Take a look at this picture. It’s a shot of my girlfriend working on a project for one of her classes….But take the same picture, and adjust the color, and this is going on in the background:

And in case you wanna see it closer:

MY CAT HAS FANGS APPARENTLY!?!?! Remind me not to make him mad!
This is him later that night:

Bad Blanche Devereaux! Bad Blanche Hollingsworth/Devereaux!!

THESE GOD DAMN CATS!!!

My girlfriend and I tried another brand of cat food on our cats… NO GO!! They only like the EXPENSIVE STUFF….. They’ve been starving themselves for two days in protest!!

I couldn’t take it anymore so I went to Safeway at 11pm to get them their expensive-ass cat food.. (Snobs!)

Go to Safeway, get the food, check out…….and my DEBIT CARD IS DECLINED….

Now I just checked my bank account. I am no where NEAR $0……so what the hell is going on?
Try it again, and it says, ‘can not complete transaction!’

I think all the regular Safeway employees were slaughtered earlier today and the streetwalkers took over the store…Cos the guy ‘checking’ me out looked like he slept behind the store when his shift was over. He had the ‘homeless man hat’ dirt all over his clothes and face..and that big ‘homeless man jacket’……He wasn’t even wearing a Safeway apron…..or a name tag!!

So I have a homeless guy ‘checking’ my groceries, the dude in front of me used an EBT card and the woman behind me was making CAT NOISES at my cat food….I should be the least embarrassed out of this entire group, right? Well I was mortified…….. My card just got ‘declined’ in front of a LOT of people….Weird people….but a LOT of them!

….but then I remembered getting THIS letter from Bank Of America:

(Basically it says they f’d up in some way and my debit card number MAY have been slipped…..)

So I tell him to ’suspend’ the transaction, get in my car and drive 2 miles to a Bank Of America ATM… Activate the new card, and grab cash out, then head back to Safeway. (Lets not even talk about how I chased some guy all the way into The Madison Pub because he left his debit card in the ATM right next to me!)

When I get back to Safeway, I felt like I had to explain my situation to this guy…Like he was judging me or something..(realistically I wouldn’t be surprised if he was walking around with a dump in his pants…he looked THAT homeless).

Not only did I say: ‘oh, Bank Of America sent me a new Debit Card, I had to get it’….. I also used my new debit card for the purchase DESPITE the fact that I took $40 out of the ATM when I activated my card!!!!

I felt like I had to prove to this homeless looking checker that I DO have MONEY…..and I didn’t just run to my friends house and beg them at 11:00pm for $20 so I could buy cat food..

FML?? YES…FML!

*As I am writing this, ‘Toopie’ is eating for the first time in two days…snobby bitch!*

Seriously….. I was never home this much, and now he’s extra
cuddly and needy….

Quick Note: I DO have a thumb!
