NOT how I wanted to begin 2010

[sistermagpie]

I threw out this month's Metrocard instead of my old one.

Iow, I started the year by throwing out $90.00. Go me.

Am requesting as much of a refund as I can get.

Edit: OMG, great news! Too complicated to explain, but problem solved. Hurrah! 2010 is good again!

Damn. Damndamndamndamn. We use light rail here, and I the did the card deal for my last contract job downtown so I know and damn. I'm sorry. Hope it gets better?

Damn.

Damn is definitely right!

Wow, everyone seems to be starting 2010 badly. I'm sorry about that. :(

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

That's what it looks like from my flist, definitely! Which on the bright side, reminds me that it could be worse.

Ick. :( At least... you didn't step on a puppy on the way to the trashcan? (Yeah, that's all I got. *g*)

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

That is actually helpful! When I got home the dog did something very cute, which cheered me up. She just leapt over something in a particularly graceful way, so she was suspended in the air for a second.

Yay! Pets are awesome. :)

They're generally really good about refunds because they know how much of it you've already used. But I'm sorry because you just got the TransitChek thing worked out!

IKR? I've got bad Metrokarma or something. I need it exorcised. Hopefully I'll get it worked out on the phone today.

Your icon is just what I needed to see about it, though.

Oh man, I'm sorry.... I hope the MTA is lenient about this!

Luckily they have some insurance plan in place if it's an unlimited card. You can file two claims a year, so let's hope I don't do this again in March.

Oh shit. I'm sorry:(

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

It's so frustrating. I can just see myself doing it over and over.

[samaranth.livejournal.com]

ouch. I mean...

...just ouch.

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

Naturally it's something I'm usually so paranoid about I compulsively check it over and over.

[jewelsong.livejournal.com]

That is so like something I would do....I once threw out my return train tickets when I got to my destination. I had to purchase a one-way (and much more expensive ticket) back.

Bah. Hope you get the refund. What a pain.

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

Arrgh! It seems like we shouldn't be able to do something so stupid so easily.

[ptyx.livejournal.com]

Ouch! But think positively: you already had your ration of bad luck for the year. From now on, you'll have good luck.

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

I have been trying to think of it that way. Hopefully this will be the dumbest thing I'll do all year!

[go-back-chief.livejournal.com]

Oh god, I'm always afraid I'll do that! Do you think you can get it?

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

I'm always afraid of it too! Which is why I couldn't believe it when I swiped the card yesterday evening and it said I had actually done it. Usually I compulsive check it. Hopefully I can get a pretty good refund, though. Since it's an unlimited monthly card they have something you can do.

[strangemuses.livejournal.com]

Oh my gosh, that's horrible. I hope you can get a refund.

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

Luckily there is something I can get, I'm pretty sure. Hopefully it'll be taken care of by the end of the day!

ROFL - but, yeah, really annoying - good to hear you got it sorted. :D

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

Now it's just completely funny.:-)
