Friday the Thirteenth--4 days late
Yesterday was a good day despite the list of mishaps--
Almost missed my trian to NY (not a big issue, one comes every 20 minutes or so)
The bank would not give me cash back on a deposit (yet I could walk around the corner to the ATM)
The fabric store would not take the shop supervisor's credit card number without the physical card was present--even though he called earlier to verify someone would be coming by to purchase the fabric with his card number.
My phone stopped working.
T-Mobile in NY would not extend my plan or sell me a phone because my area code is from WI (but my billing address is out of NJ).
I locked my keys in my car after driving 2 hours to Delaware.

Sam-
I'm glad to hear that things went well save the problems. I'm glad that some of it could be handled by alturnate measures. It does suck to lock your keys in your though (Lord knows I've done it enoigh).
Chris
That sucks! Especially T-mobile and the fabric store. Corporations are so soul-less and stupid. If we still had independant local businesses we would know local shop owners and they would trust us and not make our day wretched.
Then again - indepentent local shop owners don't have much to do with huge mutlinational credit card companies or global communications.
I don't have the answer. Sorry you had a crap day.
