I don't know what I did, but clearly someone, somewhere is upset with me.

Last week, my bank account was overdrawn, but that was my own fault. I meant to cancel my guitar lessons (too expensive), and then promptly forgot, until the day the charge was made. Last week, I paid my credit card bill online. Or so I thought. I never went back and made sure the payment was posted, because that's the way I've paid literally every single month since I got the card, and have NEVER had a problem. Well, it didn't post. So now I have overdue AND overlimit fees. And the shit kicker on that one is that my limit was about to go up 250 bucks, but not now. Then, I checked out the status of this $60 rebate I had coming for some computer memory, and it said that the postmark didn't fall within the parameters of the promotion. Which means it basically sat around the post office for however many days until someone slapped a postmark on it and sent it out. Technically, I could've gone to the post office and specifically asked them to mail it that day, but I didn't see the need because I thought I had plenty of time.

So all these charges and lacks of moneys mean that Christmas is gonna suck for a lot of people usually on my list. I do apologize in advance. I'm planning on buying a car as soon as my tax return comes back next year, and I have school to think about, and yada yada yada. Speaking of school, I don't know if art is it. I want it to be it, but I'm just not feeling it. If I put half as much passion into anything else as I did playing videogames, my school life would be sweet. Which leads me to thinking that I should possibly consider building a career on that. But I'm afraid it would be like movies. I love watching movies, buying movies, talking about movies, but the thought of directing or writing or producing or editing a movie just seems horrifically boring and un-magical. I'm so desperate to figure out what I should do, that I'm actually thinking of taking a course called Career Planning or something. I don't know, I just know that I don't want to rise through the Walmart ranks, or get stuck doing something else that I hate. I'm thinking about taking a programming class next semester, just to see.

Blarg.
