Panic attack

I logged in to my internet bank today to check that everything was under control. I grateful I did since it wasn't. I discovered that having bought tickets to London spontanously and in a hurry and decing I'd best put them on my credit card since I didn't have time to transfer money from my savings account (I don't spend money I don't have - I just use my credit card to hold on to my money as long as possible and as a practical stepping stone) I had managed to overspend and passed my credit limit (that same week I had already bought to sets of return tickets and I had august spendings upaid as yet as they were due september 30). F***! I tried to do some damage control: I arranged to pay august's spendings, I conntacted my bank about what had happened and I tried to phone Sterling (and finally managed). I was successful and will not have to pay any penelty for my overdraft since I've laready arranged a payment and my ticket home tomorrow is as it shpould be. Phew. I wasnät too comfortable for a while there.

Whilst waiting for a reply from my bank and for the phone queus at Sterling to diminish I cleaned out the sewage pipes for the kitchen sink. This morning I discovered that they were apparantly plugged (the water wouldn't go away) so it was necessary. And it was awfully disgusting. I don't believe they've ever been cleaned out - they were the worst set of pipes I've ever cleaned. Ugh! But it's done and I can feel better about myself. Maybe this was divine punmishment for my carelessness with my credit card. Well, I've learnt my lesson and wil be well rid of the card by new year.
