I'm trying hard. I'm trying to shoehorn oodles of knowledge into what I'll readily admit is a large head, but still... However, I've begun to think the fates are colluding against me. Things pop up that I really don't need to have happening right now. So far, a missing/never sent ATM card for a brand new bank account, Bank of America screwing up my consolidation for me, and the newest crisis, the sealing of the driveway. Thursday my driveway was supposed to be sealed. I set up the appointment and was told to make sure there was no cars in the driveway. Not a problem. Except that it poured. No sealant. Friday, it rained again...no sealant. Nothing done over the weekend. Today, I came home from review and put the car in the driveway since nothing had been done. There was no stakes in the lawn and no phone calls regarding possible rescheduling. I just went out to get the mail and found a bill in my door dated 7/7 for a sealant that never happened and a stake in the corner of my lawn. I blew. It's probably good for the receptionist that she was on the other line just now and I had to leave a message. If a stake in my lawn is considered a driveway sealant and they expect me to pay $75 for the privilege, we'll see just how much contracts I've learned this month. There is no hell like a bar exam student scorned.
