I was at the NBC 4th of July special a few nights ago! When you peons finally get to the future, tune your tube to NBC at night for the Sheryl Crow clip, maybe you'll see me :)

Earlier this week, Alex popped in from JFK instead of flying back to Boston on his way back from Finland, so a few of us went out to dinner at a nice Italian restaurant which only took cash. I hate cash, so of course I had none on me. And Alex only had Euros. So I had to leave the restaurant to find an ATM. I checked my account online yesterday and here's what I see: after my withdrawal, I had exactly $1.01, and then of course I get hit with the "you didn't use our ATM fine" and I'm down to -0.76. Fantastic. Now I'll get charged another $30 for being under. I hate checking accounts too.

I'm jetting off to Loveland for 10 days tonight. I hate packing. There's always a nagging fear that I forgot something important. Although I suppose in the US that doesn't really matter cause you can buy whatever you need anywhere. Except that I have negative funds.
