well, i'm crotchety today... i spent an hour and a half at safeway shopping, got through the line and wrote a check to pay for the groceries -- same amount as always. the cashier called the manager over and they declined my check because it was the first one i've ever written to safeway. this is true but i still haven't gotten my replacement cards (remember that TWO weeks ago i lost my wallet and reported everything as lost). the manager told me that they would only take a check for up to $25. since i only shop at safeway every five weeks or so, i had a couple hundred dollars worth of stuff in the shopping cart. the money comes out of the same account as when i normally pay with my card... it just doesn't make sense to me. i got in the car and went home -- all pissed off...
now i'm home trying to cook dinner with what i've got in the house... which isn't much.
