Okay this isn't really about PTSD except that I had the shakes for most of the day, but I need to vent. Hope you don't mind.

Day started out by going to the bank and finding out my disability checks have been discontinued (Supposably I got over paid for a few years and now I owe about 10,000. I called a month or so ago and thought an arrangement for lower payments was in place.) Well I'd been saving money to pay my back property taxes so I took out what the county notified me that I needed and still have enough left for my mortgage this month.

I get to the courthouse and find out they added $45 interest for this month. So I still owe them and another $150 penalty is about to be added.

Finally, I've been saving for two years for a new computer. I go to "Staples" and buy a Dell Inspiron package. Get home and set everything up only to find I can't use it to get on line. There is no internal modem. I use my roommate's puter to go to the Dell site to try to buy a modem. The people there seem to think everyone has high speed internet or cable. Guess what neither is available in our area and there is no way I can afford a satellite set up and fees. After an hour of being transfered from one department to another I am finally told no internal modem is available for this model. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I lost it and told them I'm returning the computer and will never buy anything from Dell again. (Which I fully intend on doing as well as writing their customer service ppl to complain.) I just hope "Staples" will take the thing back!

Well there's my rant.

Now all I need to do is calm down enough to keep the boggies away. Guess I should have stayed in my room today after all.
