why is my life so hard
so today was a great day. in fact, these last few days have been great. daisy is back in town, and that means i'm very happy.
until this afternoon, when we had a nasty meeting where someone in the group kept lying to show s/he knew everything when s/he clearly did not, and it happened to be my realm of knowledge. that bugged me. because then i had to tread carefully to explain the correct way without making it look like s/he was wrong.
and then i found out i'll likely have to work this sunday. gah.
and then i went for a run. it was a short 5.1k run, but it felt good. i decided to turn right today and head to the number 1 bridge instead of the usual number 3 bridge. and it was very exciting. the air felt good. and smelled nice. and Will gave me some good music suggestions that were excellent. and runkeeper, this new gps app that tracks your run, is excellent.
on a different note, i downloaded a new syncing software for my mac mini to sync between my two computers and gmail. it works like charm. i only had the 15 day trial, because i wanted to see if it worked or if it screwed everything up. syncing software is always one or the other.
my trial ends in a few days, and i am very very satisfied with it. so i went to buy it. and a blogger i read often posted a discount code yesterday. so everything was going well.
until paypal said i couldn't use my credit card, and needed to enter my routing and account number for my bank.
WHAT?!
isn't this what happens to my mother right before she calls me panicked that she made a big mistake? so i went on paypal's website. apparently, they require that you be approved sometimes. so i had to enter my bank account to get approval. and this is a two freaking day process. they'll deposit a few cents into my account and then i need to go back onto paypal and tell them how many cents they gave me.
and get this.
they asked for my bloody online banking password. i think not, buddy. i don't care how trusted you are. you're not getting that. nobody knows that but me.
i can't believe it. i want to give this developer my money! i'll give him whatever he wants! but why is it so freaking hard!

I think it was that extra .1k in your run that decided your fate for the rest of the day. Should have just capped it at 5k.

probably. monk would have cried if he saw me stop at 5.1k.
