Troll Notice
Luke, don’t post here. Not today, not tomorrow, not ever. You are not welcome. Comments will be deleted on sight.
Onward.
The Teaching Front
I got the call to sub today, which is good. I made as much today as I would in a week at any other job I could have got. Good news there. Both classes of students were good natured, sharp and didn’t give me any trouble.
I suspect there will be more opportunities, the only bad news is that I won’t see the first pay from this until the end of July.
The Financial Front
My bank has steadily been fucking me for a negative balance incurred courtesy of a wonderful policy that allows them to jam me for fees after three withdraws from my savings account. Regular readers know that I hate banks with a passion and that the only reason I have an account is due to the universal nature of direct deposit.
Well, three days ago they started fucking me for eight bucks a day the negative balance continues. I swear this is as bad as a checking account if not worse. So the hunt is on to find a replacement bank here in the next couple of months because this shit isn’t going to stand at all.
My mom did come through with funding to cover the trouble but the upshot is that my parents have troubles of their own. Further support will not be forthcoming.
So it goes.
The good news is that we should move out of the woods here in the next few days. My mother’s birthday present will be a bit late but things will be looking up here shortly.
Other Fronts
It has been a hell of a day and my head is about to split open. We’ve had nothing but rain for a week now. Trinity and I are starting to wonder if we are not going to get a repeat of the Summer of 2005 (which really doesn’t deserve the name) where we lost June and July to a Korea like monsoon season.
Let us pray this isn’t the case.
Needless to say, zero progress on personal writing or RPN-04 today. Maybe tomorrow.
Respects,
