I have about 1 to many checking accounts. For the most part I’ve been able to keep them in order and pay the proper things out of the right accounts. Until now.
Last week, I realized that I hadn’t paid for the Jetta. So, I hopped onto the VW account and sent off a payment. No big deal. That was on Saturday. On Tuesday, I was updating all of my information in Quicken and realized that the money hadn’t been taken out of the account yet. I logged in and it showed that it had been paid, so I assumed that it just wasn’t showing yet on my banks account. Then I got a notice in the mail saying that my credit union account was overdrawn. This is the account that I don’t put too much money in for the most part. It’s for recreational stuff. I usually keep less than $200 in that account.
Well, I’m still getting notices and as of now I’m at -$284. I’m going in tomorrow to get the account squared away and also to close it. Since I won’t have my side job anymore this account is pointless and inconvenient. It also just begs for stuff like this to happen.
I should be freaking out, but I really do not care. It’ll all be taken care of tomorrow and life will go on.

Today’s Run: 4.67 miles | 50:00 | 10:43
This was my first “Steady State” run. I decided to do most of my speedwork at the gym until it gets cooler. Otherwise all that is going to happen on these runs (at least until I’m way more fit) is that I’m going to blow the hell up on my runs. So, I did 20 minutes @ 11:00ish, 15 minutes @ 9:53, and then 15 minute cool down around 10:53 or so. I felt really good and there were no issues with my banged toe.
I’m hurting from hitting the door yesterday. My foot hurts and so does my hamstring and neck. Hopefully, it will feel fine shortly. Also, my left knee is bothering me, but what else is new. Since I fell on it last year in Peru it’s been a whiny bitch. I should NOT have done those squats last week.
Tomorrow: EZ 45 – 60 minute run. Will cut short if still achy or my knee is bothering me.



As I’m sure many of my regular readers know, I’m a little personal finance freak. I love it. This wasn’t always the case, of course. It took me a bit to figure out that I have to spend less than I bring in. Such a hard concept to conquer, right? Anyway, this year I’ve been pretty shitty with the finances. Some of it was fatigue, some of it was just to offset the extremely shitty year that I had last year.
