Payday This Week!

by mapgirl on February 25, 2008

I am dreaming of my paycheck. I have a huge surplus of cash right now, which I am saving for the bachelorette party this weekend. I also need to have a surplus going into the next pay cycle when I send off a huge payment to one of my credit card companies. Without reserving a little from the current paycheck, I will be short on the next paycheck. I hate not having a little something in my checking account.

Also, I cannot, for the life of me, find my Lasik receipt. Since I couldn’t see a damned thing for a few days, I put it on my table with a lot of other crap. I thought I had filed it away with some other things, but I cleaned that up over the weekend to prepare my taxes and get organized, but it did not turn up. I’m going to have to call for a copy of the receipt. At least I found the reimbursement forms at work now. (HR with my new company can be a pain in the neck.)

Once that’s done and I get reimbursed, I will be able to cut my credit card balance down by about 25-30%. Woe unto me for my bureaucratic apathy! I’m paying finance charges and interest! That my children, is the cost of laziness.

Calling for a copy sounds like a good move. Congrats on finding the HR paperwork. I just discovered the library has some strange payroll stuff if you want direct deposit. Now I have to motivate myself to do it.
