Death by a thousand cuts. Today has consisted primarily of minor annoyances. First, the power went out right after I got up (It's about 10 degrees out, so this could actually have been a major annoyance... Except that it came back on after about 45 minutes). Second, school called and I had to pick up my oldest son because he was sick. Then, I went to the post office, where my debit card was declined. Turns out my bank sent me a replacement due to a security breach... That I never got... And then cancelled my old card without telling me. I am now without a card for a week until the new one arrives. This better not all be a lead up to another crappy birthday. >_<
