no staff in rental office on weekends.)

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
I just drop my rent off in the drop box outside of their offices, a few blocks down the street from my building. The technical due date is the first, but as long as you get it in by the end of business on the 5th, they're cool with it. After that, though, you get nailed with a $25 fee.
