a true scare

well i haven't posted here in a while because the past few days have been pretty horrible. i had someone steal money out of both my checking and savings accounts and have spent tons of time on the phone with my bank's customer service. nothing like logging into your account online and seeing more than $1,000 vanish into thin air! i thought i was going to suffer a heart attack. but thankfully everything was resolved today after i got a new debit card and made a phone call to change my pin and had to go through a number of verification questions. now i can finally breathe more easily.

next week should be nice. i took thursday off for a dental appointment that i don't have to worry about paying for now. also my rent was due which was making me nervous. i guess i learned that i have to be way more aware of my surroundings when at an atm machine drawing money. someone must have copied my information and watched me enter my pin number. people can be so horrible sometimes, and to complete strangers. it doesn't make sense to me. i could never steal money from anyone. i can't remember the last time i felt so angry. i was snapping at everyone and resenting the fact that i was at work when meanwhile the money i worked hard to save was gone in an instant. seeing that online made my chest go cold and numb, and the panic set in.

anger is a very horrible emotion, it just takes over you. and i'll have to be a lot more careful in the future to avoid having to go through something like this again.
