    Minutiae    May 2011  

    Three months ago, an automatic domain name payment didn't process because of some silly PayPal merchant agreement limit thinger. I get two identical debt collection letters today stating that I owe 1&1 a grand total of...$18.95. The payment that didn't transfer originally was $8.99. WTF? Could you not give me a call earlier and say 'Hey! Update your PayPal account!' ?

    What's really lame is that, for as small as that debt is, I really can't afford any more nasty surprises like that. And I have heard nothing but bad things about NCO Financial Systems. So now I have to deal with that on top of reading 200 pages of a book tonight. :(

    Naturally, as soon as I was ready to burst into tears over this mess, my boyfriend sneaks upstairs with a tall glass of fruit juice and his Crystal Head Vodka, signed by Dan Akroyd, which he has been saving to crack open (no pun intended) until after he sold his house. And he DUMPS the vodka into the drink.

    Now I feel better. :D

    The great thing is that he didn't even realize I was upset, since I had just discovered all that stuff! He happened to show up at the right moment, in typical fashion. The minute I feel overwhelmed he appears out of the blue with a drink and reassuring words. Love him.

    He's "moved in," meaning he has unpacked some of his clothes, computers, and guitar/piano, and everything else is packed up in the garage for the next moving day. We've looked at three places and have two more tomorrow. Here's to hoping he finds the right place soon!!
