Today has been trying.

Little things just seem to be building up and getting to me, not pissing me off per se so much as building up vein ticks as they come.

I went for the movie Eat Pray Love with Julia Roberts in it. Not bad. Not the best thing I've ever watched, but it did the trick in calming me down enough to be at peace with the world. For about half an hour.

Then vein ticks began building up again.

My little plastic gargling cup has gone missing. I opened the medicine cabinet expecting rinse off and my cup was gone.

Shirley was cleaning up yesterday and I imagine my unnamed cup was tossed unknowingly. I'm somewhat upset. It was the perfect size, durable and handy. And now it's gone.

I don't have a spare on me.

I just need this day to be over.

Chase sent me a debit card with my name printed wrong. I've got two cards from Citibank, two from HSBC, three from Wells Fargo and none of them had any problems. My first card from Chase and they screw up. Calling the 1-800 number was useless since I haven't gotten my ATM pin set-up.

Calling the branch I opened my account in was rather useless too. "You'll have to call the 1-800 number."

Well, I don't have my pin set-up. Not like I mentioned it at the beginning of the conversation, nooo.

"You can come into the branch to set up the pin. We won't be able to order a new card for you though."

Okay sure, I'll come in tomorrow. Not like I have anything else better to do with my life than to go to banks on the weekend and deal with the bank's mistakes.

I wonder if it would be rude to sit down, ask to borrow a pair of scissors and then snip the card up in front of the personal banker before stapling his tie to the desk.

Hmm... Probably would be overkill to snip the card in front of them. I'm keeping the tie option though.
