Today, I made the mistake of checking my bank balance online.
When I saw that there was a sum in there that is far too high for it to be the 12th, I immediately panicked and wondered why my student loan funds didn't get sucked out.
Upon closer inspection I saw that they had indeed tried to zap the funds, but because I had balanced my check register 28 cents in the wrong direction, instead of my lender getting their money, my bank got $30.
Interesting how that is. They couldn't be sure that I was good for 28 fucking cents?
I called my lender to see if they were going to try to draft it again and to express that if they did it would merely get bounced again because of that whole 28 cent issue.
Oh well, I'll just pretend this is a blessing in disguise. I'll send my lender a slightly smaller check and have gas money until my next payday.

Even MY crappy bank doesn't bounce for sums under $1.
