Ugh. I've got a checking account that I've only been using online, that I want to start using as my regular account. I have no idea where my ATM card is, and I don't know the PIN. I want to get a new card, find out the PIN, change the address on the account, and order new checks with the new address. This is going to require a lot of work, isn't it?

OK, I found an expired ATM card and a form with the PIN. I managed to change the address online, but now it won't let me do anything else online. Maybe this is progress?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I should really shower and dress so I can go do my errands...

Nice that Darth was the next table over!
Also, the zombie shoes are so not me but I can see where they would be fun.
I have decided that I am very very tired this morning. Yesterday I fought several bad dizzies, and slept early, but I think I've mostly recovered. I hope.
In other news, brunch with friends as a bday celebration today! woot!

You made water 'splode?
But then I fixed it! With water.
You're like an intern evil scientist. "Let her work with water, what harm could she do?"

I think everyone married wishes they weren't married sometimes, Nora. I hope you feel better sooner than later...and hey, I'll come down and go on a depraved NOLA bender with you as soon as I have the extra $$$!
Ah....a little more coffee, and off to sweltering garage sale, day II.

There's no "wrong thread" for depraved NOLA benders!

Oof. I am definitely getting a GPS when I get a car.
I just took a Zipcar to bring a bunch of stuff to electronics recycling. I had directions there and back printed out from Google Maps. Getting there, I took two wrong turns, but corrected them easily. (This is what's nice about grid streets that are numbered and lettered in order -- you can always look at a street sign and know where you are.) Getting back, though, the street that Google Maps wanted me to take didn't seem to exist, and it was too far outside the grid system for me to be able to use that to navigate. So I drove around for while -- ended up taking Michigan Ave. through Catholic University at least three times -- before I finally found Rhode Island Ave., which I knew would take me almost home. Went the wrong direction on Rhode Island the first time, but realized that by watching the building numbers, and turned around.
I had planned to stop at Soul Vegetarian for lunch, since it's sort of in the neighborhood, and I want to go there once more before leaving DC, but I wasn't quite sure enough of where I was to try to find it, so I just came home.
