Stupid Walmart

Well, probably not that stupid, but irritating nonetheless.. So I went grocery shopping last night, night before payday like I do often. Its sometimes less busy, and I can just write a check, money is there the next morning. Well, I get told as I hand over the check, AFTER shopping for an hour and AFTER standing in line for 30 minutes, that they now do electronic check deposit, meaning that my check will go through immediately.

That sucks. Now I have the option of probably bouncing a check, or putting everything back and doing it all again tomorrow. I asked if there was a charge if it didn't go through, she went off and asked. The line behind me was getting longer, and I was tired and wanted to go home. I went ahead and had the check go. Luckily, it was accepted, so honestly I dunno if I'll get hit with a charge or not. It just sucks, no more floating a check at Walmart. Wonder if Food Lion has done the same thing yet :/

Oh.. four day weekend upcoming.. I'm so excited! I plan on relaxing and reading my new books, doing a bit of gardening and some house things. I might drag the kids out to fireworks, I dunno. Course I don't really know which kids will be at home. Megan might be at Robin's, Vince works every day but for Monday, and Kat might go to North Carolina with her friend Brook. So it might be a more peaceful weekend than I even expected.

My last unit is almost done for this quarter, then a week off till I start the next quarter. Family law & composition are my two classes.. blech on those! Overall I'm enjoying classes, and I do feel like I'm learning. I'm not sure I'm getting as much out of it as I could at a traditional school, but since I don't have the time for a normal school, this is what I got.
