a quiet night at home

Tonight I actually have all to myself! I think I'm going to do laundry, unpack, and then... who knows! If anyone wants to keep me company for some of this, feel free to query, but I reserve the right to decline all offers.

I need to do something nice for fenwickrysen. He told me that he uses the phrase "Choose your own reality tunnel" to help him maintain a good work ethic. And so far today I've found that a few rules+that phrase have gone a long way. w00t!

I need to decide what to do for my birthday. Do I simply celebrate the day of as best I can? Do I buy myself something nice? Do I have a party sometime in October? Do I have an orgy?

I know somewhere on the order of five people have already volunteered for Folsom shifts, but you almost all told me in person. I'm shrinking the schedule a little and will try to have people there before and after but will not be able to guarantee it.

Here's a poll to simplify things:

Evil Bills

What do you do when a hotel charges your credit card for reservations you cancelled?
I have the cancellation numbers...

Do I call and argue with the hotel or the credit card?

Paying bills makes me Angry. I can't believe that the late fee on my cellphone doubles the cost of the bill. It makes me want to hit things.

I hate you all right now. Yes, you. All of you. The world just sucks. I will rain my vengeance down upon the earth. Oh yes, I will.

Addendum: That's it. I'm putting all of my bills on automatic payment wherever possible. However much they MIGHT stick me for by sneaking charges past me can't POSSIBLY be as bad as the late fees I'm paying when I forget.

Oh, and I still hate you all. Every last one of you. Now I'm going to clean my room/unpack. And I'm pissed off about it too. Because the world SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS.
