I feel like such a dunce. My orientation meeting for library school is tonight, and I couldn't figure out the online campus map to see where was the best place to park, so I called my designated contact at school's admissions office. After asking her about parking, I then asked if there was an intracampus mailbox I could drop off some enrollment forms as well as my tuition check. She told me that they didn't take checks but that I could pay online instead.
Well, of course they do! It just never occurred to me since the last time I had to pay tuition was back in January 1988, when everything for registration was done in person at one location one or two days before classes started. I told her that it's going to take me a bit to get used to school being computerized.
What a cutie, sucking his thumb(s) like that!
I'm pretty sure I had to walk a check into the Bursar's office in 2002.
I'm so-so at board games and the like, but have been banned for life from playing Pictionary by my HS circle of friends. Who would have guessed that drawing illustrations and symbolic icons for children's textbooks since 1987 would give you a leg up at that game?

My university just started taking on-line payments this year. And I think they stopped taking mastercard and only take visa. And they charge a pretty hefty fee to use a credit card. It is very strange, but the objective is to discourage people from paying with credit cards. They can do a direct transfer from a bank account, though.
We still can't take them for the classes I process- I have to send them an email to tell them to call me and give me their card number. I could totally be running a scam!
The universities here still take cheques (although not credit cards, as of this year).

It was initially a problem nursing, as he would stuff his fist in his mouth instead of latching on. However, he caught on quite rapidly and seems to know which one to go for when offered the choice between his fist and a nipple.
We were so bored in the summers growing up that Nutty and I taught ourselves to play canasta, which is a total old-lady card game.
Oh, I did that with a high school friend one summer! We came across the rules in Hoyle or some such and decided to start playing. 'Twas pretty fun, as I recall, though I would have to start from scratch to learn how to play again, now.
I would totally play online canasta with you people!!!
I really miss playing games.
Yeah, they were also charging an extra fee for credit card payments and obviously preferred online checks instead.
I learned to play euchre and bridge in college. Made for a lot of dirty-monded puns, somehow.
Cutie-pie Simon!
