Well today stated off nicely. I had a nice case of allergies when I woke up this morning and had to take some benedryl to get things under control. I haven't had any allergies that bad in a long time. Of course I have never been in Minneapolis this time of year so it is entirely possible that something doesn't agree with me here...

In addition to that I got a notice from my online bill payer that they could no longer find my checking account to withdraw funds from. So I call my credit union up, and they tell me that they know there is a problem, and that it should be fixed tomorrow. Apparently there was a problem with all of their ACH transactions, both debits and credits to the account... Hmm sounds to me like a technology problem. This isn't the first time either. This is the second time this year, I have had a problem with ACH transactions and about the 4th time in 2 years. However, I will not name my financial institution.

So I get to see if this is all fixed tomorrow when I have my ACH transactions re-sent to my financial institution to have them processed again. If it doesn't work, I'm closing my account... Since I'm sick stupid things like this. I think I'll write to the President and CEO and see what he has to say. Being a financial services consultant, I know this isn't completely un-heard of, however the number of times that it has happened to me is a bit much.

Ok off the soap box.

It's Thursday night, I get to back tonight, and get on a plane tomorrow morning to back home to California. Yay!
