No, I'm a positive person. You're like Santa Claus... on prozac... in Disney Land... getting laid.
for reasons far beyond my understanding, i have to switch from my bank [which is actually a credit union] to a bank bank, before i file bankruptcy, or i will have problems. it's actually not all that far beyond my understanding. lets just say they work differently, and it would behoove me to do so. i so opened a new checking account. and i got to order new checks. how exciting! after deliberation... do i go plain and cheap, do i go fun, do i go with cute baby animals? i chose fun, but an understated fun. i chose these checks. they are childlike and fun, but monochrome and subtle. right? i think so. but this is what i received. i can't go around writing checks with these!! i'm extremely lazy, and do something about these checks, i will have to return to the branch from which i ordered them. that takes effort on my part. but ... even tho i don't write that many checks... they are a statement about me. the design i chose says something. and that design says "i am nine years old." i'm sorry... i can't write checks with these checks. i have to take them back. they are way too over the top for me. i have to draw the line somewhere, and that's where i am drawing it.

well, you SOUND nine, but that's beside the point. i am with you on the importance of getting checks that fit your personality. i loooove my sesame street checks, but i always get excited when i get to use the oscar the grouch one (he's my favorite sesame street character). it's the little things that keep you happy.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm sorry, but seeing Jodi tell Adi to shut up in her blog comments just struck me as incredibly funny, for some reason.
Yeah, I'm probably not getting enough sleep.

um...........
I like the checks you wound up getting.
When I run out of checks this go round, I think I will get the ones you got.
This is what I have now:
