Unauthorized Charge

My weekend was all right. I can’t remember the specifics, and it seemed a littler shorter than usual, but it was all right. It could’ve been a bit more interesting since Steve text messaged me on my phone and invited me to join him on his way to Vegas. Unfortunately, he is there until Tuesday, which means I would’ve had to take off work. Compound this with the short notice, and other things, and there are many reasons why I didn’t go. It would’ve been a lot of fun though—gambling and winning tons of money. :) Alas, maybe next time….

Oh yeah, and today I discovered an unauthorized purchase on my American Express card. It was for some WLI Travel Values or something like that, and the purchase was made two days ago. I know for a fact I didn’t use that card—let alone any other one—on Friday. Also, I certainly would’ve remembered making a $72 purchase. So I had to call the credit card company and report the charge. Now I have to wait for them to send me a new card. What sucks of course is that in the meantime I can’t use the card. I wonder how they got my number. This is the first time someone has stolen my number, and oddly, this is the card I’ve had for the least amount of time. I do make some online purchases, so who knows. I guess it could be worse.

In other exciting news, a few days ago our bathroom got cleaned. It was getting VERY nasty, with giant cobwebs forming everywhere, dozens of spiders making themselves at home, dead ants all over the shelves in the shower, mold taking over the tiles, and just general dirt and grime everywhere. One morning I entered to see a complete overhaul—sparkling sink, shower, toilet, etc. No more spiderwebs or ants! Now I don’t have to feel bad when I send someone in there! ;) I suspect it was Ginny that finally got fed up and cleaned it, because tonight I entered to see a Bathroom Cleaning Sign-up Sheet taped to the wall. Apparently we are supposed to take turns every week. Good grief! Fort the record, I barely make any of the mess. I don’t leave hair in the sink from shaving, puddles on the floor from poor aiming, water and dirt all over the counters, etc. I think things like that should be cleaned by the person who made the mess—not that I’m looking forward to cleaning toilets and moldy showers. I’ve never cleaned a bathroom in my life, and it’s something I’d consider worth paying someone else to do! YUCK!

Anyway, another week is about to begin, and we are that much closer to Christmas. I have bought only one gift so far, and will go shop for my sister very soon. She and I are going to brave the Brea Mall next weekend in search of gifts for our parents since we have no idea what to get them this year. Ahh the Holidays!
