Can I Hear - "Lowest Level of Stupid" Please?

Yes, I've hit the all time low - the level where I can shake my head and go "SNAP THE **** outta it, LYS! Where is your head at?". When I do most of my finances, I'm multi-tasking - multi-tasking to where my wallet is now screaming in dire agony..why...

BECAUSE I PAID MY FORMER ROOMATE'S ELECTRIC BILL! See - I used to do everything electronically and didn't really think much about it. Well, when I moved, I got an account, she closed out hers and all is perfect with the world -well, until today when I got a disconnect notice for $204.34. I knew that wasn't right because I paid it on USAA Bill Pay last month for $77 and this month for about $127. Both were paid. Both came out of my account - yet it showed up as no payment.

Then it dawned on me - let me log into G's old account and, yup! There it was -- Payments applied. What a stupid @#*@*# costly mistake. So, with that, I'm calling the electric company and going "What part of "Don't you get it" don't you get?" and praying that they will see that yes, I am blond, yes I tried to screw in my own lightbulb and they will take pity on my idiot self. However, just in case, my emergency fund is now down $204.34. Thank god I had it. *grumble grumble grumble* but its scheduled to go to the RIGHT account out of USAA. I got the screen prints and everything.

You know when this mess is over, my happy ass is telling USAA to delete that old account AND QUICK!
