So that stupid credit card thing T decided we should get at the shop seems to not be working out so well. They seem to be over charging and we have over 4 years left on the lease. And no money to do anything with and things are tight. And it sucks.

Oh internets I've missed you. But I have my monies back. Just went to the bank to deposit last weeks paycheck and the balance is right where it should be. Makes me feel much better.

Spent a chunk of time at the bank on Tue. filling out paper work to get my new debit card issue and writing out letters stating what companies the charges where made to and on what card number and the day and that I didn't authorize them.

Mountain Dew throwback is awesome. I vow to never drink the other stuff again...well until I run out and go back to mooching the other stuff from the store.

In other news I drove all the way to work today to get my paycheck only to find out there were showing up in another hour. So no paycheck cause I'm not making another trip up. Next week when I go back to work I'll just have two paychecks waiting for me.

Play in a draft tournament last night. Unsurprisingly came in last. Ask T. to make me a new deck based on the deck I drafted. Yeah, haven't played it yet but I can tell it is absolutely nothing like the one I started with. He kept 7 cards, thats it, and changed the color combo completely. Mostly because he got different colors when he got my picks from the rares and mythic cards at the end. I sort of wish he'd just left the colors I had, because I really liked my deal 5 damage to all opponents card, it was a good finishing move. Now I don't think I have a finishing move, thus leaving me with no finishing move making it pretty as worthless as my old deck. Ugh. Although he claims its not that bad because he played it against his cruel control deck with is a really good deck I guess, and it nearly beat it. Which basically means I'll still just lose against him every time I play just like now which frankly just gets boring after about 3 games. / geek

Why did I buy a chinchilla? Not that I don't really like Lemur, but still. I would have been fine if the roommate hadn't been with me, or if she hadn't been taking forever to decided if she wanted to buy a fish or not.

Just repeat after me, your bills are paid for the month, you'll be fine.

Ugh I got like no sleep last night. I slept from 1 to 2. And um....6:30 to 7 and like 7:10 until 7:30 when my alarm went off. Today is going to be a really long day isn't it?

Well crap. I really wanted to go watch Dad race this weekend. But the pit pass is $40. Combine that with the cost of gas, even for my car, for driving to Wiscasset and back it's just more than I can justify. I don't even dare buy more groceries right now.

Ugh, this sucks.

It's sunny, and warm, again, for two whole days in a row. \0/

In other news my last paycheck from VIP was smaller than I thought it would be. Meaning it's not actually enough to cover my next car payment. Crap.

Also the bug bite on my arm, that was just a red spot yesterday. Is now an itchy swollen red dot with like pink all round it, so sort of welt like. Yes let me prove how allergic I am to everything. The bite on my hip while not itchy is swollen, plus much larger like the bug bit me more than once. Plus just in general more pink around it than the itchy one which is just faintly pink. Meh.

My neck has turned a lovely purple red in places. I hates sunburns so much.

In boy news it's really to bad that I'm not interested in the hub driver guy. He called to let me know his plane had landed safely (he's going to a friends graduation at the moment) and then he called me again to say he made it to Virgina because he landed somewhere else and had to drive. Which is you know really nice of him, but at the same time I don't really care. I mean yeah good for not dying but still don't need to let me know every time you successfully don't die doing something plenty of people don't die doing everyday.

edit: what gives today then win is the fact the general store had Moxie. I love Moxie. Which is a true way to tell how Maine someone is, they a) know what Moxie is and b) love it.

Today work was a lot of work. I had to scan in and check off two days worth of freight. The guys did most of the out front freight, I did almost all of the hard parts myself. I scrapped the skin off one knuckle and got several scraps on my arm and bruised my wrist. But on the plus side the hub driver gave me some Jelly Belly jelly beans. The roommate says I should just ask the guy out already. I'm considering it.

I celebrated today by wearing my love hurts shirt all day, even at work, it was just under my VIP shirt. My State refund is in so woot, I have money again, plus a pay check that will actually cover my car payment. And Dee paid me back for her HCT ticket so I used the money to buy groceries.

The one way work was funny was that it was me and three managers on the counter all day. That and all three managers kept talking about how they still had to get their wives something for v-day. I was amused by this.

Someday I will own a car I can change the wipers on myself. Today is not that day. The directions seem simple, push the button, pull the wiper assembly out.

Yeah right, I tried that it didn't work. Although trying to do this when it's so cold out my figures are going numb probably doesn't help. I need a heated garage to work in.

At least the registration was less than I thought, and by less I mean still over $300. And I broke my nails trying to peal last years stickers off the plates. I miss having a car I registered in the summer, the stickers peal off much better when they aren't cold and brittle.

And in the even more money I shouldn't have spent category I bought Shadow of the Colossus and a 64 mb memory card off my brother. For a grand total of $10.

The whole point of my visit was to get my hair trimmed though. Which I did. I have split ends and that is not cool. Although mom may be right and part of the problem may be my shampoo and conditioner. Which is sort of expensive and yet makes my hair neither smooth nor sleek. But it is soft. And full of split ends. Next week I may invest in new shampoo and see if that helps.

Thanks to my nose being really stuffy lately I had a really hard time falling asleep last night. And when I finally did I dreamed about getting beat up. Thus causing my nose to be messed up so I had a harf time breathing through it. And for some reason it was christmas only no one bought me anything.

My brain is on crack and last night it wasn't the good kind.

In better news I found the missing $20. I dropped it in the den when I was heading out to the living room to pay the roommate. Crisis averted.
