you mean slippers?

slippers? house shoes?

I had only heard "slippers" until a friend called them "house shoes."

But I heard a 3rd term today that I had never heard before:

"room shoes"

Slippers! Or, if you were my awesome MiL, scuffs.

Way to gross that out, ita! No, they immediately REMIND ME of Karin.

-t, even when my loan switched hands (twice between 2009 and pre-refi) they didn't fuck up the escrow or payment method, nor charge a fee. I'd google class actions regarding servicer, cause that just doesn't sound right. When my mortgage changed hands, Wells remained the servicer. And while I've had NO issues with my brokers and WF, I do know there are suits against them. I get postcards about it all the time. I look and it doesn't apply to me.

Speaking of class actions, I received notice that I was eligible for a settlement with Turbo Tax re: fees for federal refund processing. It was an email out of the blue, but others may have a stake in this.

I love vinegar. When I was a kid, I would drink it. Not a lot but a swallow or two.

I am also August birthday! However, I find it hard to fathom it IS August.

IIRC from when I first had this servicer (when they bought the loan from BoA), I'll be able to get the payment in during the "grace period" to avoid the fee. And really, it's $12, it's hardly worth complaining about, but THAT WON'T STOP ME. I know I called customer service last time about the whole not all my records being available thing and they just asked me to be patient and eventually they were there and correct, but it's annoying. I don't think the escrow is fucked up, I just can't see it yet

And I googled for class action lawsuits last time, and there were some but they don't apply to me, supposedly these guys are reformed.

I go back to work in a few days. ARGH.

August does make me sad for my teacher friends having to go back to work.

Actually, this is the third August in a row where I'll be working All The Time. I'm excited for September to get here so I can have my vacation time. (Pacific Northwest WOOT!)

I need to get on a different project next year where the big requirements deadline isn't the beginning of September.

Somehow, oops, my payment to my car insurance company bounced when I was on vacation, and I didn't see it. Two weeks ago, and I just today got a notice about it from Allstate. Good for me that I saw it when I came home and paid it immediately, so I wasn't not-covered during the time it took them to notify me.

Bad for me, they've informed me that since this has happened twice now (in four years), from now on they will only accept payments as money orders or cashier's checks.

Oh. So to make sure you get paid, now I have to go to the bank or post office and then either drive it to your office or put it in an envelope with a stamp. Perhaps you don't understand why I use online bill pay. If that's the only way you'll let me pay you, then pretty soon you're not getting paid, because I WILL FORGET.

So, Allstate, because you have a hard-line no-tolerance no-resubmit-for-payment policy for denied payments (totally your right, of course), I now have to switch to a different insurance carrier. I've been with Allstate for 17 years. Knowing what a flake I am, I cannot believe this has never happened before. Thus, I suspect this policy is not Allstate's, but your office's. So I'm calling Geico in the morning. I don't want to, but I will never be able to remember to make physical payments to your office on time.

Okay, I'm done. I needed to bitch about that.
