Idiot, Inc.

°o° On this day in 1987, the first Disney Store opened, in Glendale, California.

°o° Two weeks until Florida! °o°

Not quite as beautiful outside today, but still 75 and warm. But I can feel the rain coalescing in the air - I wish it would fall already! I need a great storm!

I don’t know why I’m back to not sleeping. I guess because I got used to not having caffeine, so the newness of that brand of fatigue has expired. Hmm. The only thing I can come up with is that maybe it has been too hot in my apartment? I know heat theoretically makes you sleepy, but I always keep my apartment kind of cold so I can burrow under the covers for a maximized slumber experience. And there was no point in turning on the a/c because there’s a cold front coming, so it would just be a waste of money what with our abysmally inflated electric bills.

So the pre-lawyer has been screwed by the fine print. I received a notice from my apartment complex yesterday of an overdue balance, which I surmised as a mistake because I always pay my rent promptly. Turns out my rent went up when the first year of my lease expired in August, so I’ve been underpaying by thirty bucks for every month since then. Eight months of thirty bucks plus the late fees came to over three hundred dollars. I’m suck an absolute idiot. All the lease said was that the rent was subject to alteration contingent upon the leasing department’s discretion, which I failed to confirm, apparently. In my defense, no one ever brought it up; but, that’s no excuse. There goes any money I might have intended to spend on Mickey merchandise in Florida! Serves me right. Moron. And to think some day (God willing) people are going to pay me for my opinion. Idiot.
