susandennisThe Seahawks are playing a nationally televised home game tonight. The crowds started about 10:30 am and are now - two hours before game time - at a fevered pitch. Happily, I don't need to leave here until after kick off and will be back way before the streets get crowded again.
I got an email today from Capital One saying my 'case' for reimbursement had been denied. They apparently don't feel any ownership of their allowing me to send a payment to a Capital One credit card that was closed five years ago. They (Capital one) suggested I call Capital One. So I did. I called Capital One Credit Card - clearly the Jenifer Garner people because 1. when I told the bot HUMAN I got one immediately - no waiting and 2. the one I got was 100% easily understandable. She got the problem immediately but couldn't fix it. She sent me to the second person who was not quite as easy to understand (although, clearly an native English speaker) and she fixed it right away. Paper check coming in two weeks. She started to explain how I should handle a check written on paper and I told her I was old and remembered them. She giggled. It was done and dusted in under 5 mins. I should have started there.
I have not done much today. I did remove the cat door. It's not a long term solution but it made me feel a little better today. But mainly I just sat around wondering if my phone was broken. I've never been so happy to hear about a jaw dislocation. In My Life.

Also, thank you. Thank you to all of you Biggie fans out there. It was very comforting to read all your comments while I waited. As I just texted my brother, I feel guilty for all the lives he stole from other cats after when whipped through his own 9.

Gah ... I wonder if anyone saw him flying down.
