Articles: The Good, the Bad, and the Bank |
Posted by

My bank just froze my atm card. They tell me that I can call back on Monday to get it "all sorted out". I can't call on Monday. I will be on a plane going to a much needed vacation.
Ok I would be on a plane except now i cant pay the taxi to take me there. I was going to use my atm card for that. Nor can I take out a little extra cash to convert when I get in to Charles de Galle.
Did i mention the roofers showing up at 6:45 this morning with buzzsaws? Or that out of nowhere my landlord is turning coy? How about all the spiders that rained down from the now nonexistant roof? I know I mentioned my allergies.
How I ask, trying not to scream while calling the help line for my bank, how can this all be happening at once? Why shut off my card of without telling me? What was the point?
Why I ask my landlord, while trying not to beat his head in, why didnt you bother to call me about the roofers? Why break the civil code? Why piss off the only tenet that has ever given you a good stock tip?
Why I ask myself, while trying not to faint, why do I have to be arachnophobic?

You got to love those landlords. Mine called in some guys to fix the boiler. Withoug informing me. So early one morning (OK, early for me!) this guy comes pounding on my door. I drag myself out of bed, of course wearing my rattiest jammies, only to be informed that the hot water was about to be shut off! I had to take a very quick, half-awake shower, all the time knowing that a couple of guys were just hanging around waiting for me to finish! And then, of course, I couldn't go back to sleep!
But things always go wrong just before a vacation! Last summer I was going to spend a week in Maine, but I only ended up spending 3 or 4 days, because my car died the week before, and I had to fight and fight to get a new one, and spend half of my vacation savings, too! And if you really want a horror story, then someday I'll tell you about this spring's vacation! Probably the worst week of my life and I'm not kidding!
I think there must be a bad fairy in charge of the starts of vacations. But they usually get driven away in a couple of days. At least, sometimes they do...
You can ship all your spiders to me! My mom has severe arachnophobia, and I trained myself to like spiders, just to be rebellious!
Good luck in Paris! I am sooooooo jealous!

My flight isnt until monday night. Im thinking of going to the airport tomorrow morning (Sunday) just to keep me away from the bad vacation fairy.
I think it is jsut fate's way of telling you that you REALLY need the vacation.
