robbed

Should bite tongue when making blanket statements such as, "I only have good memories associated with New York City."

One individual spent this afternoon making v. good New York memories on a Bloomingdale's shopping spree. WITH MY CREDIT CARDS. While yours truly spent afternoon canceling cards and mentally accusing strange people in quirky East Village bar, Shopping Spree Sally was racking up total of $1350 in purchasing fun at Bloomingdale's, the MTA and some cheap accessory depot-type store (God knows THAT wasn't a Fish purchase!).

Am in shock. Fine, fine folks at VISA have assure that after 30-45 day investigation, said money will be returned to checking account. THIRTY DAYS? Was ENTIRE paycheck gone in a blink.

Am realizing that should have said was Shopping Spree Sally getting coifed on Lexington Avenue yesterday afternoon. Damn. Maybe next time am robbed, will think more quickly. Could have had free $200 hair-do on said fine, fine folks at VISA. Indeed.
