Progress
During an odd quiet spell in the office today, I got a phone call from my former landlord’s bank. Turns out the whole “bounced check” thing was a bank error, not the fault of a deadbeat realty company, and they’re sending me a cashier’s check today for the original amount.
(When I was on the phone with the bank rep, and she said it was a bank error, all I could think of was that Community Chest card in Monopoly – you know, “Bank error in your favor, collect $200” – and how, once again, that godforsaken game had set me up for a life of broken promises.)
So that made me happy, and it’s quite possible that all my overdraft fees are going to be refunded, and I didn’t come home to a lake in my kitchen, and no one got laid off at work. Altogether, a much better day than yesterday. Plus, awesome weather! Although I did feel like a giant idiot because I wore my galoshes today (what?! the airguessers said there was a 70% chance of rain and thunderstorms!) and had to march around downtown with these things on my feet:
Hawt.
