Banks and other things

The first week of school was going well until personal problems set in. The bank refused to clear a check I deposited and then for some odd reason took it out twice. It's funny how I was waiting for this check since March from the IRS and now I have to wait for the bank too. They mailed the check so it won't arrive for 3-5 business days. What a load of crap. This is the kind of stuff that happens to me on a regular basis. I wonder if I'm like Stanley Yelnats in Holes? Is there some kind of curse I have to reverse; I'm really starting to wonder if that's the case. I would really like some insight into my bad luck. I'm a good, upright citizen who does pretty much everything she's supposed to. Although, as I write this I realize my dad did say that there was an Ulrich black cloud. How do make black clouds go away? Can you trace it back to the ancestors of old? It's a good day if nothing happens. I love nice, boring, and ordinary days! I absolutely ADORE them! Today was one of those days and I love it! My only wish is that I have more plain old ordinary, typical, run of the mill, boring days. Actually, one additional wish...that I would stop worrying about everything I say and do, to realize that maybe the things that I say aren't construed like I think they are, that I'm not as obnoxious as I think I am, and people aren't judging me as much as I think they are. Wow, if that could happen in one day, I think I would die of happiness.
