Interesting charges to my bank account

My last three transactions in my checking account made me laugh a little this morning. I ran my debit card at Forever 21 (Halloween costume purchase) for $55.55. The second transaction was at Fuzio (short happy hour but long conversations with a friend) for $18.49. Lastly, the third transaction at Mongolian BBQ (dinner with a friend from high school) for the same as Fuzio, $18.49! WOW! Okay, so it's only three transaction that made me look twice. Made my morning after my hellish, tearful Thursday.

Overwhelming Emotions

The Stable Quliaty Care commercial that I've been seeing on CNN is breaking my heart. It makes me wonder about the "what ifs" in life. Now that's an effective commercial. You can see thier website here: stablequalitycare.org

Why isn't America safer for women?

What's going on these days with abductions, kidnapping, and domestic violence on women?? That's one of the many issues that caught my attention on CNN today.

Stop Cock Blocking Me.

I was born in California, raised in California, and will DIE in California. I love this golden state of mine so much, but living here makes it so hard for me to actually enjoy it, especially when I hit retail therapy sessions. Trying to buy things here is SOOOOO difficult. Why do I have to go through so much paper works and identification verification just to buy harmless items, yet only to get denied later?? Even one of my item that I have in my possession is still an ongoing paperwork to confirm my background checks. I've had it since July and haven't even gotten to play with it yet!!!! I'm going to bring up this retail cock blocker to someone's attention. Talk about frustrations. T_T Why can't I have my cake and eat it too?? .::EDIT::. That's ITTTTTTTT. I hit another road bump during my retail session therapy. I'm emailing my Senator tomorrow.

Pondering

Vetoed

We just got one of our bills vetoed by the Governor's office that stated our bill would result in significant Proposition 98 General Fund cost pressures. Umm.. okay. Weren't we prancing around the entire Capitol community with songs and phrases about how our bill was a fiscal bill with NO costs? Thanks for ignoring us for the past several months. Now I wonder whether or not children that are at risk of abuse and neglect will be placed on priority for child care services. There is already paid programs for child care services in California, our bill was just to ensure that children under JCS who are at risk or neglected be placed under priority. Since when is there a cost in placing children on priority lists? Muy buenos, Governor.
