Can this day possibly get worse? It seems that the bank held off on clearing one of the billpays until today, because then it could clear it retroactively before the dozen little things that the Boy has set up to recur at the end of the month, and thus cause each of the little things to require a $35 overdraft fee.

I have no issue with paying the overdrafts, I just wish to hell that they'd clear things in the order which they are paid out/incurred. The difference being that they'd only get the one overdraft fee instead of ten. Which is money we can ill afford.

That's one of my rants for today. The other one is that the Boy failed his second attempt at the driving test. His turns still suck. And this is news how? I knew he needed to work on them and get more time intown. He knew. I told him that he needed to get somebody else to work with him. He shrugged and either didn't bother pursuing it or thought that he'd suddenly get it without practicing. He's in such a damn hurry to pass the damn thing that he scheduled it yesterday for today, no practicing, no road time, and then got all angry and pissy that he failed "because it's obviously my fault for being a stupid and incompetant man." Uh, hello? If you were this thing I would not still be married to you, much less contemplating having another child with you. Now I'm starving because I couldn't stop at any point this whole morning for food, because the damn bank is overdrawn "suddenly" despite having more than enough money last night and I could have sworn I had seen that check clear already... starving in the sense that I wanted to drive through and grab a burger. Not in the sense that the pantry is empty. I'm too paranoid to ever let the pantry get empty.
