Oh God I hate trying to be a grown up.

Usually I pay rent a week or so early when I pay my credit card, but this month I paid the credit card early before the utility statement was in. So I forgot about rent until the 5th which I was certain was the day it was due. So last night I logged in to pay it and saw a late fee, and noticed it was 12:30. I just thought hf well, that's what I get for procrastinating, and paid it. I thought it would be worth it to call and see if they would forgive the late fee since it was only half an hour late.

And after that I had trouble falling asleep because I was all angsty about responsibility and how weird it feels to be living alone, even though I've been living away from my parents for 6 years and alone for 2.

And then this morning after I slept through my alarm and scrambled to get ready for work on time I saw a nastygram shoved under my door with all sorts of stuff about failure to pay rent and legal action and vacating the premises. So I had to call my boss and say I'd be late and go to the apartment office and wait for someone to pass me off to someone else who just me to wait until the manager got off the phone. Who said rent is actually due the 3rd( I'm going to dig through my lease to check that) and looked up that I paid last night and tore up the notice.

So I had a crappy morning.
