Mo' money, mo' problems

AKA the more money I need, the more problems I have

So, in order to release some stress and have clean sheets and clothes, I attempted to do laundry. I was glad I put $10 on my card cause I didn't really feel like lugging a basket FULL of laundry, detergent, and a roll of quarters down there. And what do I see when I get there? A freaking Post-It (don't sue me, 3M) note that said, "Out of order, thank you". I felt like scribbling out 'thank' and writing 'screw' above it. Why don't they warn people about stuff like that?! I haven't done laundry since my grandma died, like I'm "up on the times" about the laundry room. I could have easily gotten a roll of quarters and just done laundry the hard way. I don't have that much money to spend anyway! After I put money on my card, I used a lot of my quarters because I didn't think I needed them. I can't go home because, well, I don't have a functional car right now. My family is coming back home this weekend, but I don't feel like bringing ALL that laundry home and then bringing it all back. I'd rather just get a roll of quarters from my mom and do laundry here.

UGH.

I called the bank people today, again. They're so retarded, I swear. I hate talking to incompetent people. I would rather have talked to the little girl I talked to last week instead of some crazy woman. The woman I talked to this time said they'd call me back. Well, here I am 2+ hours later and still no call. IDIOTS. If I don't have enough money for this alleged double overdraft charge (which they've done before because of the way they input stuff), how the hell am I going to have another $14 dollars to pay for 2 days' worth of "negative fund" charges? People today are such jerks. I don't even have that much money in the first place. Because, yea, my $8/hr. job that I work 6 hours a week at will really be able to pay that off.

I think I'm just going to lay down and cry now. And when I wake up hopefully the baby dragon will still be sleeping. If it's awake when I call the bank or awakened by whoever I talk to, it won't be very pleasant. I'll probably be charged with assault. Or attempted murder. The prices other people have to pay for their own stupidity.

I'm telling you, you need to go see them in person. Even if you have to ride your bike way the hell over there. Companies are always more helpful when you show up in person. It's kind of like saying, "I mean business, now get it done," or something like that. ::shrugs::
