I think I'm getting $2.50 and a box of Krispy Kremes, Aimee.

Ooh! I spent the day in Sydney rocking hard at a work seminar. People either side of me on the plane home had loaded up with the Krispy Kremes.

ION, I like the Battlestar Galactica theme music.

I. Am. Screwed.

I just checked my student financial account to see if my excess check had been cut yet.

It has. It's for $300, when it's supposed to be for $1300. Why? Because Continuing Ed did not apply the Purchase Order from Mass Rehab to my account, so the class I'm taking with Continuing Ed got taken out of my loan money.

I'm sure I can get it fixed with a lot of yelling at the right people, but that means I'm not getting that check this week like I was counting on.

Why can't this stuff be easy and work the way it's supposed to???? I do my part, and they still fuck it up.

Oh, crap vw. Good luck with this.

Ditto askye. Courage, love.

Yay Hec!

Yay meara, with the date-having!

...and now I want Krispy Kremes. Damn you, wee billy!

shakes tiny fist

I like the BSG music too. And I had a total geekgasm when they played the themetune from the original show at the big "Happy Retirement!" bash for Adama in the Miniseries. Total. Geekgasm. But I'm glad we've got the new music instead.

blushes

I seem to have developed a stammer.

SA and brenda - I hope your evening is showing massive improvement.

Well, I slept for twelve hours, so that was something.

Fay! Hello!

vw! That sucks! And it's happened to me before! I hope it gets resolved.

Now I want Krispy Kremes.

Well.

I wouldn't have thought anything could make me look forward to shelling out over a grand to have a root canal later this week: last night's godawful tooth pain that nothing seemed to dent did the trick. Up all night, rotating between Advil, aspirin, and Tylenol 3s, none of which did a god damn thing. I think I finally slept about 5 or so, but I'm up again now.

Gronk.

Oh, Brenda. You beat me in the "oh my god my day sucked balls" game.

This is from yesterday, but Andi, I loved your Supercat picture! How did you ever get him to do that. The other ones in the background looks sad - like why doesn't he have super powers?

vw, I'm sorry to hear abotu the check. That sort of stuff is so stressful. Last year, my loan money got lost before it got to the University. Thankfully, the UNC law school is small and they said I could stay in class while they worked it out. And I didn't need the money to live. But it was still very stressful. I can only imagine how much worse you must be feeling.

{{{brenda}}} That absolutely sucks! I'm so sorry.

SA, I'm glad you got some good sleep.

I am suddenly very zen about the money. It'll work out. I'll get it one way or another. I may have to snap some necks in the process, but it'll get figured out. Some things (like the check to my dad) will have to wait a little longer to be cashed. Oh, well. He'll live. I just...I had a schedule of when things were going to get paid, and I got panicky 'cause I was getting off schedule. But, really...when are we completely on schedule with money things?

I SO understand the schedule thing. So many times, Joe will ask me to do something. My immediate reaction is almost always "no" because it doesn't fit into my schedule. Once I've thought about it for a bit, though, and had a chance to rearrange my schedule, it's okay.

ION, my living room is a total mess. Ellie threw up on the couch last night so the cushions and pillows are everywhere. I suppose I should straighten it up, but I don't feel like dealing with it yet.
