I just had one of those heart-attack moments today when I got my mail.
No, I didn't win the Publisher's Clearing House prize. No way.
I got a notice from my bank that I had bounced 3 checks. Sometimes my math skills aren't so great and I end up over drawing by like $5.00 or something. It happens. But lately, I've been financially solvent in a very happy financially-solvent way. So, I was understandably confused about bouncing 3 checks.
And then I looked at the amount of check #103 (it's a new-ish account) and discovered that I had, somehow, perhaps while in a coma, had written a check for $1,710.00
Huh? No sir. If I spend that much money, I sure as hell remember it.
So, I looked at my checkbook and discovered that said check was written for $17.10. Ahhh, the importance of a decimal point. My math teacher wasn't just whistling Dixie.
So, I hustled over to the bank and pointed out that they had royally screwed my pooch. Long story short,
they fixed it, refunded my money (my account was like -$1,500.00) and licked my boots. It was kind of fun not being the screw-up for once.
But lord, for about 5 minutes there, I thought I was going to die.
