Two chores today -- first, taking my beloved Soul to the Concord Kia dealership for her slightly overdue minor-maintenance. Yes, there's a nail in the left front tire, and they fix that, so I happily drive back to Castro Valley, for my second chore, depositing my last paycheck to my bank account.

Said paycheck seems to be in my blue backpack, which I had left at the dealership waiting room.

Okay, second time I drive from Concord to Castro Valley, and bring the @#$^@#@! debit card into the bank, & ask them to transfer the contents into my checking account. The teller runs the card, and it comes back DECLINED. "Sorry," she says, "we can't even try again for another 24 hours."

Outwardly my normal smiling, gentle self, I go back to my car & call the debit card company's customer service line. It's 2AM in Bangalore but the young lady, whose fake WASPy name I don't recall, seems alert enough. Apparently the card was declined because, instead of a cash transfer, the teller had done a cash advance, and they have a limit on cash advances, well less than the paycheck value.

Tomorrow, three chores!

Can't get too mad about the backpack, that was my fault. The froo-frah at the bank, I blame on many, many people. And then I do a little dance!

Do a little dance, Make a little love, Get down tonight!!! :)

Or you could do what I did with Wells Fargo almost two years ago. Close all of the accounts and move to a credit union:)
