Just got back from the bank. I got my new card activated, and I found out that nobody used my old card between the time I lost it, and when I cancelled it. Yay!

Yay! Scola is monied again!

Yay! msbelle's on a rampaging good mood.

Yay! Sophia is going to the doctor and then going home to rest.

I'm really sorry about your cat's freakout, Sophia.

We spent the weekend in Sacramento at Emmett's baseball tournament. He played his best baseball of the year: drilled a ground rule double, crushed a triple in the gap (that he went home on with an overthrow), made several brilliant plays in the field including ending inning catches in center, and throwing out a runner at the plate on a relay play, plus he pitched well - striking out the side to start off our first game.

We stayed with the best man from my wedding, Alex, his gf Kris and their daughter India. Emmett spent a lot of time playing with India, shooting at us with Nerf darts and swimming in the pool at a cookout we attended. We also got to see JZ's cousin Gia, and her daughter Nicole (the rather goth Michael Jackson impersonator). Despite their age difference (she's 18) Emmett and Nicole have totally bonded over their love of Tombstone and Invader Zim. We're going to have her come in and spend a weekend with us this summer.

Yay!

I, quite stupidly, left the card in the ATM.

This happened to me in Vancouver once. The person that next used the bank machine, took it home and tracked me down and called me. I did have to travel across the entire city to get it, and then endure a lecture about being more responsible with my bank card, but I guess it was nice of them.

Because books.

Yay, Tom! That's very good news.

Yay for Sophia going to the doctor!

That's amazing. S/he gets a good citizenship award despite the lecture.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay!

It's so annoying that you can't just get your card back from out of the machine. One time I put my school ID into an ATM, and couldn't get it back. WTF? It was right there in the machine! Someone opens the machine! They couldn't take out the ID and return it to me? Apparently not.

I could have got my card back from the machine, I just left it sitting there. I'm just so used to using machines where you swipe your card.
