Dear Bank of America Phone System ( Read more... )

I passed my LMHC exam! The National Clinical Mental Health Counselor Examination (NCMHCE) last Friday! This means I'm one step closer to getting my license! I have all the hours I need, but I need to get my old boss's supervisor to sign off on them because she has a license and he doesn't. If she signs off then I can apply for my license! Yay ( Read more... )

I stayed up way too late last night watching 'Dirty Money' an overly scandalous expose on high-end escorts. Why? because I finally have more than 6 channels again ( Read more... )

I came home after a long and trying day, and after the first trip to the gym in 6 weeks, to find three pieces of mail: one from the University of Rochester, begging for money, one from my physical therapist's billing department saying "pay us or we send you to collections" and one from my bank telling me that I'm $244 overdrawn ( Read more... )

I'm supposed to be picking up a rental car right now to drive to Niskayuna to see Travis and co. for Americade. But I'm not. Why? Because Bank of America doesn't post payments until Midnight, meaning that the payments that I set up for today won't post until midnight tonight, meaning that I have $0 credit available meaning that I can't have a $300 ( Read more... )

I got a thingy in the mail from one of my loan companies. They're offering consolidation. For private loans. Considering that one of my other companies is no longer doing consolidation at all, I jumped at the chance. I have the option of variable rates, but honestly, I just want to lock them down and keep them low. I have one variable loan that's ( Read more... )

So to add to the "seriously guys? WTF?" that has been my life: I'm broke again. My one client that I had one session with, and who I was supposed to be seeing weekly is on vacation until september 1. She hasn't shown up since our first session anyway. So this means I have precisely ZERO clients, and only two team meetings to help make up the ( Read more... )

Got my Bush Bribe (stimulus payment) yesterday.
Got my new checks today...
Paid all 3 student loan bills and one of my credit cards... bye bye stimulus payment. Actually, one of my SallieMae loans in and of itself is $330/mo. Ewww.

And I found out that because of fedaral law, they are no longer consolidating anyone's student loans. Übersuckage.

My room is a wreck, and I don't ever seem to get to the bottom of it. I'm trying to do art on my worktable, but it's so full of computer stuff that I have precisely 2 square feet of workspace, part of which is filled by my fan, because even with the AC it's bloody hot in here. My right finger hurts a lot, I think I may have broken it. I'm nauseous ( Read more... )

The Jetta is officially dead. I drove from MA to Maine and then from Maine back to NH for Memorial Day and then to hang out at the house for a day or so, go to jujitsu and then drive home. I was driving down the driveway to my parents' house when I heard a pop, and what sounded like plastic dragging on the ground. I thought at first that it was ( Read more... )
