I thought today was payday

I have no idea why I would think such a thing. For some reason I had the date September 2nd in my mind. We've never been paid on the first day of school unless it falls on a Friday. I checked my bank account this morning and surprised to see that not only did the pay not hit but my account was overdrawn.

I tried to change the auto-deduction date for my rent for this month because I knew I was getting paid after the 1st. Well clearly I failed at that.

So that has been fun. Oh well I guess another 2 days really won't make much of a difference.

I'm sorry to hear this happened. It's not fun when it does.

I'm trying to pay a bill but it's not recognising my bankcard.
