Yeah, this stuff can get so that one has very little life left. In this dimension the extended family worked better than the nuclear does today.

I start at 8-830 and hang up at 4-5 daily. Total unplug. That's part of the "problem". My workload is greater than my capacity.

I use my personal phone for work and get a stipend to cover the cost.
Wifey does the same. They pay for a new phone every few years, and Haley's correspondingly. But it's a bitch that she never gets a break. ///Executive life

Credit refund is now resolved. My first order was stuck in their system and after not seeing next-day updates is when it was found, refunded, and re-entered over the phone.
Next day, only some of the order was available and season was winding down so I chose to cancel that order since an opportunity for a 100+ mile w/e had come and gone.

Question is - since I now have a -444.00 balance - do I get 2% cash back on gas still?
