It never fails. Wrote a $100 check and the people I wrote the check to have been taking their sweet time cashing it. Now, when I didn't need it, somebody else comes by demanding $40 more. Forty dollars that puts me under the amount of the check and put me at risk of overdraft fees. Overdraft fees I can't afford to incur as I've another $100 charge coming from my next paycheck.
So, they don't want to cash the check when I have the money in the bank, but now that I don't... to the bank we go! It's hard not to think I stole Fate's girlfriend and they're still bitter about it! Well, one issue at a time I guess.

"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
