Nov. 2nd, 2005 10:03 pmI ordered new checks on line the other day. They arrived today, really fast. Unfortunately, they sent the wrong check style. (I have checks with a stub on top for recording the info; they sent ones with carbons that won't even fit my checkbook.) I called the bank's 24-hour customer service number, dander up and ready to let fly, and got the sweetest lady who was very sorry and is fixing the order ASAP. So now I have to find something else to use up this mad. What's Bush up to? ;-))
I met friends for dinner & the theatre (After the Quake, based on the work of Haruki Murakami, at Steppenwolf - highly recommended), and when I got to the restaurant I realized I had left my glasses at work. Aaaaarrrrgh!!! Fortunately, Margaret always carries a couple of extra pairs of reading glasses (she stocks up at the dollar store), and so I'm fixed for tonight. I was able to read the menu and the playbill, and type this journal entry.
There's an odd story in my local community newspaper today. You probably have to be familiar with the reputation of the students at the University of Chicago to truly appreciate how odd it is. Headline: Noise complaints prompt meeting with U. of C. dean; Students criticized by neighbor for loud partying. The University has never been noted for what the article calls "late-night revelry"!
